I'm devastated for the family and friends of Jason Arday.
He faced an unacceptable public hounding and campaign of abuse. I know many Londoners will be angry and upset this evening.
Jason Arday was the victim of a pernicious public shaming that other people in his position simply wouldn’t have faced.
His death was a tragedy, but once again it should be a wake up call for all of us.

"When people talk about the need for Black Excellence I counter with an insistence on Black mediocrity: the right for black people to be as average, flawed, compromised & mistaken as any other group of people. The right, ultimately, to be human." R.I.P. Jason Arday

Wishing Christians and Muslims everywhere Happy Lent and Ramadan Kareem! As our period of abstinence and prayer coincide this year, may it remind us how much we share in common & strengthen our resolve to build better & deeper friendships among ourselves & with others. ❤️✝️☪️

This week something rare happens - the start of Lent and Ramadan coincide.
For both Christians and Muslims, it’s a time of fasting, prayer and renewal.
While some may choose to focus on our differences, in London we’ll be united by our desire to deepen our connections with what matters most.
Wishing peace and blessings to everyone observing Lent and Ramadan this year, all over the world.

An urgent update on Sudan. I beg you all to share this far and wide.
Across Sudan, acute malnutrition is expected to worsen in 2026 according to the alert, with a 13.5% increase in cases of acute malnutrition in children under five and pregnant and breastfeeding women – from 3.7 million children and women in 2025, to nearly 4.2 million in 2026. Violent conflict ensues, undermining humanitarian service delivery and disrupting people’s access to agriculture production and livelihoods, exacerbating vulnerability and suffering.
Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) – the most dangerous and deadly form of extreme hunger – is expected to increase to 800,000 cases, up 4% since 2025.

‘Respair’ is a word recorded just once in the OED. It means ‘fresh hope’, a recovery from despair. I wish the world and the Church and human hearts everywhere respair in the new year. @thetimes @guardian @ChurchTimes @churchofengland

When women from resistance & liberation movements are meaningfully included, their perspectives help bridge divides & shape agreements that address the roots of conflict.

Special evening at Southwark Cathedral with the Community of the Cross of Nails and St Ethelburgha’s. A privilege to speak against hatred and the power of shared humanity. Plus a visit from the local cat.

I welcome the really positive news that the first phase of a peace deal has been agreed, and now ratified by the Israeli cabinet.
It will see an immediate ceasefire, the release of the hostages, and the unimpeded flow of humanitarian aid to Palestinians in desperate need.
This deal is long overdue, but I hope it endures for the sake of all the innocent Palestinians and Israelis whose lives have been shattered and who deserve to live in peace and security.

The arson attack on a mosque on the weekend of #VisitMyMosque is not the first attack on a mosque recently
There isn't the scale of coverage, interest & prominence from media outlets or senior politicians standing up against these crimes - doesn't mean they don't happen

This was my local, for years. Lots of gatherings there to support their ministry, and to prepare for ‘incidents’, fortunate few major ones in practise, where ecumenical and interfaith chaplaincy excel.

"Spaces for dialogue and exchange among Sudanese are crucial to build bridges & work on an understanding of what a political process can look like."

This year marks thirty years since @CrisisGroup was founded in response to the Bosnian war.
On International Day of Peace, President @EroComfort reflects on what we’ve learned about stopping conflict - and why listening early & looking deeper matters more than ever. #PeaceDay
