      @@sasha_somethingLGBT is applauded today, with a whole month for it. LGBT people are treated with respect. Where is the respect for Christians? At one so-called pride march, someone shouted a wicked comment mocking Jesus’ crucifixion, yet no action was taken on him.However the street preacher was manhandled by police. There are only TWO genders -“In the image of God created He them ; MALE AND FEMALE CREATED HE THEM.” Genesis 1:27 KJV.

    Miriam, I am so glad that you did this interview, and I came across it today, because I have been trying to learn about politics and who are the Christians who will stand up for the Christians in this country?
    I am so grateful that you are involved in politics, and I agree with most of what you have said in this interview.
    I hope to hear more about you in the coming days.
    You were born for such a Time as this.
    Just like Queen Esther in the Bible.
    If you do not speak, then we do not get the freedom. We so desperately cry out to God for.
    Your voice matters, so do not be silent at this time.
    If God is for you, then who can be against you.

    Is she still being investigated by the parliamentary commission for standards and, if so, could it be for her apparent inability for distinguishing truth from untruth (or could it be "alternative facts". She is on record or lying to Parliament. She seems to have her fans in this institute but is it really a Christian thing to lie? I was brought up in a strict CofE school and they instilled in us a strict regard for the truth. Is that all old hat now?
