British MPs would do well to listen to Pope Leo and the example set for them by St Thomas More. Especially after this week in parliament.
Gotta love Pope Leo telling the politicians to conform to Natural Law and to follow the example of St. Thomas More
🧵Britain isn’t a Christian nation anymore. Why? Because Britons stopped being Christians. Been thinking a lot about this excellent speech this week. It’s not immigration or Islam that emptied our Churches. It’s indifference. Let’s talk about it. 👇⛪️
I gave a speech today in an empty chamber. It’s about the need for a Christian restoration.
The appalling scenes in Gaza are unrelenting. The UK will pull every lever we have to get food and lifesaving support to Palestinians, and we will evacuate children who need urgent medical assistance. This humanitarian catastrophe must end.
🚨 NEW: The UK, France and Germany have released a joint statement stating the "time has come to end the war in Gaza"

The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
The Prime Minister must act with immediate airdrops of much-needed aid into Gaza and get other countries to do the same. It is simply inhumane that Gaza faces starvation due to Israel’s aid blockade. Words alone won’t save lives.

Assisted suicides have reached a record high in Switzerland, with a total of 1,729 residents of Switzerland ending their lives by this means in 2023 (an 825% increase since 2003), 59.92% of whom are women. 😨 Read the full article here: righttolife.org.uk/c0uj
The siege on #Gaza is starving the population. Over 100 organisations are urging governments to open crossings, restore aid access, and agree to a ceasefire. Governments must act now to save lives. Statement here: bit.ly/40A7bnQ #CeasefireNow
Our powerful @Daily_Express front page for tomorrow. The brutal suffering in Gaza must end. The shocking image shows Muhammad Zakariya Ayyoub al-Matouq, one, who weighs the same as three-month old baby due to the humanitarian crisis following the continued blocking of basic aid…
UK announces new £60 million humanitarian aid package to support healthcare, food & water. This will include continued support to 2 field hospitals in Gaza run by @UKMed & £20 million in support for @UNRWA's essential services for Palestinian refugees.👇 gov.uk/government/new…
The UK is doing all it can to alleviate Palestinian suffering in Gaza. Today we've announced a new humanitarian aid package. This includes vital funding for @UKMed, who have already treated over 500,000 Gazans over the course of the conflict.
Why do journalists fabricate headlines like this? Why are they employed to lie to the public? This was not a woman who commited this crime.

A month on from the Commons vote on assisted suicide, it’s clear that quite a few MPs were confused about the bill or influenced by misinformation. Here are 10 examples:

Horrified by the violence in Southern Syria. A sustainable ceasefire is vital. I spoke to Syrian Foreign Minister @AsaadHshaibani yesterday as part of UK efforts to urge a peaceful resolution. We want to see the fighting ended, civilians protected and humanitarian access…
