Tom Wright on Labour’s Arrogance
January 30th, 2007 by Stephen
Regarding the government’s new morality:
This completely fails to take into account the views and beliefs of all those involved. The idea that new Labour — which has got every second thing wrong and is back-tracking on extended drinking hours, is in a mess over this cash-for-peerages business, cannot keep all its prisons under control — the idea that new Labour can come up with a new morality which it forces on the Catholic Church after 2,000 years; I am sorry, this is amazing arrogance on the part of the Government.
Dr Tom Wright, Bishop of Durham.
I couldn’t agree more with his comments. We are fast approaching a time when the police are policing “thought crime”, as evidenced by their “investigations” of people under the religious hatred act.
Yes, indeed.
Thanks for the comment.
