NHS SCOTLAND — National Services Scotland

Scotland’s NHS service is planning to fast-track irreversible surgeries for people who believe they are the opposite sex, according to the Telegraph.
A report by the service claims ‘barriers’ to gender reassignment surgery need to be removed and operations made more widely available. These operations include mastectomies, breast implants, and genital reassignment, as well as hormone treatments.
The document also claims the new plan can ‘benefit’ patients who identify as a different gender.
Furthermore, the report includes a suggestion that GPs rather than specialists be allowed to send patients for procedures. It says a single opinion is enough to refer for surgery in most cases.

Mental health issue

The group that wrote the report named it SPATH (Scottish Pathway for Trans Healthcare) in an apparent attempt to link itself to WPATH. World Association for Transgender Health(WPATH) is a group that advocates gender surgery for adolescents.
Firstly, the report states that counselling or psychotherapy examining gender identity is not a prerequisite for any gender-affirming healthcare. This means that people could be sent for operations without any interrogation of alternative reasons for gender dysphoria.
Additionally, It adds that no one is expected to describe their sexuality or current gender identity in stereotypical ways in order to access gender-affirming healthcare.
‘Access to hormones and surgeries can act as a prophylactic measure against distress. A person who identifies as a different gender can have persistent gender incongruence without distress and can still benefit from gender-affirming hormones or surgeries.’

Quick Fix?

A director with the For Women Scotland campaign group (FWS), said surgeries on healthy bodies should not be seen as a quick fix. Trina Budge added that there was no proof they resolved gender dysphoria.
‘This now appears to be a service to fast-track surgeries selected by the patient, to satisfy how they wish to look, rather than any clinical attempt to address a mental health issue’, she said.
Meanwhile, Nicola Sturgeon’s government has urged Lady Haldane(Judge) to dismiss a case brought by FWS.
The campaign group insists it is quite clear that UK legislation allows a male to become legally female.
FWS argues that the change which the government hopes would boost the number of persons identifying as a different gender, is unlawful under the Equality Act.
However, Ruth Crawford, KC, representing the government, believes that a person born male could be legally seen as a woman under the 2004 Gender Recognition Act.

‘Very troubling indeed’

The plans to enforce these rules in Scotland follow approaches advocated by a group called the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH).
The organisation assert that it is unethical for medical professionals to stop children from receiving the treatment if they want to stop developing into the wrong sex. WPATH also suggests the age at which children should be able to receive such treatment should be lowered to 14.
Dr David Bell, a whistleblower at England’s Gender Identity Service for children(GIDS) even said it was ‘very troubling indeed’ to see the Scottish moving in this direction.
‘We have an ethical duty towards young people and adults not to treat things at face value,’ he added.
Christian Voice in several articles has said in accordance with the Bible that healthy people require no medications.
Mark 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Is it not harmful to society that young people will as a result of these new treatments make decisions that will have an adverse effect on their lives?

State-endorsed form of ‘social transition’

A spokesman for NHS Scotland said the organisation would soon submit its final recommendations for a new treatment to SNP ministers.
‘This new protocol draws upon the widest appropriate evidence base and relevant clinical data,’ he added.
Subject to Scottish Government approval, it will replace the current arrangements. This will date from 2012 and determine gender reassignment pathways throughout NHS Scotland.

The Issue

Aside from the cost of living crisis, the treatment of gender and sexuality in children and adolescents is still a topic of public debate. The first shock came from psychoanalyst Dr. Marcus Evans, who served on the board of Tavistock Gender Identity Development Services (GIDS).
The consultant quit his job after denouncing that doctors were subjected to censorship at the clinic.

They expressed concern, for example, about the hurried procedures that resulted in ‘inadequate clinical assessments’ and premature interventions on young patients.
Dr. Evans also revealed that many of his colleagues were under attack from activist groups to keep the issue secret.

