Finally deleted my BBC News (UK) app. Struggling to find a good app to replace it. Nobody suggest Al Jazeera English or anything paid for by right wing billionaires. Is there anything?!

I’m not trying to be snarky, I genuinely find this interesting and worth considering. What if Solomon, Samson, and David are NOT in the Bible because they were super righteous and smart, but rather, because they were seriously screwed up? What if the whole purpose of the Old

The Palestinian population has grown 400% since 1948, yet they call it a ‘genocide’. Christians are on the verge of extinction in the Middle East, and yet no one calls it a genocide.

Clergy spouses need a volunteer contract outlining their role & time offered. Or sign an agreement of non-participation in the church/parish. Would protect spouses, clergy and churches. They have perceived power and influence and can abuse it, or be abused.

Synthetic protein and food will always have more real, biophysical costs than ecologically-raised food. A worldwide network of industrial-scale cell culture factors will never be thermodynamically competitive with agroecology. A thread:

Excruciating listening to Israeli Ambassador Tzipi Hotovely being interviewed on BBC Radio 4 Today, being asked if Israel is ‘doing enough’ to ‘minimise harm’. BBC still struggles to understand Iran is the aggressor & Israel is defending the whole Western world in standing up to Iran.

As adults, we rarely learn fresh skills or dare ourselves to change direction. We urge our children to be bold risk-takers and encourage them to try things like learning musical instruments. But us grown-ups? We hide behind the way we’ve always done things. We become so boring!

I regret the fact that Uber Eats, PepsiCo, and Nestlé are considered worthy members of a "Food and Drink Sector Council" that supports 🇬🇧national resilience. Their junk food is seriously degrading our national resilience, the cause of an obesity epidemic which is driving up

8 years ago I woke up in hospital with suspected meningitis as Trump was voted in. Felt like rock bottom. But that was a migraine and those four years weren’t that bad. Deep breath. God is still good.

This is worth an explanation in itself. In 2016 I was a default leftie/liberal. Brexit and Trump, neither of which I supported, shocked me. I realised that the map of the world I had in my head was inaccurate so I went out to try to understand what had really happened. That's

I’m grateful and sad that Follow @ArchbishopSarah has resigned. I’m also angry that other Bishops who have not acted on disclosures have not apologised or resigned. I look forward to further action for change in culture in the house of Bishops.
