Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs

Rev with a difference Jamie Franklin sits down to give you the soundest take on recent events. This time:
The latest on the Keir Starmer Mandelson debacle as I ask why the political discourse in Britain has degraded to such an extent.
The Assisted Suicide bill fails in the House of Lords. The country is spared but how long until Leadbeater tries to resurrect the foul corpse?
And Russell Brand has a new book on how to become a Christian. I comment on his appearance on Piers Morgan's Uncensored and his cringing inability to locate a passage in the Prophet Isaiah.
All that, your correspondence, hymn of the week, and a little more as ever.

And both men speak about their experience of the resurgence of interest in traditional worship, particularly among young men.
