Five Hundred Thousand Pounds. Restore Britain’S First Large Cheque

“I am delighted to announce that British entrepreneur Simon Galbraith has chosen to support Restore Britain, starting with two separate donations totalling £500,000 to our party.”

The Guardian, the same day, names the vehicle: Cade Hill Investments. Two sums of £250,000 this year. Galbraith co-founded the Cambridge database firm Redgate Software. He has previously given to the Liberal Democrats. The paper calls it Restore Britain’s first major donation, and a sign the party may keep troubling Nigel Farage’s Reform UK.

UK Pol records the same split: two donations of £250,000 through the company. Restore Britain was registered as a political party in February 2026.

Galbraith’s own statement, as carried by BusinessCloud, is not shy. In late April, through Cadehill, £250,000. Another £250,000 in August. The money, he said, came from the sale of a British business he co-founded. He is a British taxpayer. “There is a centralised, bloated and incompetent state which is increasingly undemocratic.” That is his sentence, not mine.

The next morning Lowe posted a navy graphic: Restoring Our Identity. Restore Britain’s philosophy of national belonging. A white map. A PDF. I do not pretend the poster is a bank slip. The slip is the announcement of the first of September. The poster is the shop front the money will paint.

Half a million is not a state budget. It is enough to print a lot of maps.

Is this accurate — or do I have a detail wrong?
