#ToPray✝️ It’s hard to convince people that a God they can’t see loves them when a church that they can see doesn’t seem to even like them.

Last week, the Trump administration told the New York Times that they will destroy $10 million of contraceptives, because they “no longer supply abortifacient birth control”. The catch? There is no such thing as “abortifacient birth control.” This is disinformation and must be called out.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday. As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

I am reeling from all the insults I have received on the Nextdoor app recently, after voicing my concerns about national flags being displayed outside a hotel in Crewe housing migrants. So much mindless anger and aggression everywhere! Now I know what politicians must feel like ... 🙄 #CofE

If the US is on its way to autocracy, in a condition scholars might call “unconsolidated authoritarianism”, that changes Britain’s entire strategic position, its place in the world, which for 80 years has been predicated on the notion of a west led by ... the US. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It was satisfying to have been part of this effort. Approximately 99,000 litres of water were distributed and 2,500 homes visited.

Last week, to alleviate water shortages caused by the burst water main in Broughton, members of North Wales 4x4 Response and North West 4x4 Response delivered bottled water across the affected area (Deeside/Flintshire coast) to care homes and to individuals on Welsh Water's priority register.

There’s a HUGE Elon Musk-shaped hole in the Government’s new plans to improve our elections; shady billionaires like Musk can still donate massive amounts of money with no cap, effectively buying our democracy.

Apparently a group of Conservative Evangelicals at #synod declined to attend the Sung Eucharist at York Minster on Sunday with the rest of the members and took themselves off to another church instead. What does this tell you? #CofE 😧

Interesting article. STEM publishing has moved on a lot since I left the library and information profession in 2012: www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Does anyone else read this morning's gospel (Good Samaritan) in terms of church safeguarding failures? Senior clergy being prevented by legal and procedural requirements from responding properly to survivors' disclosures of abuse, hence 'passing by on the other side'? #CofE #safeguarding

I find this interesting. I suspect that a survey approach was deemed unsuitable. However, it worth noting that an important aspect of the methodology of the July 2024 report was deeply flawed. 1/ #CofE www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/202...

I have just discovered that the 1983 Code of Canon Law of the Roman Catholic Church imposes latae sententiae excommunication (i.e., imposed ipso facto) on a person who attempts to confer a holy order on a woman, and the woman who attempts to receive it. So now we know ... 🙄 #WATCH #CofE

My partner is one of four people deputed by the General Synod to attend this week's Methodist Conference in Telford. The order paper for Day 1 includes no fewer than NINE hymns and worship songs, most of which she realises she does not know! #CofE #Methodists

I am deeply disappointed that the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill has passed its third reading. We must assist people to live not to die.

Allowing assisted dying while savagely cutting PIP is telling disabled people they're allowed to die with dignity but not to live with dignity

Has reading Diarmaid MacCulloch's History of Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years (2009) made anyone else feel seasick? Effect on me is pervasive both for aspects studied previously and those not. Interested to find out. #CofE
