POV: You’re a station I’m trying to use and I need to buy the 50% wheelchair discount, but I can’t because the ticket office is closed and TVMs don’t sell them.

Delighted to be welcoming #methodistconf to @YWMethodist !! Fabulous spoken word from our Chair Kerry to invite you all to the hospitality of Gods own lands!
Another brilliant bible study from @UrbanFriar at #methodistconf this morning…. Can we imagine more rather than restricting ourselves to human wisdom?
I love this.
It is possible to say sorry.

💬 "Let’s listen to the testimonies of the LGBTIQA+ people who served in the Armed Services under the ban."
@zackpolanski on our call for the Government to release the independent review into the treatment of LGBTIQA+ veterans immediately 👇
ALT REVIEW INTO TREATMENT OF LGBTIOA+ VETERANS "If the Government is serious about addressing this historic injustice, it must release the report immediately. The ban on LGBTIQA+ people serving in the military was wrong 20 years ago, and it is unacceptable that it has taken over 20 years to address the harm done to people serving before that."

What an immense treat to have @hodgehillvicar lead bible study at #methodistconf today. So much stirred, wonderful challenge to explore a ‘deeper richer queerness’, a decomposition, as we travel with God in (hopefully) reconnecting to our radicalism

As the Home Office has publishes the economic impact assessment for its ‘illegal migration bill’ estimating it will cost £169,000 per person to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, the obvious question is what would it contribute to the economy to grant them leave to stay & work here?

This Refugee Week, hearing the stories of Ukrainian people. This, the second blog of the week, focuses on how our appeal is enabling refugees to find community away from home.

The fate of those on the #Titan is undeniably awful, and I’m praying this morning for the families of the dead. But it makes me incredibly angry that when hundreds of people of no means, searching for safety, die at sea we have no continual coverage, no hollywood directors…
…weighing in, no photos of those precious people’s faces, no individual tributes to the lives lost in terrifying, lonely, cold and painful moments.
God have mercy on us in our forgetting how precious EVERY human life is. #refugeeswelcome

Hey Christians, if you are at a pride event there exactly and only two messages you have any right to share as Christians:
1. God adores you in your glorious, holy, queerness.
2. We apologize for all the harm that the Church has caused the Queer community.
That's it.

Exactly one week before this party, and Boris Johnson told us all to be extra careful at Christmas, I walked in front of the hearse carrying the body of my friend.We were allowed a maximum of 10 in the cream of course, which included her 3 week old nephew she never met. 1/2
