Christianity and the Millennium revisited

by The Editor

By Gregory Lauder-Frost - 'We were once told that the basis of our laws, our culture, indeed our entire civilisation, was Christianity.

by The Editor

By Dr Frank Ellis - A recent programme of BBC Radio 4’s Archive on 4 was dedicated to the life and works of the Marxist historian, Eric Hobsbawm.

Going to Berlin though, and experiencing a highly efficient, on time and cheap method of travel, this expectation, was immediately broken, once I was back in England. I truly realised how terribly overpriced and inefficient the privatised rail network is.
