I have begun a research project on the BBC’s coverage of conversion therapy. Looking through more than 30 articles published over the last ten years, it is completely clear that the corporation’s output is not remotely balanced or impartial. It needs to change. This is the first line in the sand. If we continue to see editors signing off on biased representations of this important and politically relevant topic, we will continue to hold them to account, with each infraction demonstrating their brazen attitude towards truth.

Christian street preacher Shaun O’Sullivan has been cleared by a jury at Swindon Crown Court after a trial that raised serious questions about freedom of speech and the policing of so-called “hate claims.”
New analysis in the UK by independent public health consultant Kevin Duffy has shown that many women who access abortion in their twenties will remain childless at 45 – a risk they are not told about.
why has the TRA redacted all reference to Islam or Muslims? What do they think they are hiding? Do they really believe that the British public won’t draw the obvious conclusion? If they really think that then they really ought to do a better job regulating teaching in this country. One would have to be very badly educated not to see the blindingly obvious here.
After being rushed through the House of Commons earlier this year, the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill continues to be scrutinised in the House of Lords. We have previously warned about the dangers of the bill which validate long-held concerns of overreach into the independence of schools and the private lives of Christian families.
“This case highlights the dangerous consequences of the vague and weaponised use of the term ‘Islamophobia’. In a free and democratic society, we must be able to discuss public events and express concern about violence and injustice without fear of losing our livelihoods. The definition of Islamophobia is being used to silence legitimate speech and punish those who dare to speak out. We stand firmly behind this teacher and his right to freedom of expression.”
“This wasn’t about me. It’s about the erosion of our hard-won freedoms and the right to speak truth in love. I’ve never been arrested in 25 years. I wasn’t there to cause trouble, I was there out of love, to share hope and to help people understand the love of Christ. When I heard the charges were dropped, I was relieved, but also angry. So much time, energy, and stress wasted for nothing. I go out because people are hurting. I won’t let fear silence the gospel."
Have abortion buffer zones been weaponised to shut down democratic debate? And are pro-lifers facing a miscarriage of justice due to financial disparities during private prosecutions? A new report, commissioned by the Christian Legal Centre, argues this is the case in the UK.
“The council’s actions were not only unlawful but deeply unjust. We will continue to stand with Victoria and others like her to ensure that no one is silenced for holding Christian beliefs or speaking out to protect children.”
Burning a book is not an offence in Britain. Or is it? It depends which book. If you burn a copy of the Qur’an in public, then the police will arrest you, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will charge you, and a judge will convict you. The police, the CPS, and the judiciary seem intent on enforcing Islamic blasphemy.
“The language and terms used by the Trust such as ‘gender identity’ and ‘non-binary’ are not recognised as protected characteristics under the Equality Act. Yet the Trust presents them as if they are not only protected but supersede both other legally protected beliefs and the authority of the Supreme Court."
We all want to believe that MPs and other decision makers are highly civilised people who would never restrict healthcare funding in such a way that pushed people towards assisted suicide. This is naïve optimism. Once the door to this alternative treatment is opened, it is always there.
Truth protects us all. And that’s why this judgment is not enough. It is one thing for a person to deliberately present themselves as if they are a member of the opposite sex. It is another, much more serious, step for our institutions to endorse and promote that lie through official documents, the court system, hospitals and schools.
Christian nurse, Jennifer Melle, has been suspended by an NHS Trust after she spoke to the media about how she was investigated and disciplined for refusing to refer to a male child sex offender patient as a woman.
