[The Spectator @spectator]

The Green party is considering a new policy to ban circumcision, The Spectator can reveal. The party's Health Policy Working Group (HPWG) has launched a consultation seeking views on whether parents should only be allowed to consent 'to an irreversible surgical procedure on a child if that procedure is medically necessary'.

The HPWG is also requesting opinions on whether 'non-therapeutic male circumcision should only be performed on children who are old enough to make an informed choice'.

The policy proposal, launched ahead of the Greens' Autumn Conference, is likely to provoke significant division within Zack Polanski's party. Circumcision is an integral part of Judaism, with Jewish boys traditionally undergoing a 'brit milah' on the eighth day after birth. Russell Langer, Director of Public Affairs at the Jewish Leadership Council, said: 'Circumcision is a vital part of Jewish life and an essential link to our religion and heritage.

This is also a practice shared with many of the Muslim faith. Any suggestion of a ban on circumcision will have a significant impact on our communities and the future of the UK as a tolerant society which respects freedom of religion and belief.'

Neither the Roman church nor the C of E believes this

Hi @BBCNews - in your coverage of the King’s visit to the Pope, please would you stop describing the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church as “two different faiths”? Both are Christian!

After a 7 year break, it feels like the right time to see @jacobcollier live again, now for for the 5th time. I've needed interluding time to recover. 🌟🎶🎵

@AnglicanFutures @AngelaTilby People like myself, and those I've referenced, are now in local churches (as I know you have in your church too!) serving local churches with gifts homed and developed in many places including at camp. (End)

[benet @BenetBP]

@AnglicanFutures @AngelaTilby ... have come to faith through camp, some from non-Xtian backgrounds, and are now in the "leaders room" themselves, where for lots of them the very first time they were helped to write a Bible study or recieve informal training in giving a Bible talk was at or through a TT camp.

"...They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. 'Peace, peace,' they say, when there is no peace. Are they not ashamed of their detestable conduct? No, they have no shame at all, they do not even know how to blush ...