The Big Regret

The case of a 26-year-old female(now Sam) who underwent a double mastectomy and hormone therapy to become male is worth reading.
The young lady, decided to pay for private therapy sessions when she began to question her gender identity at the age of 21. This follows a two and a half years wait period for an NHS appointment.
She was initially thrilled to have had a private appointment, and after an online self-diagnosis was given the go-ahead to begin hormone therapy and undergo a double mastectomy.
Just two years after the hormone treatment and a double mastectomy, she began suffering health complications. The young woman realised a full gender reassignment surgery was not the answer.
By the time her initial NHS appointment came through, it fully dawned on her she had made a mistake and tried to seek help to re-transition.
After two years of taking hormones, she began to suffer vaginal atrophy and decided to opt out of the gender reassignment surgery. She has transitioned back to living as a woman.

Other Cases

The story above is not an isolated case. As reported on our website, the stories are piling up of young people who change their gender and eventually regret it. A related organisation referred to as Detransition Advocacy Network was formed to bring them together.
Meanwhile, hundreds of young adults are turning to the organisation. They are protesting that hormone treatment has not solved their problems. At the same time, the number of minors who turn to GIDS is increasing exponentially. In 2009, there were 77 children and adolescents. Ten years later, there are already 2590 referrals per year.
What has caused this increase? Ideology? Interest? Or just a greater awareness of gender dysphoria?
The Telegraph wrote that 35 doctors resigned from the GIDS, much like Dr. Evans in order to resist pressure from the campaign group Mermaids.

Scriptural and Scientific Evidence

The Bible in different chapters has made clear God’s intentions for mankind. Any attempt to alter God’s creation will eternally not bring peace except in the place of repentance.
Mark 10:6-7 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female…For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife.
Genesis 5:1-2 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him… Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
Dr. Paul McHugh, a professor of psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, says that ‘transgendered’ men do not become women, nor do ‘transgendered’ women become men.
Research online maintains that sex reassignment does not adequately address the psychosocial difficulties faced by people who identify as transgender. Even when the procedures are successful technically and cosmetically. In cultures that are relatively ‘trans-friendly,’ transitioners still face poor outcomes.
The Guardian summarised the results of a review by Birmingham University’s Aggressive Research Intelligence Facility(ARIF).
ARIF concludes that none of the studies provides conclusive evidence that gender reassignment is beneficial for patients.

A Hindu Prime Minister

11 November 2022

Rishi Sunak has become the first Hindu Prime Minister of the UK following a series of political twists and turns.

The former chancellor was selected by more than 180 Conservative MPs to succeed Liz Truss as Tory leader. Mr Sunak’s appointment has been described by supporters as nothing short of a miracle.

Nevertheless, there are deep concerns as to what his religion will mean for Britain and the body of Christ. That being said, a widely-circulated photo of the new prime minister making a Hindu prayer in front of a Downing Street door is not all it seems.

’My religion is Hindu’

Rishi Sunak is of Indian descent. He is the first British Prime Minister to be a practising Hindu who bows down before graven images as gods. The Bible says:

Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. … 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.

When Rishi Sunak became a minister in the Theresa May Cabinet, he took his oath of office on the Bhagavad Gita. At the time he said, ‘I am now a citizen of Britain. But my religion is Hindu. My religious and cultural heritage is Indian. I proudly say that I am a Hindu, and my identity is also a Hindu.’
Having a leader who worships a god aside from the Prince of Peace is a challenge and appears to normalise other gods in our constitutionally Christian nation.

Diwali:’Festival of Lights’

A video shared widely on social media in the last few weeks of the Prime Minister lighting candles outside a door on Downing Street attracted thousands of comments, all assuming it has just happened.
However, our investigations revealed that the video was taken in October 2020 while he was Chancellor of the Exchequer. We are of course concerned that such rituals will continue under his leadership. He has already held a Diwali reception in N0 10. What spirits or even spiritual altars will he leave behind?

