Are Reform UK Copying Restore Britain?

After Rupert Lowe launched Restore Britain as a national political party, Reform UK and their surrogates in the media spent two weeks calling Restore and their supporters neo-Nazis, far right, incels, and ethnonationalists.

Now, Zia Yusuf, the man who called the police on Rupert Lowe to kick him out of Reform, is cosplaying as Home Secretary and copying Restore's talking points on immigration and Christian heritage.

Reform are promising mass deportations — the same policy that Nigel Farage called "very grave, dark and dangerous", and expelled Rupert from the party for proposing.

Laila Cunningham insists Britain is a secular state, while Zia Yusuf says Christianity is "core to the history and the DNA of the country”, and without it "the country is not a country, it’s just an economic zone." 

Meanwhile, Nigel Farage still says being English is about "how you feel," and that any other position is "a really worrying, dangerous form of ethno-nationalism".

I'm glad Reform are shifting rightwards. But why do Reform attack Restore as "far right" one week, then copy all their policies the next? Why would we elect Muslims to protect our Christian culture? How can we trust Farage to deliver when he's been dragged kicking and screaming to this position, and is still denouncing his own voters?
