We know they are lying,
they know they are lying,
they know we know they are lying,
we know they know we know they are lying,
but they are still lying.

Former Royal protection officer Richard Griffin reminisces about a picnic he went on with the Queen at Balmoral and an encounter they had with two American tourists who did not realise they were in the company of the monarch.#PlatinumJubilee: https://t.co/orTd7551d3 pic.twitter.com/snTOgEoGu1

Great movie. The common thread with these automatons is that they don’t believe in objective truth and reality. Everything is relative. “My Truth” v “Your Truth”. Mass psychosis for the purpose of legitimizing lies #whatisawoman https://t.co/QLXzljog0S

Love the Peter Hitchens comment re Christ being the Son of God…
Ah ha! So, you have discovered the best live track of all time!
Dire Straits Sultans of Swing from Alchemy has been my number 1 for decades. Nothing comes close for me.
Thanks for the range of material David, keep up the good work.
Many many good quotes, audios and insights, David .., and can’t respond to them all .., however one quote from the very first Director General of the BBC does stick…
The scenario was in a meeting with many of the Oxbridge educated producers on upcoming programming.., and when they got to the so-called ‘God slot’ as one of the sart alec producers suggested…
Lord Reith then said to him, and with all the others in mind…
‘My dear fellow.., The Church of Jesus Christ will be at the graveside of the BBC and every other vaccuous organisation in our bankrupt society..!’…
How prophetic then and how true now..?
Hello, can you please provide the source for this quote? Thanks.
Thanks David. I hadn’t come across Peter Hitchens before and I think he is a very courageous man, standing up for what is right and good. I’m glad you included that clip of him speaking. I agreed with what he said about Jesus Christ and His resurrection – everyone was silenced by that wonderful truth. I have since read Peter’s book ‘The Rage Against God’ and am currently reading another of his books, ‘The Abolition of Britain’ – both excellent reads. He has a thorough understanding of how and why today’s society and culture is the way it is now. How sad it is to realise just what we have lost sometimes, but at least there is hope when there are those among us like Peter Hitchens and yourself who are brave and not afraid to speak the truth to a lost world and lighten the darkness. Don’t give up – there are people who are listening and hearing.