Diwali, or Dipawali, is India’s biggest and most important holiday of the year. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indians light outside their homes to symbolise the inner light they claim protects them from spiritual darkness. Over centuries, Diwali has become a national festival which non-Hindus partake in. For instance, in Jainism, Diwali marks the nirvana, or spiritual awakening, of lord mahavira on October 15, 527 B.C. In Sikhism, it honors the day that Guru Hargobind Ji, the Sixth Sikh Guru, was freed from imprisonment. Buddhists in India celebrate Diwali as well. The Bible says:

Joshua 23:7 That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them.

Britain remains a Christian Country

In AD871, King Alfred the Great established legal codes known as the Doom Book to govern England after his victory over Viking invaders. The Vikings submitted and accepted the peace treaty, which stated that their leader and thirty of their most honourable men would become Christians.

King Alfred codified three prior Saxon codes to which he prefixed the ten commandments of Moses. He incorporated rules of life from the Mosaic code and the Christian code of ethics. During his reign, Alfred was advised by a council of nobles and church leaders. This council was called the Witan.

King Edgar’s Coronation

It says the whole earth is subject to the power and empire of Christ our Redeemer — The King Edgar window in Bath Abbey. Edgar is pictured holding the Sceptre and the Orb under the Cross although this was first used by King Henry VIII at his coronation in 1509. The Orb says the whole earth is subject to the power and empire of Christ our Redeemer

The stage was set for the later coronation of King Edgar by Bishop Dunstan in Bath Abbey in 975AD.

King Edgar made the first Coronation Oath:

‘In the name of the Holy Trinity. I promise three things to the Christian people subject to me:
‘Firstly, that God’s church and all the Christian people of my dominions will be held in true peace
‘Secondly, I forbid robbery and all unlawful deeds by all ranks of men.
‘Thirdly, I promise and command justice and mercy in all judgments, in order that the gracious and merciful lord, who liveth and reigneth, may thereby forgive us all through his everlasting mercy.’

Coronation Oath 1953

Thus it was that 978 years later, on 2nd June 1953, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth made her own oath, responding to Archbishop Fisher, in a communion service full of Christian teaching and symbolism:

Archbishop. ‘Will you to your power cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?’ The Queen. ‘I will’.

Archbishop. ‘Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel? Will you to the utmost of your power maintain in the United Kingdom the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law? Will you maintain and preserve inviolably the settlement of the Church of England, and the doctrine, worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by law established in England?’ The Queen. ‘All this I promise to do.’

Only then was the Queen anointed and crowned as monarch.

United Kingdom is constitutionally Christian

Britain’s laws are based on Judeo-Christian thinking. The Church of England is the established Church, and our history, heritage, and arts are all profoundly influenced by Christianity.

Christianity and the UK are inseparable. Our Head of State and monarch of the British empire is represented as ‘Charles the Third, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of His other Realms and Territories. King, Head of the Commonwealth, ‘Defender of the Faith.’

By way of convention and practice, the Prime Minister is sworn in to govern based on the laws and Christian doctrines that established the United Kingdom. How will these doctrines be understood, let alone upheld, by Rishi Sunak, who is Hindu?

‘A very bad Christian’

To be fair, Mr Sunak’s immediate predecessor Liz Truss was not a professing, let alone confessing Christian. The best she could do was: “I share the values of the Christian faith and the Church of England.”

As for Boris Johnson, he told The Times journalist, Tom McTague, that he counted himself “a kind of very, very bad Christian”. Christianity “makes a lot of sense” and “is a superb ethical system”, he continued. Furthermore, in his Easter message last year, Boris declared: ‘Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life, not just today but every day. His teaching and the message of his death and resurrection permeates through every aspect of daily life.’

That is more than Mr Sunak would say. Nevertheless, although Mr Johnson understood the EU’s paganism, and why the UK should be free of it, his Covid policies of lockdowns and restrictions, let alone his Net Zero fanaticism, strayed far from the ways of the Lord.

