The Brexit saga rumbles on, with heated words from both sides, but it is worth recalling the words of

Sir Winston Churchill that resonate strongly down the years.

"But we have our own dream and our own task.  We are with Europe but not of it.  We are linked,

but not comprised.  We are interested and associated, but not absorbed."

I think his choice of the word "absorbed" has historical relevance for us today, with the EU's policy

of ascendancy over the member states, of which we are but one.  We are undeniably "absorbed".

And how prophetic of the great man to remark:

"There is a forgotten - nay, almost forbidden - word, which means more to me than any other.

That word is ENGLAND."

When was the last time, dear reader, that you saw it listed on any official document or heard

it mentioned, except in terms that border on alarmist or racist?  I wonder what WSC would

have to say about that?
