I remember it being "normal" that a senior Conservative MP accused a Prime Minister of being a threat to the country
Because of their faith & and because of them caring for the common good https://twitter.com/i/status/1318214865899687938

So today we go to this https://twitter.com/ClaireHanna/status/1318227667485970434
I am going to focus on the "common good"
With a side focus on the sectarian mention from Claire
You see Michael Gove once accused Theresa May of being a threat to post-brexit Britain

You see Michael Gove once accused Theresa May of being a threat to post-brexit Britain
"Michael Gove has declared Theresa May to be âBritainâs first Catholic Prime Ministerâ and warned that this means she could be a risk to post-Brexit Britain."
"However former Leave campaign leader Michael Gove, who is well-read in theology, thinks there could be a problem with Catholicismâs focus on the âcommon goodâ and the âdignity of work and workersâ ahead of the pursuit of profit and individual prosperity."
"It is the latter, the âProtestant work ethicâ, which led to the country reaching the lofty heights of the British Empire, according to Mr Gove, pursuing âa global, maritime, buccaneering, individualistic, liberal destinyâ."
"Failing to follow the individualist path post Brexit would be a mistake, he says."
That must be one very specific and limited path https://twitter.com/ProfBrianCox/status/1318091354979901440

A hindu
A muslim

âThe Church of England is indispensable to a new politics of the common good beyond the liberalism of both left and right that underpins the global âmarket-stateâ. https://togetherforthecommongood.co.uk/leading-thinkers/an-anglican-understanding-of-the-common-good
The quote from the politician was Michael Gove and it was in relation to Theresa May being âBritain's first catholic prime ministerâ