Hindu beliefs

Hinduism dates back four thousand years. The name ‘Hindu’ comes from the word Indus. It is made up of different religious practices and originated near the Indus River in India. Most of the world’s Hindu worshipers live today in India where Mr Sunak’s family heritage is from.

Most forms of Hinduism are henotheistic, a term invented by one Max Müller. They worship a single deity, known as Brahman, but still recognise other gods and goddesses. Mr Müller stated that henotheism means ‘monotheism in principle and polytheism in fact’.

The Institute for Human Knowledge says a Hindu can pick a personal deity of choice from 330 Hindu gods. Hindus revere all living creatures and worship animals and things like ‘luck’ and ‘wealth’ (that’s ‘Lakshmi’). Hindus make wooden or plaster images of the gods of various sizes and place them up in their temples and houses. Ganesh, the elephant, and Hanuman, the monkey, are favourites. Around Diwali time ignorant teachers trying to be ‘inclusive’ will set these up in state school classrooms. However, the pantheistic element of Hinduism also sees god in everything and everything in god.

Moreover, followers believe there are multiple paths to reaching the divine. It is complicated by the ‘Karma’ concept of constant rebirth based on conduct in this life. Hindus are on a journey towards understanding the ultimate reality of nothingness. The goal of the Hindu is to be absorbed into the godhead through Nirvana, literally, ‘snuffing out’. Evangelists say: ‘Never offer a Hindu eternal life; that is what he is trying to escape from.’

God broke into creation

Christianity teaches that God is separate from creation. He made it, sustains it, relates to it, and broke into it when he became incarnate in Jesus Christ. Hinduism with its pantheism will never have this. The God with whom Britain identifies is not made with wood or plaster. Neither does our God share his name with other gods:

Isaiah 42:8 I am the Lord: that is my name, and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me, there is no God.

There is but one God and only one God and Saviour:
Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear oh Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!
Hosea 13:4 Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.

Furthermore, the only way to reach the Supreme Being, Almighty God, is through the Lord Jesus Christ.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

The United Kingdom now has a leader who does not recognise the God of Abraham. What happens to our faith as a nation? As Christians, our work just began. We must continue to defend and uphold the Christian Faith. Our prayer is that Britain remains united by the name of Jesus Christ in the love of God.

Prayer

The United Kingdom now has a leader who does not recognise the God of Abraham. What happens to our faith as a nation? For us Christians, our work just began.

Pray against every attack on Christianity and the people of God. Pray against principalities and powers in higher places. Pray that the coronation on 6th May 2023 upholds the full heritage of the UK’s Christian Faith. Pray for our leaders, especially that the Lord Jesus convicts Rishi Sunak to repent of Hinduism and find the true faith. Pray that the Holy Spirit convicts Rishi Sunak of his need for a Saviour, Jesus Christ, God incarnate. What better time for that conviction to come at that feast of the incarnation we call ‘Christmas’.

National Trust Quick Vote is ‘Corrupt’

By

Stephen

7 November 2022

Following Saturday’s National Trust Annual General Meeting held on 5th November 2022 in Bath, Christian Voice today criticises the Trust over a new voting practice we describe as ‘corrupt’.

The National Trust is Britain’s top conservation charity, so its woke posturing and virtue-signalling matters and affects our spiritual and cultural climate. To avoid criticism of its wokeness, this year the National Trust introduced a controversial mechanism known as ‘Quick Vote’ this year. Members voting online were invited to tick the ‘Quick Vote’ box to vote for all the candidates for Council the Trust recommended and against the resolutions it disliked. ‘Quick Vote’ was even presented as ‘Option 1’, ahead of proper voting.

We have now framed a Resolution against Quick Vote for debate and vote at the 2023 AGM. We know our petition against Quick Vote will be voted down, ironically by their use of Quick Vote, but that will make our point even stronger, to the glory of God.

