Reaping What You Sow


The Conservative Party Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, Chris Grayling (pictured right), today warned of a generation of young men who have little chance of gaining employment (STS?) with many turning to crime which he describes as a "Jeremy Kyle generation". He accurately identified one of the causes: "Family break-up often means that there is no father figure in childhood". After decades of the government undermining the family through various legislation this is the inevitable consequence. The family is God's building block of society. When it is undermined society crumbles. However I'm definately not saying "Vote Tory" because Grayling can merely see the symptom in society, not the cause nor the underlying problem, our nation's rejection of Christ the King.

Hmm...bit hypocritical that the "hug a hoody" (I could soon tell them what should be done with such delinquents)Conservatives should be pontificating about the family being undermined since their leader supports homosexual civil partnerships. Moreover, under David Cameron they are probably more Socialist than Labour. While there was talk of them scrapping inheritance tax (I will believe that when I see it), I would nearly prefer that Labour remained in power.
