ALL meetings cancelled until further notice but it is acknowledged that this is unlikely to be before the autumn as we usually have a break for summer anyway.

Keep safe and keep your distance - follow the science

The Danish Medical Association again says it’s “ethically unacceptable” to circumcise boys who aren’t old enough to consent when there’s no medical need. Children’s right to bodily integrity should be protected – regardless of their parents’ religion. https://t.co/gJAF8PZp1u

Any school which teaches creationism in lieu of scientific theories is failing to prepare children for life in 21st century Britain and has breached the independent school standards. We’re quoted here: https://t.co/X44HW3ifiF

Wrongly associating extremist beliefs with mental illness stigmatises those who struggle with mental health problems, write Dr Annie Hickox and @RuthAnnHarpur to @guardian. https://t.co/diCPYHSlNY

At least the @churchofengland and Catholic Church didn't use legal attacks to prevent abuse investigation, and have accepted findings. @JehovahWithUs seem not to care. What have they got to hide? @Humanists_UK

Just as the pandemic has upended the buying and selling of goods like toilet paper, airplane seats and Vermont real estate, it has roiled the mostly illegal markets that thrive on the dark web, reports @KartikayM for @business. https://t.co/rHoJvWv0Mk

One of the most important parts of my job is emphasising to couples that #YourWeddingYourWay really is a thing and the only limits are your imagination and budget!

One of the most enraging things highlighted by today’s #IICSA report on the Catholic Church and child abuse is the Vatican’s failure to cooperate with the inquiry. The Holy See's ambassador claimed diplomatic immunity to avoid being compelled to provide evidence. 1/3
