A day of returning as priest to the place I first explored vocation and taking our daughter to the restaurant where we had our first date and a bonus picture of baby eating a huge ice cream in the heat with @James_Harper1

So depressing to see Starmer & Sunak seeking to out-compete with each other to be as inhumane as possible to some of the most vulnerable people in the world. Note to Sunak: seeking asylum is NOT an illegal act #ITVDebate

[Ruth @ruth_edmonds]

Absolutely this.

The double standards in the treatment of Diane Abbott is abhorrent.

Racism and misogynoir against Black women in the workplace is rife across society; our political class is no exception.

Our utmost solidarity with @HackneyAbbott 🖤

Not normally on X, but this thread is v important - do read through and write to your MP if you can about it!

The Post Office's compensation scheme is designed to minimise payouts. One postmaster received £15.75.

Does anyone have any data on how many Anglican church plants there are in the UK? And ideally a breakdown by movement e.g. New Wine/HTB etc.?

Someone please save Kafka from the hands of Raab (claiming 'kafkaesque' attack on him) . The Trial and other books are about powerless, low-status people facing the cruelty of the state, not a high-status person like him facing due process which is open to scrutiny.

.@Mike_Fabricant - here is a letter @James_Harper1 and I have written to you asking you to urgently consider voting against the #IllegalMigrationBill tonight. https://t.co/Te3k4OodDK

[Ruth @ruth_edmonds]

Finally, we think the plans are simply morally abhorrent, for all the above reasons and because the true measure of a society is how it treats its most vulnerable. History will judge these plans as a backward step and an example of desperately poor policy making driven by fear.
