LADY THATCHER R.I.P.

 

 

It is a short fortnight ago that Lady Thatcher's funeral dominated the headlines both here and abroad. Although this is now a memory, it nevertheless crystallised a choice for the future of England.

 

There has been much said as to the bias of the television coverage. The view of the English Rights Campaign is that the BBC has attracted more that its fair share of adverse comment – although as the national broadcaster funded with taxpayers' money then it should be supportive of the national interest than is regrettably the case. The main hostility to Lady Thatcher was voiced in the news bulletins and Sky News was as hostile as any. One broadcaster even had someone from Argentina voicing his opinion as to the harm Lady Thatcher had allegedly done to that country [would we have had Germans complaining of the harm done to Germany by WWII at Winston Churchill's funeral]. The lies about the sinking of the Belgrano were peddled yet again. The BBC can take credit for its excellent live coverage of the funeral, as well as the documentary by Andrew Marr which was objective and informative. The Church of England too can take credit for an excellent funeral service and the Bishop of London made a fitting address.

 

Newsnight, as ever, resorted to cultural Marxism and advanced the line that the service was out of date and even imperialistic!

 

Yet what the funeral demonstrated was the stark alternatives facing England and the UK as a whole. The funeral represented traditional British virtues of patriotism and Christianity. Lady Thatcher was unashamedly proud of our history and our culture. It was this pride and these values that Lady Thatcher presented to the nation at her funeral. This was why it attracted the venomous hostility of the alternative view – one of political correctness with its hatred of the West and of everything that Lady Thatcher stood for.

 

This is the choice we now face. We can rally to campaign to rebuild our nation and defend our culture and values; or else we can sit back and watch the politically correct systematically destroy our country.
