  • Church of England revs with a difference Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin talk about the biggest issues in church and state. This time:

    - Enoch Starmer goes hard in on immigration in the UK. Nothing to do with Reform surging in the polls of course!

    - Romans rejoice as the first American Pope is elected! World leaders pledge their cooperation and what relevance does this have to the Anglican sphere?

    - Updated anti-bullying guidance in CofE schools: but is this what it seems or simply a Trojan Horse for a pernicious anti-Christian ideology?

    All that and a little bit more as ever!

  • Church of England rev with a difference Jamie Franklin pulls no punches as he analyses JD Vance's excoriating speech to a group of European leaders at a security summit in Munich. In a reversal of expectation, Vance claimed that the greatest threat to European security was not Russia but was the internal degradation of European society itself. He also took aim at the attack on free speech in the form of the monitoring of ostensible thought crime in Britain. Rev Jamie considers his assertions and contrasts them with the rebuttal given by Labour Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds who also claims to be speaking from a Christian perspective.
    After that viewers can partake of a full-length interview Rev Jamie gave for the Thinking Slow podcast on the subject of his new book The Great Return: Why Only a Restoration of Christianity Can Save Western Civilisation.

  • Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie French are joined by former Old Bailey judge and lay minister Charles Wide KC for a deep dive into the shady world of Project Spire: the Church Commissioners' project to give £100 million rising to £1 billion of Church of England money to communities and people ostensibly disadvantaged by the historic legacy of slavery.

    But has this project been carried out ethically and with proper legal and intellectual safeguards and are its representatives being fully transparent about what is really going on behind the scenes? Do the Church Commissioners even have the legal right to give away money that was never intended for such usage?

    All that plus our take on who the next Archbishop of Canterbury should be and all the usual banter.

  • Church of England vicar Jamie Franklin sits down with Heritage Party founder and leader David Kurten who speaks about why he is so concerned about the Labour Government's Schools and Wellbeing Bill which will fundamentally change the nature of the relationship between children and the state. Also discussed:
    - The Climate and Nature Bill which would amount to a land grab of 30% of the countryside in the name of environmentalism and climate activism.
    - Agenda 2030 and the globalists' plan to destroy agriculture, cultivate lab-based meat, and end private transport.
    - Why only a specifically Christian political movement can change any of this.
    - And more besides.
