But I’ve been linked via a post from Stephen Pollard to Melanie Phillip’s blog.
She addresses one of the astonishing aspects of the recent letter from the Church to No.10, an implicit declaration of intent, by the Church to indoctrinate pro-Israeli christians to accept the drivel the Church currently seems intent upon serving regarding the supposedly villainous and fascistic nature of Israel’s right to sovereignty unfettered by genocidal terrorism.
As I said, Melanie Phillips is rarely someone I’d find myself agreeing with, but from her brilliant appearance on Newsnight to expose and tackle the editorial bankruptcy of the BBC to this post I’ve got to say I’d rather have her writing a column for the Times. She can have Simon Jenkins’ spot - sure she bashes Blair but then so does Simon and it would be nice to have a columnist who isn’t consistently wrong on every issue.
Later
John
