RESTORE BRITAIN – NATIONAL POLICIES, LOCAL IMPACT

Britain needs a fresh direction, one that puts the interests of the British people first and delivers meaningful change where it matters most: in our communities, our homes and our everyday lives.

This fact sheet provides an overview of Restore Britain's national policy proposals and, importantly, what they could mean for the people of Ashford. From tackling immigration and restoring confidence in policing to reducing the tax burden, supporting families, protecting our pubs and strengthening our energy security, these policies are about shaping the future of our country.

But national politics must also make a difference locally. Whether it is helping Ashford families, supporting local businesses, giving our veterans a stronger voice or making our streets safer, residents deserve to understand how decisions made in Westminster could affect their lives here in Ashford.

I believe residents deserve transparency, honesty and the opportunity to make informed decisions. This fact sheet is intended to help start that conversation.

Putting the people before party. Building a better future for Britain and for Ashford.

Putting veterans first

Today, Restore Britain has published our comprehensive veterans policy paper, A Home Fit for Heroes.

I want Britain to become a country that properly looks after the men and women who have served in our Armed Forces.

Our proposals are substantial.

We will establish a dedicated Department of Veterans' Affairs, headed by a Cabinet-level Secretary of State.

One department responsible for veterans' welfare, pensions, compensation, housing, healthcare and employment support.

Every local authority area will have access to a dedicated Veterans Officer. Someone who can actually get things done - one point of contact to simplify the process.

We will abolish NHS prescription and dental charges for qualifying veterans and their immediate families. Free eye tests and hearing tests, too. Where NHS dentistry is unavailable, we will fund private treatment.

Veterans will receive statutory priority for social housing - nobody who served this country should be left sleeping on our streets. NOBODY.

We will introduce funded retraining for veterans whose military qualifications are not recognised in civilian life, alongside lifelong employment support. We will also encourage recruitment of former servicemen and women into our police, emergency services, prisons and border services.

And importantly - immigration enforcement roles.

We will bring post-service pensions and compensation administration together under the new department.

Bereaved families will receive dedicated support, and we will introduce a funeral contribution for veterans whose deaths were not attributable to military service.

We will legislate to stop malicious legal proceedings against veterans who served. We will not tolerate endless legal harassment of our former servicemen and women - we will legally pursue those found to be engaging in vindictive complaints against our veterans.

We will also introduce a statutory Veterans Charter, giving qualifying veterans enforceable rights rather than leaving them dependent on goodwill.

As a party, we are sick of seeing veterans treated as an afterthought.

These people served our country. Some came home with life-changing injuries. Others lost friends, colleagues and years with their families.

They have done their duty to Britain. It is time Britain did its duty to them.

That is what a Restore Britain Government will deliver.

The leader Britain needs

Big news. Rupert Lowe just beat Nigel Farage in a nationwide poll - the public are ready for something new, something fresh, something genuinely different. Finally, there is a patriotic alternative that can genuinely win - Restore Britain.

George is a superb candidate to stand for Restore Britain. 🫡🇬🇧

Hard at work in The Wicor! 💪🇬🇧

Out canvassing, listening to local people and hearing their views on what needs to change.

Politics shouldn’t just be about words — it should be about action, accountability and delivering real results for our communities.

It’s great to hear directly from residents, understand their concerns and find out what matters most to them.

At Restore Britain, we need to turn those conversations into action. I’m committed to doing whatever it takes to help make that happen.

Having strong roots in Portchester, I believe its time for action .

Less talk. More action. Real change. 🇬🇧
