Quote:Horrific news on the markets. Everything is already just so expensive for British families, and with oil prices soaring? It’s going to get worse. A lot worse. We should be honest about the consequences of the Iran war.
Petrol is going to get more expensive. A lot more expensive. What does that do? Drive up the cost of everything. Inflation. More and more inflation. The markets are in turmoil. Life is going to get yet more costly in our country. It’s reported that petrol may go through the all-time high of 191.5p per litre. Brutal. Absolutely brutal.
Who is going to suffer? British men and women.
Is this a surprise, after what’s happened in Iran? No, no it is not. What did they all think would happen?
Tony Blair, Farage and many others want Britain to dive headfirst into this war, but that is not the right decision and we should have the courage to say so.
That is what Restore Britain did on day one.
If Britain starts dropping bombs, how many of these Iranian illegal migrants that have already invaded our country are poised to act? To disrupt? To kill? There will be many more attempting the crossing. Terrorists? Spies? Soldiers? It’s just a fact. Plenty will already be in hotels across the country.
Endless foreign wars do not serve the British people. When Tony Blair is urging intervention in the Middle East, that should tell us exactly what we need to know.
That man is a danger and a disgrace.
But the immediate crisis is the soaring cost of living crisis that is about to get a lot worse thanks to the oil price and shipping disruption. And it is a crisis. So much is impacted. Major issues for farming, industry, everything.
Given our pathetic reliance on imports, Britain is spectacularly vulnerable.
Reeves must urgently slash fuel duty to protect British motorists, and everyone else.
Because British families are going to really suffer over the coming days and weeks. That’s just the reality now.
All British political parties need to start taking decisions that will solely benefit the British people.
That is exactly what Restore Britain is doing.
British people first, every single time.
I fear we are about to endure a very challenging and a very expensive period.
British men and women simply cannot afford it.
Reeves must act and cut fuel duty. This must now urgently happen.

Shame Trump abandoned his America first agenda , now we suffer again.
She needs to have a very serious word in Eddie's ear and tell him to start drilling in the North Sea and make us self efficient. We can do that in a matter of weeks.
Cutting the fuel duty is very short term and will reduce the government coffers..... and the books will still need balancing, and our debt needs to be paid. We default on that and we become a 3rd world overnight.
Regardless whether people support this war or not.... we are in it by proxy all the same, just like other countries.
Now is the time to start making ourselves self sufficient with oil and food supply...... and we have the means to do it.
This is one move I disagree with Rupert on as it's driven by fear not pragmatism. We have not dropped any bombs on Iran, and I very much doubt we will, I'll be very surprised if we do.
Add to it we are moving into warmer weather and demand wont be as high..... we have time on our side..... make use of it quickly and efficiently and secure our long term future.
