Britain’s Patriotic New Voice: AdvanceUK’s Policy Launch in London

On February 7, 2026, AdvanceUK held its first conference in Westminster, London, near the Palace of Westminster. Over 1,000 supporters attended as the party introduced policies on culture and immigration. The event signals a growing interest in patriotic renewal, similar to grassroots movements in the U.S. focused on national identity.

AdvanceUK is led by Ben Habib, a 60-year-old property developer and former Member of the European Parliament for the Brexit Party, which later became Reform UK. Habib was born in Pakistan to a Pakistani father and English mother, moved to the UK as a child, and built a career in real estate.

He became known for supporting Brexit and served as co-deputy leader of Reform UK with Nigel Farage. In 2025, Habib left Reform UK to promote more democratic involvement for party members. He founded AdvanceUK in December 2025 as a “people’s party” focused on restoring British sovereignty from organizations such as the World Economic Forum and the United Nations. The party aims for principled governance and draws on Britain’s Judeo-Christian heritage to encourage unity and prosperity.

At the event, Habib presented policies aimed at restoring Britain’s core values. AdvanceUK wants to defend Judeo-Christian roots by requiring oaths in Parliament, making English the main public language, and celebrating Christian holidays. The party proposes banning Sharia courts, public calls to prayer, face coverings like the burqa, and first-cousin marriages. AdvanceUK favors assimilation over multiculturalism and promises to end inheritance tax, reduce rural regulations, and end dual nationality.

Habib presented policies focused on restoring what the party sees as Britain’s core values. On culture, AdvanceUK wants to defend the country’s Judeo-Christian roots by requiring oaths in Parliament on the Bible or with secular affirmations. They also want to stop churches from being converted to other religious sites and make sure English is the main language in public institutions.

Broader plans focus on family values. These include ending inheritance tax to protect wealth and farms, supporting rural life by reducing environmental rules, and ending dual nationality to strengthen national loyalty.

AdvanceUK’s immigration plan, “Operation Restoring Justice,” would halt asylum applications and cancel recent approvals. Work visas would be limited to trusted countries, and foreign nationals would lose access to welfare. Immediate deportations would apply for overstayers and criminals, with new enforcement teams and Royal Navy patrols.

It would also limit work visas to a “Green List” of trusted countries, such as the U.S., Canada, and EU nations, while blocking entry from a “Red List” of other countries. Foreign nationals would lose access to welfare and housing, with incentives for voluntary departure.

The plan calls for immediate deportations without appeals for overstayers and criminals. It would create a new team for enforcement raids and involve the Royal Navy in the Channel. Visa rules would ban political activity and proselytizing to support cultural unity.

Speakers at the conference addressed moral decline, family values, and free speech. Notably, Kathy Gyngell, editor of The Conservative Woman, spoke about the importance of marriage and traditional values for national renewal. Professor Norman Fenton criticized universities for spreading cultural indoctrination and called for a return to merit and truth. Former Royal Marine Richard Thomson encouraged free speech and empowerment.

Habib described the party’s policies as a “righteous mandate” with legislation ready to go. The atmosphere was unified and determined, and social media was active afterward, with attendees praising the proposals as bold steps toward renewal.

AdvanceUK’s approach echoes U.S. debates on borders, heritage, and self-determination. The party supports Judeo-Christian values, seeks to counter Islamic influence, and aims to attract voters dissatisfied with mainstream parties.

Limited media coverage has been criticized as bias, but AdvanceUK’s focus on patriotism and cultural preservation presents a new right-wing voice as the UK navigates post-Brexit changes.

With elections coming up, AdvanceUK hopes to attract voters who feel let down by other parties and could change the right-wing vote. Some say the limited media coverage shows bias, but the party’s focus on democracy, patriotism, and cultural preservation presents a new and determined voice in British politics.

As the UK faces continued post-Brexit changes, AdvanceUK’s launch offers a plan for those who want a united and proud nation.
