January has always been a quiet month, a time of reflection after the Winter Solstice, awaiting the Burgeoning of Imbolc and spring,
A slowing down of the frantic Social Media sites after the Holidays, and a slow return to the 'business' side of things as we enter the next cycle and the 'new' Gregorian year.
This year however has been anything but quiet behind the scenes.
As a lot of 'our' work, and mine in particular is oft' times conducted in solitude, in what doubles as a work station here in Salisbury.
Seasonal Rites and Celebrations, Media appearances and Politic and Protest are all familiar venues and occurances, where I may be seen throughout the year but much is achieved with due diligence behind the scenes and this 'quiet' time has been no exception.
Through this medium and others, I try to keep folk informed and a cursory look at my Social media sites will show that I am in contact with H.M. Government and taking part in several public consultations. Some of you will be aware that differing Government Departments are looking into the 'Tunnel' options at Stonehenge and the proposed changes to the Human Rights Act.
This involves printing off hundreds of pages of documentation and going through them often line by line and checking where the inferences are in each and every sentence, Wading through pages and pages of 'legalise', taking notes, and writing out draft responses.
I recently put out an appeal out on social Media for financial assistance to allow the purchase of much needed 'Office supplies', and as always, and as I put it. 'The Magic kicked in' and we received what was necessary thanks to the generosity of a handful of people.
Funds, or rather the lack of them, is always a problem and is usually the only thing that restricts the amount we (and I in particular) can do.
Looking at the way this Government is teetering on from one crisis to another and at the similarities betwixt and between it and Her Majesties Loyal Opposition, I think there's a clue there in the word 'Opposition' as to what's missing.
I don't think it will be long before we are once again thrown into the murky mists of a General Election and I shall feel Honour bound, by part of my Arch Druids, Sacred and Imperial Oath;
'To Fight Corruption in High places, no matter what the cost'
And will once again put myself forward for Election as Salisbury's Member at such a time, and again funds and funding will determine how much can be achieved, and how many (if any) leaflets we may produce.
Therefore, any help with funds or funding is most welcome, but rest assured with or without sufficient funding it is my and 'our' intention to fight on, and to do so always in the ancient virtues of Truth of Honour and of Justice
