The terror attack at #BondiBeach is a cowardly act of hatred & senseless violence. We stand with the victims, their families, and the Jewish community targeted during #Hanukkah. We stand together against #antisemitism, #extremism, and terror. https://t.co/B4YmliPQLn

Police said the gunmen were a 50-year-old father, who was a licensed firearms holder, and his 24-year-old son.

Yes, this Vicar definitely doesn’t think so! The refugee Christ and family calls us to a different response to Christ and #Christmas to Mr Yaxley-Lennon. #OutsidersWelcome
Tommy Robinson’s Christmas Carol service appears to be a flop. Relativly small numbers and pretty low energy Clearly most people don’t think ‘Christ’ needs to be put back in Christmas Tommy Robinson-style

Plans to leave refugees in a state of perpetual uncertainty about where and if they can rebuild their lives are not just performative cruelty, they are counterproductive to integration and the economy. It doesn’t have to be like this - there is a better way forward rooted in

Policies like seizing asylum seekers’ jewellery, making refugees wait 20 years for permanent settlement, and deporting families after they’ve resettled here because their country is “deemed safe” are wrong on every level. We are throwing vulnerable people under the bus to

That a 'liberal' bishop would send this, in both content and tone, makes it hard not to see this as a deep betrayal. https://t.co/sZe7QyCdXo

I’m beyond “fed up” - after 25 years as a priest in this institution still searching for this radical inclusion for those of us in the LGBTi community - feel “let down” (polite version) by Bishops and feels like self harm staying in this church again! Time to reflect! #llf
There is much to be said, in due course, about this betrayal. For now, one thing stands out. There is not a single mention of LGBTQIA people in this statement. This was supposed to be about us, with us, for us. It is none of those things. https://t.co/zfNtwN4Ry6

Today in #Woodlesford we paused & lit a candle & prayed for those in the #Jewish community a week ago killed/injured in the horrific attack at a Synagogue in #Manchester also remembered the arson attack at a Mosque in #Sussex-we reject hate in all its forms #BritainStandsTogether

It's good that @GNev2 is speaking out as a middle aged white man ...showing some real understanding of the challenges we are facing in the UK and the need for us to respect and live well together. #NevilleIN #respect
"The division that's been created is absolutely disgusting. Mainly created by angry middle-aged white men who know exactly what they're doing." - Gary Neville.
