I don’t think that God will save the Queen on this one

From the land that gave us the King James 1611 Authorized Version Holy Bible, now comes legalized gay marriage, and with it support for transgender, transsexual and pedophilic behavior of all stripes and degrees. Will the stoic, humorless and relentlessly conservative Queen Elizabeth really place her stamp of approval on it? Sure looks that way.

Seems like the sun has finally set on whats left of the once-glorious English Empire.

From Telegraph UK: The Queen is expected to be asked to give her approval to the Bill – one of the most radical pieces of social legislation of her reign – by the end of this week.

It opens the way for the first legally recognised same-sex weddings to take place in England and Wales by next summer and brings the centuries-old understanding of marriage as being solely between a man and a woman to an end.

Peers gave their assent to the third reading of the Government’s same-sex marriage bill without a formal vote after a short debate in the Lords, also backing plans for a review of pension arrangements for gay couples.

Unless MPs object to the bill at the eleventh hour during a short Commons debate set to take place on Tuesday, it is expected to receive royal assent within days. Baroness Stowell, the Government spokesman who steered the bill through the Lords, told a chamber packed with peers wearing pink carnations, that it was an “historic” achievement.

But opponents accused the Government of using a parliamentary “bulldozer” to speed the change through

The passage of the Bill brings an end to one of the most acrimonious debates of recent years which has divided the Conservative party and, at times, pitted Church against State. Speaking earlier, Nick Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister, claimed that despite huge controversy, most people would soon be asking: “What was all the fuss about?”.

But the Coalition for Marriage, the group which orchestrated opposition to the Bill, is now set to transform itself from a single-issue campaign into what could be one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the country.

The C4M has built up a database of around 700,000 supporters through its petition against the redefinition of marriage. Its leaders now believe they have enough support to influence the outcome of the 2015 election.

They have compiled a list of 39 of the most marginal seats they plan to target and in which enough people signed the C4M petition to suggest they could swing the election result.

They plan to challenge candidates of all parties to back a list of commitments to introduce new legal protections for workers such as teachers and registrars who hold to a traditional line on marriage.

They will also be campaigning to open up civil partnerships to allow family carers and unmarried siblings to benefit from the same inheritance tax exemptions as married couples.

Ben Summerskill, chief executive of Stonewall, said: “It’s impossible to express how much joy this historic step will bring to tens of thousands of gay people and their families and friends.

“The Bill’s progress through Parliament shows that, at last, the majority of politicians in both Houses understand the public’s support for equality – though it’s also reminded us that gay people still have powerful opponents.”

But Colin Hart, campaign director of the C4M said: “Mr Cameron needs to remember that the Coalition for Marriage has nearly 700,000 supporters, nearly six times the number of members of the Conservative Party.

“They are just ordinary men and women, not part of the ruling elite. They are passionate, motivated and determined to fight on against a law that renders terms like husband and wife meaningless and threatens one of the foundations of the institution of marriage: fidelity and faithfulness.

“These concepts may not matter to the leaders of the three main political parties, who are drawn from a very narrow liberal political class, but they do matter to people up and down the country who believe that marriage is special, unique and the bedrock of stable families.”

In what was, at times, an emotional debate, Lord Alli, the Labour peer, said it had been “truly humbling” to play a leading role in driving the bill through the Lords.

Speaking of his 15 years as a peer, he thanked the House of Lords, adding: “As a gay man over those 15 years you have changed my life.

“You have given me dignity where there was sometimes fear. You have given me hope where there was often darkness and you have given me equality where there was sometimes prejudice. “This is a special place and I am proud to have figured in it.”

Lord Lester of Herne Hill, the Liberal Democrat QC, said it would have been “quite inconceivable” for the Lords to have approved such legislation 20 years ago.

“It would have been fairly impossible 15 years ago,” he added.

“What has changed for the better has been the modernisation through appointments to this House.”

The Bishop of Norwich, the Rt Rev Graham James, said that despite the Church’s opposition to gay marriage legal recognition for gay relationships had made society “healthier”.

He said it was “no secret” that the majority of Christian churches and other world faiths “don’t believe same-sex marriage accords with their understanding of marriage itself”.

But he added: “Many of us do welcome the social and legal recognition of same-sex partnerships and believe our society is a better and healthier one for such recognition.”

Lord Cormack, the former Tory MP, who opposed the bill, said it would be “churlish” not to accept that the supporters had won.

He said: “I want to congratulate all those who have campaigned for this measure upon their success.

“But in doing that I would just ask them to bear in mind that although this may be a day of unqualified rejoicing for them, there are many in our country who by no stretch of the imagination could be called either homophobic or bigoted who are unhappy about this Bill.

