The Cardinal’s statements were designed to increase the take in the offering collection boxes. That is no longer his job.
“The British are our closest allies.”
That would be Australia.
“The current German inbreds show more loyalty to the Commonwealth than to Britain.”
This reduces their dependence on the EU; a trading bloc of former colonies/territories.
“The so-called sovereign Queen regnant has sat idly by as her empire collapsed, and transfered sovereignty to the the EUSSR. That is an act of supreme treachery, an act of treason by the monarch.”
The same queen watched the wars in Malaya, Rhodesia, Palestine, etc. sap the blood of her people; they couldn’t hold onto them, and avoided a war along the lines of France’s Indochina or Algeria wars or Portugal’s Angola war.
No, that’s not the reason.....Short story: the Catholic Church actively conspired against Henry to attempt to overthrow England, in favor of Spain. So you might understand that when a political entity (which the Church was at the time) is your sworn enemy that you may not welcome them into the monarchy of your Country.
The monarchy is as outdated as the exclusion, but really it’s not as bad as you make it out to be. It actually has roots in reason. You probably knew that already.
