The 3rd Reading of the #AssistedDyingBill is on Friday yet it remains hugely flawed. The PMB process has been woefully inadequate. - Only 12 of 133 amendments tabled have had a vote - Just 14% of MPs have had the chance to speak on it Not good enough for such a profound change.

MPs have personal beliefs, but also solemn duties: that’s why they must reject the assisted dying bill this week theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

It was fantastic to gather with church leaders and politicians, including Marsha de Cordova, this morning at the National Parliamentary Prayer Breakfast. It’s so important to support and pray for Parliament, so please join me in prayer for all of those that work in public life.

Great start to today at the National Parliamentary Prayer Breakfast in Westminster Hall where I was delighted to invite along the Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church Scottish Episcopal Church for a conversation on God in the public square.

A real joy to represent Christians on the Left today at the gathering of Socialist Societies at UK Prime Minister. Socialist Societies represent key areas of wider society to the Labour Party and vice versa. If you’re in the Labour Party and not part of a SocSoc, join one now!

Thanks to Aid to the Church in Need UK for joining our monthly online prayer breakfast this morning to share about their work supporting and advocating for persecuted Christian communities across the world.
