Stand your ground
Inspiring.
Devil's Kitchen points to an article that shows how New Zealand's politicians ignored the mantas of the statist Left and the Statist Right, and made the country fit for human beings again.
Which is so unlike what our own political class is even thinking of, or has even allowed itself to think of for years, as Dumb Jon points out with regard to our own 'Conservative' elite.
Picture from here.

Sunday blasphemy hour
A hymn to and from our owners; our masters; our gods.
Immortal, invisible, State only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
To all life thou givest to both great and small;
In all life thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish but nought changeth thee.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
Thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
All laud we would render: O help us to see
'Tis only the splendour of light hideth thee.
And who said the Left are anti-religious?
