Contraception
Restore Europe opposes artificial contraception and rejects a public culture that treats permanent avoidance of fertility as the normal foundation of sexual life, without criminalizing private adult possession.
Positions
This catalogue answers a narrow question: what does Restore Europe hold on this issue? It does not replace the manifesto. The manifesto sets out the worldview; this sets out searchable, topic-by-topic positions.
Where Catholic moral teaching is clear, Restore Europe generally adopts it as the moral baseline, and states civil-law implementation separately. One departure is recorded explicitly: on capital punishment Restore Europe takes the older traditional allowance for exceptional cases rather than the contemporary abolitionist position.
The catalogue distinguishes the constitutional order Restore Europe seeks from European law as it currently stands. Several positions — on nationality, on deprivation of citizenship, on speech, on the public standing of religion and on capital punishment — would require constitutional or treaty change before they could be enacted in particular European states. Where that is so, the entry says it.
Version 0.2 settles the questions version 0.1 had left open: the European institutional relationship, asylum, deportation, wages, taxation, pensions, housing, labour representation, digital identity and currency, biometric surveillance, genetic engineering, sentencing, the energy mix and every standing question of foreign policy. Where a v0.2 formulation revised an earlier entry, the newer text governs.
Every question in this catalogue carries a position. Entries marked Derived follow the direction of the manifesto without their implementation being fixed, and several name the legal or treaty change they would require. Positions are revised as the movement decides; the version and date above say which text you are reading.
8 of 89 positions match.
I
The place of religion in public life, and the moral questions law cannot avoid.
Restore Europe opposes artificial contraception and rejects a public culture that treats permanent avoidance of fertility as the normal foundation of sexual life, without criminalizing private adult possession.
III
Membership of a political community, and the European order between nations.
The normal route requires around fifteen years of lawful residence before an application may be made, with demanding assimilation requirements.
Restore Europe supports fundamental reform of the European Union into a limited framework for cooperation among sovereign European nations, with most political powers returned to the member states.
VI
What is transmitted to the next generation, and who decides it.
Homeschooling should be legal and protected, because parents are the primary educators of their children.
A plural education system including Catholic, private, classical, vocational and monastic schools, with public funding able to follow families.
Universities should retain genuine academic freedom while ceasing to operate as institutions of compulsory ideological propagation.
State schools should have a Christian civilizational orientation rather than a secularist one.
Schools may teach factual reproductive biology, but moral formation on sexuality belongs primarily to parents and chosen religious institutions.
