Closing school will kill heart of this Catholic community

-

I AM writing to offer my support to the petition to “Save St Alban’s School” from closure.

St Alban’s is at the heart of the Catholic community and is the only Catholic school serving Splott, Tremorfa and Pengam Green, and to close the school would kill the heart of this Catholic community.

I am not a wordsmith so I can only say what is in my heart.

Please, please don’t do this, the Lord wouldn’t. He told Abraham that for the sake of just 10 good people he would not destroy the city, (Genesis 18: 20-32) so surely the archdioces­e of Cardiff should be thinking the same way.

Please let sense prevail here and keep St Alban’s School, parish and church alive in faith.

What about the workers?

AS THOMAS Cook goes to the wall, will the executives paid millions in wages and bonuses sleep well tonight? Of course they will.

I feel sorry for the thousands of ordinary Thomas Cook employees who have lost their jobs.

Good luck to Boris in bid to save UK

JEAN Sylvan Evans’ letter to the Echo (September 23) was one of utter gloom, doom and unproven propaganda fear that finishes with the words “then we can get back to party politics”.

What a dismal outlook she paints of our future. Party politics, the multiple inadequate non-entities huffing and puffing, each with an agenda, none with the answers to get mankind out of the grip of the United Nations. Yes, the United Nations the octopus forcing the world towards one world government of which the European Union is just a stepping stone for them to get their own collectivi­st way.

The UK desperatel­y needs a twoparty state to end the current multiple party system that is encouraged by the unseen establishm­ents/corporatio­ns, to keep themselves in power. Failure to change the system leads to the inevitable mishmash of never-ending frustratio­n of the sovereign people.

We have on one side decent people striving to earn their bread, while on the other the deceitful establishm­ent/corporatio­ns are spiriting profits of billions away to foreign shores, as they scheme to increase the load upon the people’s backs.

She says we are facing “a government made disaster”. This is wrong, we are confronted by an enemy, an enemy intent on destroying the UK that has continuous­ly worked to change the EU, from what started out as a fine trading partnershi­p, into a thinly disguised, highly politicise­d, communist regime. Anyone who says communism is dead, knows nothing of history. A history of death and destructio­n. Millions kept in bondage behind an Iron Curtain of ideology. By 1989 they accepted their abject failure, but not defeat, as they removed the Iron Curtain and Berlin Wall. Why? Because they saw the EU was ripe for a takeover. A glaring opportunit­y too good to miss was taken with alacrity.

They now control not only the UN, but the EU, as well. Now what we see is the benches of our heavily complicit parliament, littered with their adherents, ready to welcome them with their sickening cacophony to remain.

However, as a lifelong Labour supporter I say good luck, Boris, you are the only saviour in sight; now that the European Star Chamber, masqueradi­ng as a supreme court, has shown its true colours. You will now be subjected to every ruse they can rustle up, or invent, against you. Should you succeed to get us out of this EU rat-trap, then the UK will be forever in your debt.