QUICK VOTE USED AGAINST RESOLUTIONS

There were six resolutions in all. They included a policy resolution to stop banking with Barclays and another to pull the Trust back from a tunnel project for the A303 at Stonehenge.

Christian Voice proposed two resolutions, one to cease wilding and wetting projects on Trust farmland, the other to stop the Trust parading in gay pride. The latter topped the yes vote for policy resolutions. But it made no difference with Quick Vote in the mix.

Two management resolutions were proposed by pressure group Restore Trust. They were firstly to appoint an ombudsman for the Trust, and secondly to prevent the chairman skewing the vote on resolutions with ‘discretionary’ members’ proxy votes.

EVERY MEMBERS’ RESOLUTION VOTED DOWN!

But they were behind the curve. Overnight, the Trust had moved the goal-posts. In the event, as the headline over an article in the Daily Telegraph put it, the ‘Annual General Meeting featured (an) unusual moment when every resolution proposed by members was voted down.’

Discretionary proxy votes this year were down by a factor of ten from last year. In 2021 the chairman cast around 20,000 block votes against each resolution the Trust objected to. This year, 2022, that was down to around 2,000. But hiding in the ‘No’ vote were the Quick Votes. The Trust did not disclose the number of Quick Votes. They simply included them in the ‘No’ vote, making it appear as if the resolutions lacked much more popular support than they did.

Based on the figures below, Restore Trust probably won the popular vote on the Chairman’s use of discretionary votes. It is shameful that the National Trust used both discretionary votes and Quick Vote to vote down that very resolution. Furthermore, our resolution on the Trust’s participation in gay pride possibly came close to securing half of the popular vote.

QUICK VOTE SKEWS COUNCIL ELECTIONS

It was worse when it came to the Council Elections. Last year, a candidate needed between 34,402 and 43,536 votes to be elected. This year, however, with Quick Vote tilting the table, the winning candidates secured between 63,771 votes and 72,963.

The Restore Trust candidates scored between 28,205 and 46,612 votes. Not one of them was elected. Under last year’s members-only voting system, at least three, possibly four, would have made it.

Quick Vote appears to have raised the bar for election by an average of almost 30,000 votes.

FULL BREAKDOWN CHALLENGE

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, proposed the wilding and gay pride resolutions. Today he said:

‘I have already challenged the National Trust to disclose the full breakdown of voting, separating votes cast by ‘Quick Vote’ from those cast in the popular vote in both the Council Elections and the Resolutions. Let’s see if the Trust can follow Biblical principles of honesty and transparency. I remind them:

Matt 10:26b there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

‘Then I call upon the National Trust to declare elected to Council those candidates who took the first seven places in the popular vote alone. Candidates only sneaking in because of Quick Vote lack all credibility and legitimacy.

‘In the past, the Trust Chairman used to cast proxy votes for Council Candidates. The Trust stopped this corrupt practice only very recently. It has now returned, called ‘Quick Vote’ instead.’

A COUNCIL OF YES-MEN

‘Under Quick Vote, if your face doesn’t fit, you won’t be elected to the Council. No outsider need even apply any more. Quick Vote is a stitch-up. And if Council members want to be re-elected, they will know not to rock the boat, because now they must be a ‘recommended candidate’ to secure the Quick Vote.

‘It is clear the Trust have introduced Quick Vote to entrench the status quo. In future, no Members’ Resolution critical of the Trust will ever be passed. The Trust don’t trust the members to vote the right way or elect the correct people to the Council. They are now plainly trying to eliminate dissent and build a Council of time-servers and yes-men. Quick Vote is designed to prevent accountability.’

CHAIRMAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED

‘The new Chairman, René Olivieri, was appointed in a fanfare as a safe pair of hands after the disastrously woke Tim Parker. But Mr Olivieri is entirely culpable for casting every single ‘Quick Vote’ to support the Trust’s establishment line and candidates. Brought in as a breath of fresh air, he has become just as corrupt as the rest of the National Trust Board. René Olivieri should be ashamed of himself.