They are unhappy about this Bill because it does strange the structure of society by changing the definition of marriage.

“I hope that all those who enter into marriage under its new definition will indeed live happily ever after.

“But the sincerity of that wish in no sense prevents my saying to them I understand that you feel euphoric today but please have a thought for those who have different views.

“Please have a thought to the many, not just thousands but millions of people in this country for whom marriage will always be equated with what remains the Christian definition of marriage and I hope that in recognising that they will always remember the great Churchillian motto: magnanimity in victory.”

Mr Clegg told the website PinkNews.co.uk: “Of course … it has come about in a blaze of controversy [and] I think that was probably always going to be inevitable.

“[But] my own sense is once the bill is actually on the Statue Book and once you start seeing same-sex marriages up and down the country – as I hope we see as quickly as possible – then I think actually people will look back on it and think ‘what was all the fuss about’, very quickly it will seem entirely normal.” source – Telegraph UK

Emmanuel Macron Releases Photo Of Himself Boxing To Signal That He Is ‘Ready For Battle’ Pitting Europe Against Russia In Solidarity With Ukraine

Intimate portraits of Emmanuel Macron boxing have been described as the ultimate show of ‘virility’ as he appears ‘ready for battle’ against Russia

French president Emmanuel Macron, who as you recall, is also the Co-Prince of Andorra, has just sent a message to Vladimir Putin about the Russia Ukraine War. Macron has signaled to Putin and indeed to all Europe, that he is ready to lead them into battle to defend Ukraine. He did this by releasing photos of himself aggressively punching a boxing heavy bag, taken by the official French presidential photographer, in a move some are saying shows Macron is ready for war.

But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.” Daniel 11:38 (KJB)

These boxing photos of Emmanuel Macron by themselves amount to not much more than him indulging in his well-documented narcissistic tendencies. But taken in complete context with the very aggressive pro-war statements he has been making over the past month, now you have something. Not only is Macron on record as saying that ‘European troops should be prepared to fight against Russia in solidarity with Ukraine’, he went on to say that if Europe and the West would not fight for Russia, then they were ‘cowards’. These boxing photos of Macron are funny, funny in the same way that photos of ‘the funny little man with the mustache’ in Germany were funny, right up to the moment that the laughter stopped. Just remember that the last two World Wars started in Europe, spread to Russia, eventually pulling in the United States. WWI killed 20 million with another 20 million wounded, plastic surgery was invented as doctors struggled to deal with the horrific wounds they’d never seen before. WWII killed 55 million, 6 million of which were Jews. Is Macron about to plunge us into WWIII? It’s starting to seem like it.

Macron boxing pictures show he is ‘ready for battle’ against Russia

FROM THE TELEGRAPH UK: Soazig de la Moissonnière, the official presidential photographer, released two black and white images of a sweaty French president hitting a punch bag in a gym on Instagram. They showed him with bulging biceps as he struck the bag with gritted teeth and veins protruding.

Nice-Matin, a regional French daily newspaper, said the images conveyed a message of “ultimate virility” that brought to mind those of a bare-chested Vladimir Putin practising judo or riding a horse.

CNews said Mr Macron appeared “ready for battle, his gaze fixed on the punching bag as if determined to beat his opponents”.

“With his features drawn, his muscles bulging and his teeth clenched, the president looks like a real warrior. A situation that echoes the tense news of recent days,” it said.

That was a nod to Mr. Macron’s apparent shift from dove to hawk regarding his stance to the war in Ukraine, urging NATO not to rule out deploying troops on the ground.

“Perhaps at some point – I don’t want it and I won’t take the initiative – we will have to have ground operations…to counter the Russian forces,” he told Le Parisien over the weekend. READ MORE

As Emmanuel Macron Says EU Troops May Fight Against Russia For Ukraine, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen Says ‘Prepare For War’

French president Emmanuel Macron says European troops should be prepared to fight against Russia in solidarity with Ukraine

When will the war between Russia and Ukraine come to an end? Not anytime soon. 4 days ago marked the 2-year anniversary of the day that Putin sent Russian troops to move against Ukraine, the largest attack on any European nation since the end of WWII. October 7th was the largest attack against the Jews since WWII, anyone else seeing where this all might be heading? If you guessed all this is presaging WWIII, congratulations.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJB)

And of course, we have our buddy Emmanuel Macron in the thick of it all, as usual, this time raising support for the idea of European troops on the ground alongside Ukraine to fight against Russia. Unthinkable, you say? Not by a long shot, it’s not only probable, it’s likely. Ask Solomon, he knows.

