AS THE EU Referendum was officially announced on Saturday rival Christian groups have entered the debate setting out their cases.
Co-Chair of Christians for Britain, Giles Fraser, Tweeted: The ”˜In campaign seems to be little more than we’d be a few quid better off. Tawdry. Sovereignty and democracy shouldn’t be for sale.”
The ecumenical ”˜Christians4Britain’ website, launched earlier this month, says it is a cross-party campaign representing British Christians who believe an EU exit would be better for Britain.
Giles Fraser backing a conservative cause?
Can someone tell me that this is not a spoof? Or perhaps a proleptic nod to April 1st?
Fraser is typical of that most conservative [small ‘c’] and endangered of English eccentrics – the public school rebel. Like young fogeys who they resemble, they are really yesterdays men fulminating from their baths and bath chairs, and leading others boldly into confusion and uncertainty. They know clearly what they are against, but are uncertain what they are for.
