Where is the racism?

I am looking but I cannot find it, all I see is what some would consider sensible policies, whilst others would see some that are not strong enough and others would say they are to strong but I have not seen anything that I would consider racist yet.

Out of interest, can anyone explain why a “Restore Britain” web site is asking for a State and Zip Code?

Or is it being funded by yet another American billionaire or think tank?

I went to have a look and I see "City" & "Postcode" being requested :confused:

When I look at it, it requests "Address (Street, City, State, Zip)" - no VPN being used…

Ditto, and I have just taken a screenshot, little point posting it on here as others have already confirmed.

So, a case of complete incompetence; or it actually is some right-wing American funded exercise.

Not that it matters really, the whole thing will be dead in six months.

It’s a CRM tool for non-profits, Advocacy Organisations, Campaigns, and Brands - lots of organisations use it, so it’s probably a configuration error by a Restore Britain operative or whoever they’ve paid/got to setup the site…

Rejoining the EU won't restore Britain. We'd be an even greater laughing stock than we are now.

Unless ... if there is a viable plan or evidence to conclusively show that our financial services would grow the economy by some percentage points, then let them laugh at us.

All this crap about Europe buying things we make has no evidential foundation today. For a start, what do we make that they can't buy now and would buy if we rejoined?

All we need is a government that can boost our economy. The longer the current bunch of idiots stay in power, the more difficult eventual recovery will become. Recovery will be painful because we have to reduce government expenditure at a time when demand is high. None of the political parties have a credible plan for that. I mean, shit creek just about covers the mess we're in and rejoining the EU, with the £25 billion or so per year that we'd have to chuck them so that France can continue its farming practices and for Ireland to continue calling the shots, will only delivber more pain.

I'm not dogmatic. There are always possible scenarios.
