What were my motives? What did I not like about the situation last year? I felt that the power to decide where our country was headed had been taken away from us and Europe was deciding instead, and those in Europe making the decisions were not voted for by us and so did not have a mandate to decide. I wanted our borders to be secured and for us to be able to decide how many people came into the country. I am not against immigration I just want it to be sensibly controlled. We are a small island and space to live is limited. Already the countryside is disappearing under more and more housing. I am well aware that our services and in particular our NHS is highly dependent on immigrants and these people should be welcomed with open arms. On another level the immigrants who do a large amount of the agricultural work are also invaluable. I am learning to teach English as a Foreign Language and hope to help immigrants settle in this country and feel they belong. I have seen huge changes in my country over the last 70 years, something which every generations sees. They are not necessarily bad changes but they could be managed better than they have been in recent years.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
