Dear Editor,
I deeply appreciated Edward Vines’s ‘Why society is on the slide’ (October en) and felt that he ably tracked aspects of the disintegration of the West. His material on Marx was new and welcomed. His encouragement to open one’s eyes to see how this is massive spiritual warfare is also crucially important.
However, after reading it I could not help but recall 28 May, 1940, when the British war cabinet came close to negotiating talks with Hitler’s cronies. Churchill saved the day and kept Britain fighting in what appeared to be a hopelessly-lost war until Pearl Harbour changed the game.