‘Quick Vote is also now being used by a great many building societies, trying to avoid proper accountability just like the National Trust. The Building Societies Members Association (BSMA) is particularly critical of ‘Quick Vote’. In a list of desired changes, BSMA says: “All underhand practices such as the infamous ‘Quick Vote’ and tick boxes hidden in the small print should be banned”.’

John 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

STOP PRESS 11/11/2022

We have today heard from ‘Jo’ in ‘Governance’ who says the Trust won’t disclose the numbers:

‘Following the weekend’s AGM, the Trust will not be issuing any further details in respect of the breakdown of voting.
‘The voting results as published are already broken down into the number of specified votes and the number of discretionary proxy votes cast. Only the discretionary votes are cast by the Chair. Using Quick Vote means members specify how their vote is cast – and these are therefore counted in the specified votes declared in the results.
‘For the avoidance of doubt, the Chair has no rights in respect of casting votes on the Council elections. A discretionary voting option is not available for the elections.
‘There is no governance requirement to break down the results further.’

Indeed the couple of thousand ‘Discretionary’ Proxy Votes were cast at the Chairman’s discretion against all the Resolutions the Trust disliked. But so were the Quick Votes, in much larger numbers, AND they were cast for the Trust’s preferred candidates as well. It is just not true that the members ticking the Quick Vote box ‘specified’ how their votes were to be cast, resolution by resolution, candidate by candidate. They allowed the Trust to vote for them.

This lack of honesty and transparency in revealing the number is worse in its way than how Quick Vote has skewed, not just the resolution voting, but the Council Elections, as one might say, for everyone, for ever (or until it is ditched). This corruption is going to reflect very badly on the National Trust. Not only have they brought in a dishonest voting system, but they won’t even disclose how many votes it was responsible for! On any measure, the whole affair is disgraceful and will be seen as such.

MPs Outlaw Protests against Abortion

19 October 2022

Watch our youtube video on the MPs Outlaw Protests against Abortion by Stephen Green (and do not forget to subscribe to our channel)

Last night Members of Parliament voted to outlaw any form of protest outside abortion clinics.

MPs voted on Tuesday 19th October 2022 in favour of installing buffer zones 150 meters around all abortion clinics and hospitals in England and Wales. 297 MPs voted in favour of the amendment while 110 rejected it, a majority of 187. Two hundred and forty MPs did not vote at all.

Sign our Petition against Buffer Zones HERE.

MPs were allowed a free vote by their parties on the amendment, which meant they did not face pressure from party leaders to vote a certain way. It also meant the amendment was sure to pass; Labour and Liberal Democrats MPs always vote virtually en masse for abortion, while the Conservatives are always split.

What the New Clause Says

The new clause adds an ‘Offence of interference with access to or provision of abortion services.’
It says: ‘(1) A person who is within a buffer zone and who interferes with any person’s decision to access, provide, or facilitate the provision of abortion services in that buffer zone is guilty of an offence’ and the penalty can be six months in prison.

‘Interferes with’ means ‘(a) seeks to influence, (b) persistently, continuously or repeatedly occupies, (c) impedes or threatens, (d) intimidates or harasses, (e) advises or persuades, attempts to advise or persuade, or otherwise expresses opinion, (f) informs or attempts to inform about abortion services by any means, including, without limitation, graphic, physical, verbal or written means, or (g) sketches, photographs, records, stores, broadcasts, or transmits images, audio, likenesses or personal data of any person without express consent.’

One MP ventured that someone driving a partner or a friend to an abortion clinic would be guilty of a crime if they merely asked ‘Are you sure you want to go through with this?’ Guilty that is, if the car were within 150m of the clinic. If the car is outside that distance they can say what they like. Naturally, the Guardian claims the measure was necessary to protect women accessing abortion services from protests and harassment.

