Rishi Sunak told the Conservative Party Conference: “A man is a man and a woman is a woman. That’s just common sense”.

Read MoreThe Weapons of our Warfare
It seems our world has been under increasing spiritual attack in the last months. It’s hard to remember when it all started, but the attack on reality itself is gathering no small amount of steam. We are told by our betters that love means hate, that a man can be anything he wants to be,…
