I cannot remember a time when a broadcaster – one of this country’s finest – spoke for so many millions of people disgusted by politicians and journalists who ‘took the knee’ for George Floyd while trying to stifle debate about the murder of a British teenager. Thank you, @ColinBrazierTV 👏

Découvrez le premier épisode de TRADITIO – Pour l'amour de l'Église, une série documentaire consacrée à la vie et à l'apostolat de ses prêtres à travers le monde.

Intitulé Une œuvre de foi, ce premier épisode est consacré au sacerdoce catholique, à l'histoire de la FSSPX et à la formation sacerdotale dans ses séminaires internationaux. Il propose de découvrir la vocation du prêtre, son rôle dans l'Église et le chemin qui conduit de jeunes hommes à consacrer leur vie au service de Dieu et des âmes.

Réalisé sur une période de deux ans par deux jeunes étudiants de Suisse et d'Allemagne en collaboration avec la Maison générale de la FSSPX, ce documentaire ouvre une série en trois volets retraçant l'apostolat de la Fraternité à travers le monde.

Sous-titres disponibles en plusieurs langues.

Corpus Christi Procession in Leigh on Sea

[LB236 @thelb236]

I think this weekend has definitively proved that, in the U.S. at least, any talk of "ecumenism" between the Catholic Church and modern American-style non-Catholic Christianity is dead in the water. Outside a dying number of members of traditional mainline Protestant denominations, it's clear that a large number, if not the majority, of self-proclaimed American Christians have a completely incompatible set of beliefs with fundamentals of historic Catholic/Protestant doctrine. When you have these people openly stating they reject all the historic creeds as man-made inventions and deny such fundamental dogmas as that of the Trinity as 4th century paganism, there is no "dialogue" that can bridge such a gap.

A veteran police officer says Scotland Yard has spent over a decade embedding Critical Race Theory into its policies and training, with predictably disastrous results. https://t.co/LNtKNjoAaW

SUPERB! Trevor Phillip's BEAUTIFULLY exposes David Lammy and Labour's sickening hypocrisy.

He shows him the receipts of them ALL saying it's ok to feel "fury" and "anger" over George Floyd, while they criticise Farage for saying the same about Henry Nowak.

Satisfying to watch.

On this day in 1535, Sir Thomas More was executed in England. He is today a saint.

The 1966 movie about his life, A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS, is one of my favorites—it's two hours of a man declining to dissolve into the first-person plural, and his final speech in the courtroom when he defiantly using the personal "I" to distinguish his own conscience from others is one of the best 5-10 minutes of any film ever, in my opinion. I recommend giving it a watch.

🚨WOW. KILLER DIGWA WAS NOT EVEN SEARCHED PROPERLY BY POLICE

HE STILL HAD A KNIFE ON HIM WHEN THEY TOOK HIM TO THE POLICE STATION

They didn't even bother to disarm him

This is how biased the Policing is

Sunday within the Octave of Corpus Christi.

Strength and protection may thy Passion be;
O blessed Jesu, hear and answer me;
Deep in thy wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me;
So shall I never, never part from thee.

This is deeply troubling. I hope my union - @fbunational - will explain to fire service bosses that firefighters must be free to express their political views without fear of sanction by their employer. @manchesterfire has seriously overstepped the mark here.

Many suspected Lucy Connolly was a political prisoner.
Newly released documents contain shocking proof that Lord Hermer rushed Lucy’s “emergency” case through. Judges were told the required prison sentence.
Two-tier injustice 🚨

"What was the first thought that flashed through the Sacred Heart of Jesus? Naught else than an act of absolute submission to the holy will of God: "Lo, I come to do Thy will, O my God." Here is the foundation of all holiness, perfect conformity to the Divine will" - Fr. Clarke

🚨BREAKING: Sir Malcolm Walker, founder of Iceland supermarket, has come out to say "two-tier policing exists," revealing police arrived instantly to one of his stores after a fake accusation of racism, but didn't attend when staff were seriously hurt by shoplifters

Shocking.

[Claire Fox @Fox_Claire]

Why this monologue by @ColinBrazierTV is so invaluable is that it digs deep into understanding many years of policy mistakes that led up to horrendous circumstances of Henry Nowak's tragic murder. Rather than just reacting, we need to think deeply. This does. A must listen

Very sad. There are many causes - such as high energy prices and Labour’s tax on jobs but there is something even bigger. In Tesco you can buy Chinese made plates which look unnerving like Denby - knock-offs effectively - at a fraction of the price.

We continue to delude ourselves that ‘free trade’ is fair trade. It isn’t and the long-term costs to our society of this wanton de-industrialisation is devastating.