Clare Murphy, chief executive of the British Pregnancy Advisory Service, said ‘Every year, around 100,000 women are treated by a clinic or hospital for an abortion that is targeted by anti-abortion protests.
These groups attempt to deter or prevent women from accessing abortion care by displaying graphic images of foetuses, calling women ‘murderers’, and hanging baby clothing around clinic entrances, causing women significant distress. Today’s vote will bring an end to this activity.’
Note ‘abortion care’. But the Bible confirms a baby in the womb, or ‘foetus’ in the language of the pro-abortion people, is a living human being. This is Elizabeth, 6 months pregnant with John the Baptist, speaking to Mary, the mother of an embryonic Jesus:

Luke 1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

In that case, destroying that infant life is not ‘care’, it is murder, and the Bible condemns murder regardless of the means:

Deut 27:25 Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen.

Labour MP Stella Creasy proposed the new rules. She said: ‘Clause 11 is about abortion because, let us be honest, nobody is praying outside the places where people go to have a hip operation. Nobody offers rosary beads or dead foetuses outside the places people go when they have an ankle injury. This is about women accessing a very specific form of healthcare.’

No, indeed they are not. That is because those are genuine healthcare facilities; they are not places where people are being put to death, ripped out of what should be the safest place on God’s earth, a place of nurture and growth, as the Bible says:

Psalm 139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.

Ms Creasy said, ‘It does not stop free speech on abortion. It does not stop people protesting. It simply says you shouldn’t have the right to do this in the face of somebody, and very often these people are right up in front of people.’

Of course sending protestors 150 metres (164 yards) away does stop them protesting. And the Bible says:

Prov 31:8 Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.

Carla Lockhart, Democratic Unionist MP for Upper Bann in Ulster, said ‘Many women have been helped by volunteers outside abortion clinics. The right hon. Member for Gainsborough (Sir Edward Leigh) referred to Alina Dulgheriu, who wrote last week about her experience and how a lady helped her outside an abortion clinic. I will not repeat the story, but she explained that her “beautiful daughter would not be here today” without support from a volunteer handing out a leaflet outside the clinic.

Attack on Freedom of Speech

Under Article 10 of the Human Right Act 1998, everyone has the right to freedom of expression in the UK.
‘This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers.’
The amendment to the Public Order Bill is an attack on freedom of speech. Ironically, the Opposition are claiming the entire Bill is an attack on freedom of speech.
Home Office minister Jeremy Quin said Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) were effective in protecting abortion clinics, and that a blanket ban on protests was a ‘blunt approach and disproportionate given the existing powers that can and should be used’. Mr Quin voted ‘No’, but as we have seen, Tory MPs were allowed to vote as they wanted.

Hospitals with Buffers

Currently, police and local authorities are permitted to set up zones in response to complaints over protests.
In 2018, Ealing Council in west London established the country’s first buffer zone, around a Marie Stopes clinic. Pro-life campaigners lost a legal challenge against it in 2019.
Five abortion clinics have buffer zones set up under PSPOs, which are local authority-led powers. Other councils have subsequently proposed similar schemes, with the latest in Bournemouth banning not just preaching but singing.
Similar legislation has been proposed in Scotland.
In June, Sottish minister, Nicola Sturgeon, said the Scottish government would back a member’s bill that would see 150-metre no-go areas placed outside health facilities so women could access services without fear, harassment or intimidation.

Defaulters to Face the law

The Sponsor of the amendment bill Stella Creasy, said anyone found guilty of breaching the buffer zone will face a summary conviction with a prison term of up to six months, an unlimited fine, or both.
The Bill still has several stages to clear before becoming law, including scrutiny in the House of Lords.
Christian Voice National Director, Stephen Green, said today: ‘If this becomes law, which may God forbid, we shall need to test its limits by standing outside clinics, perhaps with placards with various Bible verses (it’s what we do) or just silently praying, or perhaps preaching in general. I do not mind being arrested for preaching or witnessing, and we can see how it runs in the courts. They have picked a fight with the God of heaven. Who can remain silent?’

