Calling all Catholics. You have a moral duty to vote for pro-life candidates at the 2024 General Election! No excuses!

 We all have a moral duty to vote in General Elections. Even if you don’t like ANY of the candidates, you can spoil your vote or write why you won’t vote, and the election officer has to read out any messages to the prospective candidates. So a spoiled vote is not wasted as such. If the country experiences a lot of spoiled votes, the next government would need to note this. So it’s better to spoil your vote, than to not vote at all! Please vote!

Catholics have a moral duty, to find out, where the candidates in their constituency stand on pro life issues. If there is only 1 pro life candidate but you don’t like the party they represent, you should still vote for them. 

There is only one pro-life party in the UK at present. When I say pro life I mean from conception to natural death. Yes. Pro life also stands for anti euthanasia. All Heritage Party candidates are vetted with regard to pro-life issues. Unfortunately there are only 41 candidates, as there was too little time to sign up more candidates. The party continues to grow. 

I am standing for the Heritage Party in Sussex Weald. I got involved in the pro-life cause many decades ago. It shocks me that the unborn still have no rights. I am alarmed at the aggressive euthanasia lobbies too. Every life has value.

The Heritage Party is the party of common sense and the full comprehensive manifesto is on the website

heritage party.org

The Conservative Party stopped being conservative decades ago, and they are disingenuous for keeping the same name. If they were honest, they would have done the right thing and changed their name to a more appropriate name, such as ‘liberal progressive’ or something like that.

The whole electoral system is rigged to support the 2 horse race of Labour and Conservative. Proportional Representation would be fairer. 

If the polls are correct, and if there really is a Trotsky takeover (well we all know it’s a baton handover from one trot to the other trot), then I bet the so called Conservative Party will be desperate for PR. You bet they will be!

I admire George Galloway. His party is truly for the working person. He’s also very pro life. The reason I could not stand for his party was that his manifesto says it’s a requirement to be a socialist, and I’m not. 

Don’t dismiss Independent Candidates. Some are probably pro-life.

Latin Mass in Effingham on 30th June 2024. Confessions @ 11.15. Mass @ noon.

 Fr Peter Morgan is saying Mass at the Drift Golf Club in Effingham on 30th June. Confessions are at 11.15am.

The Heritage Party - I am a prospective candidate.

 Many people are complaining about the ghastly Conservative Party, but the Labour party isn’t very different from the Conservative party. There used to be a big difference many decades ago, but alas, they both have the same policies more or less. Their policies over the last decades have attacked the traditional family - in subtle but deadly ways. The Liberal Democrat party is as anti family as the other 2.

I remember when the Conservative  party used to support families, through the tax system, and there was a married man’s allowance. They then  abolished it. The married man’s allowance recognized the fact that brining up children is expensive, and this allowance was very helpful to families.

Then the Conservative government further eroded families by making Child Benefit only applicable to those earning under £50,000. And it is only for 2 children (shades of China’s anti child policy? - too right!).

Yet the absurdity of this is that - if the 2 parents are earning £49,999 each, they qualify for Child Benefit, and yet a parent earning £50,000 while the other parent (usually the mother) looks after the children - they get nothing! This wicked Conservative government hates families and hates children and hates mothers who actually want to look after their own children. The Conservative government has succeeded in implementing Communist measures by making as many children under 5 go into day care all day long. Studies have shown that the bond between a mother and her child is very strong, and much harm can ensue if children are left in daycare all day long, with an array of different staff whom they can’t bond with. 

As a traditional Catholic, I have not been able to vote for any of the main political parties, for a very long time. Invariably the Conservative MP in my constituent is a supporter of abortion, and therefore I cannot vote for him. The other main parties tend to be anti life too.

What’s the point of complaining if I’m not prepared to do something about it!

I found out about the Heritage Party on Uk Column News, and it piqued my interest. I read their manifesto and I agree with everything on it. It’s the only pro life party, from conception to natural death.

The party was founded in 2020 by David Kurten, a former London Assembly member.

Please read their manifesto. It really is the party of common sense. The policies on tax, education, immigration, farming etc are all spelt out on the website. 

I have joined the party and I have also been accepted as a prospective candidate for the General Election.

I was also elected as a parish counsellor for Heathfield and Waldron Parish Council, East Sussex. It is allegedly the largest parish council in England, with 21 counsellors.

Climate Change Movie

I urge you to watch this recently made film, showing how “Climate Change” is NOT based on science, but politics instead.

Exercise, which is intellectually stimulating aswell! And free!

 This is a very effective exercise routine, which I do when it’s very cold outside . It costs nothing.

Make sure you wear non slip shoes.

Make sure there are no hazards on the floor.

Put on some wrist weights and/or ankle weights - I use 1lb weights for my wrists.

Put your phone timer on for 30 minutes

Select something interesting or useful to watch on your phone. Or put classical music on.

Hold your phone horizontally, chest height, and firmly with both hands.

Turn the programme on and the timer, and start walking around your house, while moving the phone backwards and forwards.

If you have chosen something interesting to watch or listen to - the time will fly by.

You will be giving your hear and arms a good workout, and also your legs.

Modern wines are too alcoholic!

 When I was a teenager, popular alcoholic drinks were Sherry, Dubonet, Cinzano ,Gin and tonic etc. Wine was reserved for mealtimes, and the selection was fairly limited.

Wine has steadily become more popular and with its popularity - the alcoholic content has got stronger - which is not good.

A 12% alcoholic wine used to be the norm - which is 1.5 units per 125ml small glass.

I have seen wines with 13 - 15% alcoholic content. Not good!

I am challenging myself to find good 12% red wines. Let me know if you find any.

I recommend the drinkaware app, which is free, and it allows you to chart your weekly units of alcohol. 14 units is the most anyone should drink - per week.
