THE GOVERNMENT'S CRIMINAL NEGLECT OVER NHS STAFF AND OUR LIVES

The focus on testing, although vital, conceals a sinister even criminal policy. This guilty government, that downplayed the Covid-19 threat, squandered vital preparatory time, allowed Cheltenham, stopped testing and contact tracing, and acted with negligent complacency in the face of this devastating pandemic, is now endangering callously NHS staff. Alfa Saadu, bravely and compassionately responded to the government's request for retired medics to return to help. Without proper PPE, he contracted the virus and tragically died. Too many other NHS staff have suffered the same squandering of their lives. The government intends further testing to reduce the number of NHS staff self isolating, by clearing those uninfected to return to work. However, unprotected, they face the same risk of mortality. This approach cannot be tolerated. It is akin to sending our troops into combat without proper equipment, as happened in Afghanistan. It is the cynical abuse of courageous and dedicated ordinary people to give the impression of governmental action, when in fact chaotic incompetency threatens thousands with an early grave. Those in authority managed to evade responsibility for the betrayal of troops in Afghanistan. The nation must ensure that those who have exacerbated this present slaughter are held to account and face justice.

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART ONE


ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART TWO

I AM PROUD OF MY WRITING, FOR JESUS’S SAKE, THAT HAS HAD ME FOUND INNOCENT IN HEAVEN, BUT TWICE A CRIMINAL ON THE EARTH. THE FIRST IN 1990 WHEN I WROTE A BIBLICAL TEXT ON THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT IN PEACEFUL PROTEST ABOUT THE BOMBING OF YOUNG IRAQI RECRUITS DURING THE FIRST GULF WAR. THE SECOND, IN 2016 WHEN I WROTE ON MY BLOG, TO ALERT THE PUBLIC ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE, AND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN FORCING THE AUTHORITIES TO STOP HIM HAVING ACCESS TO CHILDREN. THERE WAS ALMOST A THIRD! IN 1997, WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR NAILING MY PROPOSALS FOR REFORM OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ON THE DOOR OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL. WORDS ARE POWERFUL MESSAGES THAT CHALLENGE  CORRUPTION, CONFRONT THE WICKED AND CREATE A BETTER WORLD. JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED  TO COMMUNICATE HIS WORDS,  IRRESPECTIVE OF THE COST.
"You brave, courageous and wonderful man. To stand up for the truth in the face of suppression and oppression is truly an act of a pure heart."
