Harken to the conversations held among the Common people who complain of their lot. Though oft it has been the case that such conversations were heard in ancient times but now they are to be heard up and down the country in places of food and drink where family, friends and strangers still do meet. Conversations in homes, cafes and pubs talking about the cost of living from food, petrol to energy; price hikes in insurance from pets, cars to houses; difficulties in getting appointments or access to doctors, hospitals and dentists; difficulties in getting police or ambulances in times of emergency; violence on our streets between gangs, be they political, tribal, criminal, religious or racial; destruction of private property from shops, pubs to cafes; and complaints about local and National politicians who seem deaf and blind to the common people’s complaints, protests and anger.

Here in these conversations we find that all the whats are being asked, noticed and voiced but little work is going into reflection. Reflecting on these whats to ask the whys - such whys as these, namely, why is all this happening now? Why here in England is all this happening to us who have worked all our lives, paid our taxes, paid our dues and kept the laws of the land, even when many politicians have not, local or national?

Instead, what the Commoner is given to his or her questions is a narrative that derives from an alliance of the State, MSM, Big Corporations and mindless little companies who ape them, national institutions from the police, NHS, the Military to the Universities, all telling the Common people that it is they that are the problem. They are the problem because their minds are not woke but closed. The- powers-that-be consider the minds of the Common people closed and now they are even being called far right because they still hold to a belief in the Natural Law, they hold to a sense of pride about the History of their nation and they hold to a firm belief in Common Sense on matters truly human.

So, today we find that the Common People are being besieged by a woke and hive mind that has infected and corrupted the Elites, be those elites found in the Houses of Parliament, the Judiciary, the Government, the Police, the Military, Corporate Businesses and National institutions; it is an infection and thereby a corruption of isms that seeks totalitarian control over all the members of common Society. It is this ideological mindset that causes much of our strife and division. Many now after the Election are coming to see that there are no real differences between Tory and Labour as both talk the same talk for it is clear now that there are no parties only a uniparty. A uniparty that requires the Commoners be told that life, their life, needs to get a bit harder to save the planet, to save the country, to save the banks and now to save the government who has spent £17 billion on proxy wars around the globe for which the general public nor Parliament have given their consent.

So it is that the commoners must now shoulder Big Government’s Burden by being deprived of food, property, land, fuel, energy and finally cash, pensions and savings! So for those who voted for a change, the times ahead are going to be disappointing, hard and gruelling if not cruel for we should never have put our trust in princes nor in governments so easily bought by the superwealthy as evidenced by their allegiance to the WEFbefore country. The super-wealthy like to both keep their wealth and also like to keep the Common people at bay, preferably by keeping them poor, dumb, blind and sick, indeed in the words of Scrooge, to even enact policies to ‘deplete the surplus population’ of this common rabble! Never has this been so clear as in the times in which we now find ourselves: watch the brilliant researcher, Witney Webb, and her findings on the global public private partnership that is initiating a global neo-feudalism - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8myLQpu59g.

But, whether it is the Elites or the Common people, both are suffering the toll of that loss of a religious and moral vision concerning Man’s place in this world, his history and the struggle with evil for which only the God of Jesus Christ fully comprehends and gives the answer. As long as both Elites and the Common people seek merely political, social or economic solutions without Christ then they will always underestimate the power of evil in the world, in human hearts and especially in their own hearts. Thus, the solutions offered by the Left or by the Right have now manifestedly failed and are making things much much worse today. It is why Catholics today must rise up and find their voice and find their valour in proposing to these dark times the Social Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

We need to start by praying, fasting and making reparations for peace, justice and right reason both in the civil and international order as there has been for sometime (and it is now growing a pace ) the rise of a spirit of belligerence between nations and within nations. A belligerence that has been accelerated in hearts growing cold to God, Morality and Charity as the true Religion of these islands has been eclipsed by secular and materialist forces which has even given us a counterfeit church that dances to the tune of the many coloured pied piper who is the zeitgeist or the spirit of the age!

Next we need to start building the Social Kingship of Christ by establishing the life of Tradition both Sacred and Human in our families, our fellowships and in our local communities: think global but act local; think traditional and act like a steward! Tradition is the vehicle of history that continues the memory in space and time of Christ the King from whom we were given two principles: ‘Do this in memorial of me’ and ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go make disciples of all nations, baptising them In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit...’ Let us pray and sing out for a new Catholic vision: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihJAJA4ibEs

Maybe we could also play the following tracks in our streets where tread the weary feet of the Common people:
