I know many people don't like Owen Jones, but I found this article deeply disturbing.

I am a child of immigrants, and my children are mixed race. So things like this are really starting to worry me.

I completely understand why people are angry at the current rate and quality of immigration (my own family are also disgruntled with it). But Restore want to deport even those who have citizenship.

And I am genuinely concerned that things are going to get worse than Farage if the government don't get a grip on this.

Owen Jones is a stopped clock but he's right about this- it's patently fucking obvious that racism is becoming mainstream.

I wouldn't take this to mean Farage is in any way moderate- he was proposing removing 'indefinite leave to remain' last year. That'd include people like my uncle who came here form Spain 40 years ago and has worked a gruelling job as a social worker since.

They're slightly different flavours of fascist, that's all. But YANBU that Restore Britain is a massive concern. It'll be interesting how many people can't bring themselves to acknowledge that because of their dislike of OJ. I wish he'd realise that him speaking up is pretty counterproductive here!

Actually it’s a Restore policy to deport legal immigrants in several circumstances, if they end up claiming any benefits for example.

Well that could explain why Restore are way behind Reform on the You gov poll.

Farage parted ways with Lowe because of Lowe's stance on deportation. If immigrants are here legally, there isn't an issue. I would take what Jones, the rape denier says, with a huge sprinkling of salt.

Farage has promised to abolish ILR. ILR holders are legal immigrants.

Also, rioters dont care who is legal or not when burning houses and targeting Ugandan nurses in Ireland.
