In a recent GB News interview, Reform UK MP Andrew Rosindell addressed the public electoral pact proposed by Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe to Nigel Farage, indicating common ground while emphasizing the ultimate goal of defeating the current Labour government.

When asked about Lowe’s stringent conditions for cooperation—which include reversing mass immigration, mass deportations, addressing demographic changes, and acting on the “Islamification of Britain”—Rosindell noted that Lowe’s message “will resonate with Reform voters and with British people”. He highlighted shared concerns regarding the “detrimental impact” of both legal and illegal immigration, asserting that the public is “at the end of our tether” .

Rosindell also echoed Lowe’s concerns regarding British culture and heritage. “I worry that our Christian heritage, the foundations of this country, are being watered down and undermined,” he stated . When pressed on Lowe’s claims of an ongoing “Islamification,” Rosindell argued that there is an attempt by certain sections of the Islamic community to impose their ways, calling Sharia law “unacceptable” and asserting that immigrants must respect British traditions and laws or face removal .
Despite agreeing with much of Lowe’s rhetoric, Rosindell emphasized that any unified right-wing movement must be focused on replacing the Labour government, explicitly stating his preference for “Nigel Farage as our prime minister” to prevent further damage from potential left-wing alliances .
The interview subsequently shifted to the escalating migration situation in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta in North Africa, where thousands of migrants recently attempted to cross the border. Rosindell commended the Spanish authorities for taking “very tough action very quickly,” contrasting it with the perceived failure of the British state to secure its own borders . He argued that a significant portion of migrants entering Europe are ultimately heading for the UK because Britain is seen as a “soft touch” where individuals are provided with free accommodation in hotels and HMOs at the taxpayer’s expense .
Addressing allegations of fear-mongering by Reform politicians regarding the Ceuta migrants bound for Britain, Rosindell defended his party’s stance. He argued that the anger of his constituents in Romford, who are witnessing migrants moving into local HMOs, justifies the demand for strict border enforcement and the immediate deportation of illegal arrivals.
The discussion concluded with a debate over social care funding, where Rosindell forcefully rejected proposed “death taxes” reportedly considered by Labour, instead advocating for a long-term, mandatory insurance contribution scheme for young workers entering the workforce.
Rosindell’s comments underscore a potential ideological alignment between Reform UK and Restore Britain, signaling a hardening stance on immigration and cultural integration as the political right strategizes ahead of the next general election.
