On Monday the 22nd of September, 2025, I joined Advance UK.  I did this because I TRULY believe Ben Habib and his newly formed political party are our only hope of saving this country from the evil, fascist and oppressive control it is currently under.  If you value any kind of freedom of speech, are, as in my case, PROUD TO BE ENGLISH and you want to put the GREAT back in Great Britain and be able to show your pride in flying whatever flag you like without being called a racist, or this phobic or that phobic, then click here via my recruiter page (at the bottom) to join TODAY!

I myself am not religious, but there is no doubt this country is a Christian country built on Christian/Family values, and it should, under no circumstances, be allowed to be changed from that way, FOR ANYONE!

Ben Habib, Leader Of Advance UK.

A Voice For Courage And Conviction

Ben Habib is the Leader of Advance UK. A formidable businessman, seasoned politician, and steadfast advocate for Britain’s independence, prosperity, and national pride. He stands at the forefront of a movement to reclaim sovereignty and restore confidence in our democracy.

Born in Karachi to a Pakistani father and British mother, Ben moved to the UK at 13. He went on to become Head of Rugby School, before studying Natural Sciences at Cambridge University, where he also earned a Boxing Blue.

His early career was in finance in the City, before moving into private property development and investment in 1994. He went on to found First Property Group plc, an FCA-regulated and London Stock Exchange-listed fund manager, where he continues to serve as Chief Executive.

Ben entered politics in 2019, joining the Brexit Party in response to Theresa May’s failure to deliver Brexit. He was elected a Member of the European Parliament and later became Deputy Leader of Reform UK. Known for his principled opposition to the Northern Ireland Protocol, he has consistently fought to defend Britain’s sovereignty and independence.

He joined Reform UK in March 2023, becoming Deputy Leader later that year and helping take the party from 6% to 16% in the polls. He later resigned over disagreements on governance and political principles.

In June 2025, he founded Advance UK, which has grown at a remarkable pace, gaining over 30,000 members in just two months and becoming the seventh-largest party in the UK. Its growth continues.

As leader, Ben is determined to recruit the finest minds and most capable people in the country to deliver a proud, sovereign, and prosperous United Kingdom once again.

“I love my country, I love you, and I will not falter. I will deliver for you.”

Mission 

Help Us Mend Broken Britain

Help Us Mend Broken Britain.

We will build a proud, independent and prosperous United Kingdom.

We stand for nation, freedom, democracy and equality under the law.

Nation

Our Nation is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, in all its parts and with all its people.

The Party asserts every part of the Acts of Union which created the Nation. The Party stands against any arrangement which is not compliant with those Acts.

The Party promotes and celebrates the Nation’s Christian constitution, roots, traditions, culture, and values.

The sovereignty of the Nation stands as a bulwark against the undemocratic influence of supra-national institutions and international law.

Freedom Of Speech

A cornerstone of democracy is the freedom of speech.

All people should be free to think, speak and act according to their conscience and beliefs if they do not incite violence.

Children should be protected from ideological and political indoctrination.

There should be minimal Government intervention in people’s lives.

Democracy

The Government should serve the British people and be accountable to them.

There can be no dilution of the Government’s ability to discharge this obligation, and the people’s ability to hold them to account, by membership of international bodies, the entering into of international treaties, international law and domestic quangos.

There should be minimal Government intervention in people’s lives.

Equality Under The U.K. Law

All people living in the UK should be equal before and subject only to UK law.

All people should be able to live free from the threat of terror or violent crime and without prejudice.

There should be no discrimination based on ethnicity, sex or sexual orientation.

The British legal system must be the only legal system in the Nation and its application must be impartial and free of political influence or control.

Security of life and property are fundamental in creating a peaceful and prosperous society.

About Sandwell

Sandwell is a metropolitan borough of the West Midlands county in England.  The borough is named after the Sandwell Priory and spans a densely populated part of the West Midlands conurbation.  According to Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, the borough comprises the six amalgamated towns of Oldbury, Rowley Regis, Smethwick, Tipton, Wednesbury, and West Bromwich, although these places consist of numerous smaller settlements and localities.  Sandwell’s Strategic Town Centre is designated as West Bromwich, the largest town in the borough, while Sandwell Council House (the headquarters of the local authority) is situated in Oldbury.  In 2019 Sandwell was ranked 12th most deprived of England’s 317 boroughs.

Bordering Sandwell is the City of Birmingham to the east, the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley to the south and west, the Metropolitan Borough of Walsall to the north, and the City of Wolverhampton to the north-west.  Spanning the borough are the parliamentary constituencies of West Bromwich West, West Bromwich East, Warley, and part of Halesowen and Rowley Regis, which crosses into the Dudley borough.

At the 2011 census, the borough had a population of 309,000 and an area of 86 square kilometres (33 sq mi).

History

The Metropolitan Borough of Sandwell was formed on 1 April 1974 as an amalgamation of the county boroughs of Warley (ceremonially within Worcestershire) and West Bromwich (ceremonially within Staffordshire), under the Local Government Act 1972.  Warley had been formed in 1966 by a merger of the county borough of Smethwick with the municipal boroughs of Rowley Regis and Oldbury; at the same time, West Bromwich had absorbed the boroughs of Tipton and Wednesbury.

For its first 12 years of existence, Sandwell had a two-tier system of local government; Sandwell Council shared power with the West Midlands County Council.  In 1986 the county council was abolished, and Sandwell effectively became a unitary authority.  The borough is divided into 24 wards and is represented by 72 ward councillors on the borough council.

The borough was named after Sandwell Priory, the ruins of which are located in Sandwell Valley.  The local council has considered changing its name in the past over confusion outside the West Midlands as to the whereabouts of the borough, and in June 2002 a survey of borough residents was carried out.  Sixty-five percent of those surveyed favoured retaining the name Sandwell.
