Reflections on Great Britain's Vote to Exit the EU

Please welcome my friend and colleague Chriss Rainey to the Les Femmes team. This is her first contribution as a contributor and since she isn't comfortable posting yet, I'm doing it for her. I look forward to her thoughts and opinions on a wide range of issues that affect Catholics. 

Who will lead them?
by Chriss Rainey

I watched the news last night as the votes came in across Great Britain. By 11 PM I realized that in England most people were asleep and had gone to bed not knowing the outcome of this world changing referendum. Many who wanted to stay in the socialist EU woke up SHOCKED this morning. They had fooled themselves into believing they could demonize people and shame them into taking a position contrary to what they truly believe. Polls on election day indicated that the REMAIN contingent would win but, what the polls didn't take into account was the fact people were intent on following their heartfelt convictions even if they were "politically incorrect."

Brexit Wins: Britain's Declaration of Independence!

"Take away wickedness from the face of the king, 
and his throne shall be established with justice." Prov 25:5
The new world order globalists are wringing their hands today over Britain leaving the European Union. Maybe nothing will really change, but the vote means government is back in the hands of the people. Let's hope they deserve it.

The vote accords with Catholic teaching on subsidiarity. Should decisions about what happens in Britain be decided by a global elite in Brussels or by the people most impacted by decisions?
