The campaign against Brexit that we should have had. Imagine if every time we had seen Labour campaigning it was with honest messages like this one from @DavidLammy, letting people know that they had been sold a lie.

Just listening to Radio 3 which is playing the European Broadcasting Union's (EBU) special day of Christmas concerts from Malmo, Stuttgart, Ljubljana, Gdansk, Riga, Merseberg and Sofia. Feeling sad that the people of Europe are wondering what on earth we're doing leaving the EU

This is still the finest dismantlement of Boris Johnson that I have seen in a very long time. This should be shared every single day until we vote on December 12th. #GE2019

Suddenly got a great sense of optimism this morning that we're going to see back of Boris and stay in the EU. #Remain

Maybe this reveals slightly different understandings of baptism, unsurprising given our different churches! My position on this would be rooted in the certainty of Romans 6. 3-5. While I can accept that Jesus waits for a person, to rebaptise would be like saying Jesus failed.
