The former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is experiencing what multitudes of others have experienced in their life – small-time judges. Grilled by the Commons Privileges Committee of the UK House of Commons about his possible misleading of MPs in the UK Parliament, Johnson hinted that he may refuse to accept the verdict from its …

Christianity is judged unimportant in Scotland
A Scottish National Party Leadership debate was broadcast this evening in Inverness, the capital of the Scottish Highlands. It was hosted by The Inverness Courier who requested questions by email from its readers so that "all of the issues which are most important to our readers are put to the candidates". A week before the …

Trump is back on the Stump
Former US President Donald Trump has announced that he is back on the stump and he is running in the next US Presidential election. After asserting, with good reason, that his last Presidential election bid was stolen from him, Trump has watched the car-crash presidency of Joe Biden. He has now announced a new bid …
God-defying political boldness
The SNP Scottish Administration promoted, and the Scottish Parliament has now passed, the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill. The Scottish Christian Party has drawn attention to the sexualised agenda of Scottish politics since 2006. When I said in the mid-1990s that Scotland was only halfway through the Sexual Revolution, I did not know what the …
What does the Christian Party stand for?

James 2:20,26 Jesus' Sermon on the Mount – Matthew, Chapter 5 Immediately after the Beatitudes Mat 5:3-11, in which Jesus documents the characteristics of godly …
Hiding from accountability
Officials in public life are hiding from accountability. How do we improve public accountability? It did not begin with Kwasi Kwarteng's "not-so-mini" budget, which proved to be the biggest tax-cutting budget in a generation, disguised as a mini-budget, for which he did not provide the usual Report on the Economic and Fiscal Outlook from the …
Poor losers
One advantage of teaching sports to young people is so that they may learn that there are winners and losers. Young people need to out-live being "poor losers" and sport is a good playingfield to teach and learn this. It seems that many politicians have still to learn this. Too many behave like spoilt children …
Bankrupt – but why?
Slowly the public is learning that the UK is bankrupt. If you want to hear it explained, listen to Neil Oliver's introduction on GB News tonight about money, where it comes from and how it is created. The Scottish Christian Party told you about it over 10 years ago, but few people listened. Britain is …
