The media continues to try and paint me as some raging anti-Semite, seemingly driven mainly by Restore Britain’s policy of banning both halal and kosher slaughter. My position is this. Considering the state of Britain, what happens in a Middle Eastern foreign conflict is so far down my list of priorities. Restore Britain’s politics is not defined by what happens in Palestine. The clue is in the name. Britain is our one and only priority. I opposed our involvement in the Iranian war for exactly that reason, unlike the Tories and Reform. I didn’t think it would serve our interests, and it hasn’t. At all. It has driven the cost of living up and made life more difficult for British families. We must do what is right for Britain. I believe that Hamas are murderous terrorists and I’d like to see the Israelis wipe them off the face of the planet. In fact, the best way to keep Jewish people safe in Britain is to deport the many thousands of Islamists who want them, and us, dead. That along with ending immigration from Islamic countries which so freely provide us with these scumbags. Do I think Israel is beyond criticism? No. And I certainly don’t think disapproving of certain Israeli decisions should be immediately denounced as ‘anti-semitism’. But quite frankly, I’m not overly interested. A Restore Britain Government’s foreign policy agenda will be guided by what is right for the British people, not what happens in the Middle East. That will be our sole aim and I make no apologies for it. My priority is Britain, and Britain only.
