My latest for @EvangelicalsNow, in which I assess that speech by @andyburnham. Proverbs 25:14 says "Like clouds and wind without rain is one who boasts of gifts never given". Can he actually deliver? And what about families? And the church? e-n.org.uk/comment/burnhams-…

Burnham’s big vision – but what about family and church?

That was a big speech. Big in terms of rhetoric. Big in terms of delivery. Big in terms of diagnosis. This was Andy Burnham speaking to the Labour Party faithful a few days ago and setting a direct...

This is the constitution working. The expert house asked the elected house to think again. The Commons did so, and agreed with the Lords that the Bill wasn't safe.

This is absolutely right. Huge thanks and credit to so, so many campaigners. But especially to MPs who voted against and those who swapped from voting for. Thank you.

Praise God, the House of Commons, MPs voted 286 to 270 against the Assisted Suicide Bill! This result means that this dangerous and irredeemably flawed assisted suicide Bill will not become law. For the remainder of this Parliament, it is highly unlikely we will see any further attempts to introduce assisted suicide.

Labour’s Janet Daby is switching from pro to against. Says she had a troubled conscience after the last vote and has been swayed by the evidence: “The government’s own impact assessment…suggests that people from ethnic minority backgrounds may be more susceptible to coercion.”
