Do not comply. Unvaccinated, unmasked, and unlocked-down. One way: Jesus. Pronouns: кто, кого.

Everywhere I go all I see is foreigners.

Every shop I go into a foreigner behind the till.

Every bus now a foreigner driving it.

Replacement migration isn't a theory, open your eyes before it's too late.

We’ll speculate about whatever the hell we like. If the police don’t like it they can go and whistle up their pipe. They are not on our side.

@holysmoke I assumed the churches you list all use the Roman Missal, but were they in fact following C of E Holy Communion and interpolating, using the wording in the Missal, the prayer for the Pope and the local ordinary/ flying bishop?

@peggy_stu @Matt_Pinner I'm only eating the one I've never kept as a pet. Haggis for me.

March 2020 to July 2021: Churches close due to the deadly Wuhan virus. Meanwhile, SSPX chapels remain open and even fight against state restrictions; other TLM communities show a similar solicitude for the faithful. Attendance at *all* TLM locations grows significantly.

July 16, 2021: ‘Traditionis Custodes’ published: the TLM must be shut down due to the deadly trad virus. Bishops begin closing one location after another. Meanwhile, SSPX chapels carry on as if nothing has happened, and TLM communities continue to grow.

July 2, 2026: Vatican and dioceses say: You must leave the SSPX and come back to... our TLM locations! (errr, the ones that are left...). Or, failing that, just come on in to the Novus Ordo (don’t worry, it'll be worth it!).

In short: “Stay home from church, it’s not safe! Come back, now it’s safe! Oh no, you can’t go there, it’s not safe! Come back, we have a safe place for you!”

Can’t you understand why some Catholics, in addition to desiring tradition, might simply wish to live without this kind of insane whiplash? Without being kicked around like somebody’s political football?

A lot of yappers out there haven’t even tried to wrap their minds around what it’s like, on the ground, to be devoted to the TLM—or even simply to be a serious Catholic—in a church environment that, since 2020/21, has been hostile to it in so many ways. And my view is, if they won’t bother to try to understand us, we have no duty to pay attention to them.

People may scoff at this, I don’t care. I attended a church today whilst on holiday in France and said a little prayer for the soul of Ann Widdecombe. She was a devout Christian. May she rest in peace.

@revsrgamble Is this the place where S.S. rebuilt the vicarage at his own expense?

@bo66ie29 The traffic in and around Chichester is horrendous these days, you have to keep yr wits about you. I first visited for the day -by train- in 1990, stayed there for a week in 2009, then for a month, nearby, in 2019.

@hector_drummond @MillennialWoes They had to find a Maecenas to bankroll them, as public-sector sinecures were far fewer in number.

@roddreher My coffee table currently has on it a box set of Jeannie, a copy of the Septuagint, and my grandfather's chess set.

@A1an_M Given that the majority of the brain consists of fat, this (speaking from first hand experience) is a snack for smart people.

@PHandwright @Independent @Ofcom Those sorts of people cannot stand being mocked, they hate it the most. Mocking Ofcom may be a criminal offence here in UK, its possible, everything else here seems to be either banned or compulsory.

@calvinrobinson Crude-looking but workable - my previous church's "altar book" was an A4 display book. Opened flat, and text can be printed big enough to see. The propers, which normally lived in a box in the sanctuary, were swapped over for each celebration.

@GordonDComstock @MontgomeryToms @churchofengland it looks like St James's Piccadilly, where they say, rather as the BBC do, "the amount of complaints we get from all sides tells us we must be doing something right."

[Brodie Mitchell @BrodieMitchell1]

Results Day just dropped. Royal Holloway suspended me for 9 weeks over ONE free speech comment. Banned from campus.
They refused any support. Refused catch-up. Refused extra tuition. No help. Nothing.

While they hoped I’d fail. My grades went UP 17%!! Every module 2:1 or above.
Finished 3 marks from a First.
They tried to bury me for speaking out.
I used their bullshit as fuel.

I have 1 year left. This degree is getting finished on my own terms.
Universities don’t own you.
They don’t get to silence you.

They sure as hell don’t get to break you.

Keep going no matter what they throw at you.

It's the mental gymnastics that you must have to go through when you write "in no way does it represent the vast majority of people" when you know, in fact, that it does.

Hi @andyburnham

If you try to ban VPNs I will use any and all methods to get around it. Legal or illegal.

I will then advise others on how to do the same.

You can try and hide the truth but you will fail because we are legion.

@EC2man Wondering who is taken in by this sort of silly debating point.
