Rupert Lowe’s hard right Restore Party believes it is heading for a strong performance in Makerfield – but a piece of happy family news may put off some of his extremist supporters.
Last weekend, Lowe’s son Angus married one Yasmin Mezran. She is the daughter of Karim Mezran, an eminent Libyan scholar and senior fellow at the Rafik Hariri Center for the Middle East, who might find his daughter’s new father-in-law something of a conversational handful.

Lowe might want to discuss Mass Deportations: Legitimacy, Legality and Logistics, a policy paper that can be found on Restore’s own website. It features a foreword from him and warns readers of the “ongoing invasion” of
Britain by immigrants, and of the “social, cultural, and demographic costs” posed by immigration.
He may also want to talk about the Atlantic Council, which funds the Rafik Hariri Center and has been the target of right wing conspiracy theories since it dared to criticise Donald Trump.
