I'm reminded of a story told by Sir Ken Robinson:
Primary School nativity, the three kings approach the manger.
Kid 1: "I bring gold."
Kid 2: "I bring myrrh."
Kid 3: "Frank sent this."

A young student set out to protect an endangered local bird in the northeast Indian state of Assam. Two decades later, a 20,000-strong army of women conservationists have helped shift perceptions about the bird and grow back its numbers.

I’m certainly not a royalist, but as a man Charles has rare spiritual depth - here quoting TS Eliot’s “Four Quartets” (the greatest mystical poem in the English language) as he testifies to life as a pilgrimage, interfaith, towards building *community* for Peace on Earth.

Reform UK have repeatedly said that Kent is their "flagship" council and "the shop window" for how they intend to run things.

When they are exposed as planning to slash social care for old people, in order to hire their cronies as advisors at £150k a pop, I think people should believe them. ~AA
