In his Good Friday message to the nation yesterday, Gordon Brown said, ‘The Christian churches are the conscience of our country, always ready to bear witness to the truth and to remind us of our responsibilities to what the Bible calls ‘the least of these’.
Hmm. I’m an old cynic and looked around for some sensible words to counter the chocolate-box sentiments oozing from the Downing Street copywriters.
I found them from dear old Ann Widdecombe who is always good for a quote. ‘If Gordon Brown is the Good Samaritan, perhaps he could explain why he robbed the pension funds and left so many people by the wayside?’
A very good question!
