Often at political hustings I have been asked: "What does the Christian Party stand for?" I summarise it in three ways. We stand for the main points that other parties stand for, without their unchristian polices. Then I summarise the other Parties quickly. Finally, I say: "So if you mix the blue, red, yellow and …

Changing the UK Constitution
The United Kingdom Constitution, such as it exists, is under review by a Labour Party think tank under the chairmanship of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. As one of the architects of New Labour, Brown's Commission is recommending A New Britain. This New Britain will have a new Constitution that will be guarded by …
Christian usefulness
The usefulness of Christians is paramount. It is not enough to listen to sermons and to worship God, but God expects us to be useful. "Faith without works is dead." James 2:20,26 I suggest that prayer without works is dead also Ex 14:15, Act 9:6-11. Jesus' Sermon on the Mount – Matthew, Chapter 5 Immediately …
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 …

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 …
Dealing with the energy crisis
Now that energy costs are leading to hyper-inflation, it is time to contribute to the solution to the energy crisis. First, there is the immediate problem and then there are long-term issues. What is the immediate problem? The important matter is that everyone is able to heat their homes and feed their family, especially through …
Black on white
After red on red or blue on blue, we now have black on white. Black on white is intensifying in the USA. The language battle and the debate on racism is becoming so bad in the USA that the rich are buying second passports to keep ahead of the expected civil unrest by leaving the …
COP26 and all that
The world has focused its attention this week on the UN Climate Change Conference UK 2021. The 26th conference COP26 is being held in the UK for the first time – in Glasgow, Scotland, my native city, and so I suppose that I should make some comment on what is frightening so many people. Panic …
Religion on display
Religious symbols have been on display in public for many years, whereas secularists are trying to remove them. However, religious speech is not so common in UK public affairs unless a muslim refers to Muhammad. So-called Christian comment is almost always wide of the biblical and Christian mark. How often do you hear Jesus Christ …
