Those Clegg-Farage debates… | JP Thinks
https://jonmuses.wordpress.com/2014/04/09/those-clegg-farage-debates
Musings on Christianity, life and other stuff. Those Clegg-Farage debates…. It’s a depressingly frequent feature of modern debate that one or both sides deliberately, usually through self-deception, misunderstands and misrepresents the arguments and opinions of his opponent. Instead of engaging with and responding to what the other person actually said, he invents an imaginary opinion for his opponent, and attacks it. In the second debate, hosted by David Dimbleby for the BBC, Clegg argued against the id...

Musings on Christianity, life and other stuff. A random young Christian guy who likes philosophy, history, the English countryside and most types of music, tweets, blogs and hopes that some people are interested. Daniel Hannan and the emotional case for the Union. We should remember how rare it is for a union of different peoples, especially one which at the start was not entirely consensual, to be as successful as this one has been, as described by Daniel Hannan in this excellent blog post. The relation...

A Force for Good. The Lily of St. Leonards. Wednesday, September 17, 2014. So all the interviews are in. 24 of them that is. My goal was 25. So here goes nothing…. What does the British identity mean to me? As a born-and-bred Yank, what can I say that would make any impact? Is it not worth bringing to the fore at this moment? So what does Britain mean to me, to me in my heart? What else do I love, that I have dreamed about, in some romantic dream? But there is MORE than that. There is something here,...

Musings on Christianity, life and other stuff. Daniel Hannan and the emotional case for the Union. We should remember how rare it is for a union of different peoples, especially one which at the start was not entirely consensual, to be as successful as this one has been, as described by Daniel Hannan in this excellent blog post. Why should we be proud to be British? The relationship between Scotland and England is rather like that between Boswell and Johnson: under the teasing, there is affection based o...

Union Jack Chat: What Is Unionism?
http://unionjackchat.blogspot.com/p/what-is-unionism_22.html
A Force for Good. The Lily of St. Leonards. When I first became interested in the topic of Unionism back in 2011, I found it hard to pin down the exact dimensions of the movement. Were they all Protestants in bowler hats based in the troubled north of Ireland? Was there some central headquarters for them, or did they muster in underground tunnels? Did they have direct contact information, or did they communicate with each other using invisible ink? Pearl of Tyburn, Administrator of "Union Jack Chat".
