    It isn’t just Scotland where there are people getting excited about the possibility of marriage law being changed to be more equitable you know.

    Here’s a video of the Dean of St Alban’s speaking out for the cause down in Englandshire.

    Rather well, he does it too, I think.

    I like Thought For The Day, but (some times more than others) am put off when the voice of the clergyman appears to belong, even just slightly, to a world of hypocrisy and pretend-holiness. The quality of voice this morning was different, it sounded completely secular, so much so that I was reminded of how extraordinary that vicars and priests tend to put on a voice when they pray. I really liked the content too, and that is why I searched out the name Kelvin Holdsworth on the web. Good luck with your ministry, you have made a small but significant difference in my life this morning.

It was unknown to me. It is also unplayable by me. I find it curiously reassuring that someone locally aspires to music that…

Bishop Michael will have completed more than 10 years as…
