The Chagossian people have a fundamental right to self determination. The future of their homeland must be determined by a referendum. Anything else would be an appalling violation of their human rights.

Incredible news. Overnight the Chagossians have returned to their homeland on the Chagos Islands. They are now British passport holders on British territory. I wish them well.

It is not illegal in the slightest to publicly criticise Islam and trans ideology. Freedom of speech must be protected. Police overreach must be nipped in the bud. Government intervention is needed.

Apparently Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 19.5-6 that marriage is one man and one woman is just ā€˜facile anachronistic judgementalism’.

One day the CofE will wake up to the reality that love is the goal, not facile anachronistic judgementalism.

The Chair of the @CommonsHomeAffs committee said it would be taken seriously if I were to receive any inappropriate comeback as a result of giving evidence in good faith. Since I now believe that I’m being institutionally bullied as a result of my evidence, I’ll be taking steps.

The Rt Revd @MatthewPFirth, former vicar of a prominent church in Darlington @DioceseofDurham has recently become a Bishop in @FreeCofEngland. The @churchofengland recognises the orders of @FreeCofEngland and so Bishop Matthew is now recognised as a Bishop by the CofE.

It’s been a privilege over the last few days to speak at the Clergy Conference of the Southern Diocese of the Free Church of England, leading sessions on spiritual renewal, church growth, and change management.

Many Anglicans are realising that, although they like their local church, they cannot in good conscience stay in that church under the oversight of a bishop who has opted for false teaching. If that’s you, please do join us. A warm welcome awaits you. Welcome home!

Many Anglican clerics, members of the laity, and parishes are looking for Alternative Spiritual Oversight (ASO) at the moment due to serious departures from biblical doctrine. If you’re in the north of England, Scotland, north Wales, or Northern Ireland, do get in touch with me.

After the service it was a privilege, from the steps of Sheffield City Hall, to address a rally of 300 people in opposition to the brutal Islamist regime in Iran. Let justice roll down like waters.

My Bishop’s Riding is taking slightly longer than expected. It was excellent today to be with the saints at the Church of St Abdias of Susa in Sheffield. Thank you for such a delicious lunch afterwards!
