The further left mainstream politics moves, the easier it is to write off centre right opinion as extreme. Con/Reform/Whoever needs to develop a credible centre right presence quickly.

Lessons from history....two of the main reasons that Hitler rose to power were economic instability....Great Depression....and discontent with the existing politics....Weimar.

Any of this sound familiar?

There will always be mouth breathers who just want a scrap, but what happens when someone comes along who can harness and direct that aggression....see the SA in 1930s Germany for details.

It genuinely worries me that I...part of the Establishment most of my working life...can listen to Tommy Robinson and even begin to think he might have a point.

This is a reply from a wise old woman that I know very well who I forward The Scrolll to on a daily basis. She hates the word ‘religious’ but has extremely strong ‘faith’ -

Good article as always.

In 1987 (wish I had kept it). I read a prophecy on all what is going on within Europe and the UK today. The Church was told not to be complacent but to prepare and pray for this time in history.

I used to sit by an old lady in church in the early 2000’s …. ‘Mrs Lane’ 93 years young, she used to stand in church and speak against the EU to stop all the countries coming in … especially the eastern block and Turkey….she wrote many a letter to Tony Blair. Mrs Lane would admonish us to pray fervently for our nation and tell the government the errors of their ways. She saw then what would be happening today!!

Mrs Lane, a woman full of the wisdom of God. She was fascinating…… I was fortunate to be one who Mrs Lane spoke to all those years ago, when she went home to heaven, I picked up the mantle. You don’t need to be prophetic to see what is now with us and worse still ‘what is to come’ Jesus told us in Matthew 24 “do not be deceived” there will be wars, rumours of wars these things must come to pass. Nation will rise against nation (Southport) these things are just the beginning.

We are commanded not to fear but to pray.

I have written to the government at times ( not as often as Mrs Lane) I quote Martin Niemoller (1893-1984) who was a prominent Lutheran pastor in Germany.

I have never expected a reply but I will never give up….. I wrote to the IOC and Thomas Jolly about the grievous blasphemy of the last supper.

We live in a time when it is only God who we can count on. It behoves us to pray.