Ursula von der Leyen warns EU states ‘should be prepared for risks of war’ and need to ‘urgently’ rebuild their armed forces – after Emmanuel Macron refused to rule out sending troops to Ukraine

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Ursula von der Leyen has warned that EU states ‘should be prepared for the risks of war’ and need to ‘urgently’ rebuild their armed forces after Macron refused to rule out sending troops to Ukraine.

The European Commission President said the threat of war for the EU ‘may not be imminent, but it is not impossible. The risks of war should not be overblown, but they should be prepared for and that starts with the urgent need to rebuild, replenish, modernize member states’ armed forces,’ she said.

Her comments come after French president Emmanuel Macron warned that while there was ‘no consensus’ on the sending of Western troops to Ukraine, ‘nothing should be excluded’ following a meeting of two dozen European leaders in Paris.

This caused a worrying reaction by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, who said if NATO members sent their troops to fight in Ukraine, ‘we would need to talk not about the probability, but about the inevitability (of a direct conflict)’.

Getting involved in the war in Ukraine with boots on the ground would break a major taboo the West has so far been reluctant to challenge – until now, NATO members have only supplied weapons to the Ukrainian army.

While French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal reaffirmed Macron’s comments saying: ‘You can’t rule anything out in a war,’ Downing Street said there were no plans for ‘large-scale’ troop deployment to Ukraine.

A NATO official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, also emphasised ‘there are no plans for NATO combat troops on the ground in Ukraine’ despite the ‘unprecedented military support’ from the alliance. READ MORE

French President Emmanuel Macron announced Monday new steps to boost Ukraine in its fight against the Russian invasion, saying not even the sending of Western ground troops was ruled out to achieve Europe’s goal of defeating Moscow.

HIS KINGDOM COME? Prince William Makes Startling Announcement About Gaza War Leading Royal Watchers To Suspect He’s Preparing To Be King

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Israel has responded to Prince William’s statement over the Gaza conflict, saying the country also wants to see an end to the fighting. Is he preparing to be king?

King Charles III was shockingly diagnosed with cancer a few weeks ago, with the Palace being typically tight-lipped about his prognosis, and not revealing many details. But if the recent announcements of Prince William are an indicator, a transition is being talked about if not already actively in the planning stage.

“Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.” Psalm 20:9 (KJB)

The announcement published by Prince William calls for an end to the war in Gaza, a release of the hostages and increased aid. It was a very royal, and kingly, statement to make for the prince who seems destined to higher office. Nothing that happens in politics, in any nation, is by accident or coincidence, and it sure looks like England is preparing themselves for a new king.

Israel responds to Prince William’s shock statement over Gaza conflict – as experts claim well-choreographed intervention shows he plans to be a hands-on King

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The Prince of Wales, 41, ramped up his family’s response to the Israel-Hamas war after he and wife Kate had earlier put out a joint statement of ‘distress’. The heir to the throne expressed how his family was ‘deeply concerned’ about its ‘human cost’ in an impassioned statement just hours after Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer called for an ‘immediate humanitarian ceasefire’.

It comes as royal experts say that his well-choreographed call for an end to the Gaza conflict showed he plans to be a hands-on King – while MPs have questioned whether King Charles knew about his son’s statement before it was released. The comment comes just the day before MPs will debate and vote on an SNP measure calling for an unqualified ‘immediate ceasefire’ to end the bloodshed, even if Israeli hostages are not returned.

Labour has added an amendment as it also calls for an ‘immediate humanitarian ceasefire’, adding a string of caveats to the demand.

A spokesperson for the Israeli Defence Forces said: ‘Israelis of course want to see an end to the fighting as soon as possible and that will be possible once the 134 hostages are released and once the Hamas terror army threatening to repeat the October 7 atrocities is dismantled.

‘We appreciate the Prince of Wales’ call for Hamas to free the hostages. We also recall with gratitude his statement from October 11 condemning Hamas’ terror attacks and reaffirming Israel’s right of self defence against them.’

Conservative MPs were wary of publicly criticising Prince William but some questioned the royal’s ‘highly political’ message, calling his intervention ‘unwise’. But royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams said today’s intervention was evidence that William was following elements of his father Charles’ ‘outspoken’ approach to issues of the day.

He told MailOnline: ‘The language William used in this statement was very stark.

‘William has not been outspoken in the same way as Charles and tends to behave more like the Queen by being very circumspect.

‘But he can be outspoken in very specific circumstances when he knows his words will carry weight.

‘So while their style is very different, there something in his father in the way he made this statement.

‘Over time we will judge how his style develops.’

Mr Fitzwilliams added that William was ‘following in his father’s footsteps’ by showing his interest interfaith relations. The Prince’s statement insisted ‘too many have been killed’ since Hamas’s terrorist attack on Israel on 7 October last year. READ MORE