Innocent Blood brings Judgment

The Bible says the shedding of innocent blood brings judgment:
Numb 35:33 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
If infanticide is legalised in a realm, the land indeed cannot be cleansed at all, and the judgment falls on the whole society. From the first recorded homicide in the Bible, we know that innocent blood cries to heaven:
Gen 4:10 And he (God) said (to Cain), What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.

Read and Pray

Gen 09:06; Gen 25:22-23; Exod 04:11; Exod 21:22-24; Exod 23:07
Pray for Godly leaders.
Thank God that there were found men and women to stand for life on Tuesday.
Pray the House of Lords will overturn the new clause. But above all, pray for an end to abortion in our land.
Pray for an MP to introduce a Texas-style ‘Heartbeat’ law.

Judge Rules Ms. Patrycja’s Anti-Vaccine Stance is Religious

By

-

5 September 2022

6

An employment judge has ruled that Patrycja Wierowska can argue at an upcoming tribunal that she chose to refuse the coronavirus vaccine for religious reasons.

According to the Daily Mail, Ms. Wierowska said the dismissal was due to her refusal to have a Covid-19 shot on religious grounds. Before being fired on 28th April 2021, she worked as a care giver for HC-One care homes.

Ms. Patrycja maintained her decision was based on the Christian principle that life is sacred. The use of aborted foetuses in testing Covid-19 vaccines is against her faith.
During an employment tribunal, Judge Eoin Fowell ruled that Ms. Wierowska could rely on her religion as a protected characteristic.
He wrote, ‘I am satisfied that her views about the vaccine are intimately connected with her religious faith. There is a sufficiently close and direct nexus between her refusal to take a Covid-19 vaccine and her underlying beliefs.’

Vaccines Vs. Aborted Foetuses

In December 2020, Reuters reported that the Vatican told RC members it was morally acceptable to use Covid-19 vaccines if there were no alternatives.
The Vatican said granting of moral legitimacy was related to the principle of ‘different degrees of responsibility of cooperation in evil.’
However, giving evidence at the hearing, Ms. Patrycja said she accepted the Vatican’s position but that she also had ‘free will.’

Furthermore, a full fact report published on the Christian Voice website, shows that fetal cell lines grown in a laboratory based on aborted fetal cells collected generations ago were used in testing during the research and development of the mRNA and Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

An earlier version was the line of MRC-5 cells, originally taken from an aborted baby in 1966. Hence, pretending that aborted foetuses and vaccines are unconnected is outrageous.

Freedom without Exemptions

Article 18 of the United Nations(UN) Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted in 1948, states that ‘everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion.’ Why the Covid-19 vaccination is an exemption remains a mystery.
Moreover, the Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) outlined in Article 18 does not only include the right to hold philosophical and religious convictions but also the right to express them publicly or privately.
People should be able to exercise their rights and act on their beliefs without discrimination.

Know your Rights

Throughout the Covid-19 lockdown, companies across the globe attempted to impose vaccination rules on their employees. A report by NBC News cited companies that enforced mandatory vaccine policies. The Landau Solicitors found it to be unlawful.
Consequently, in addressing the issue of forced vaccination, LANDAU Solicitors maintained that employers and even the UK government do not have the right to compel employees to get a coronavirus jab without their consent. A forceful employee may file a claim in an employment tribunal.

In the same way, if an employer dismissed an employee for refusing to take the vaccine, an unfair dismissal claim could be filed within two years of the termination. The Bible describes this act as an oppression.
The Holy book says:
Leviticus 5: 17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the Lord your God.
In addition, there could also be a separate claim for discrimination. If somebody was, for example, justified in refusing the vaccination on religious grounds.

In a telephone interview with Chukwuma Ilogie (a businessman), he told Christian Voice, ‘I was the manager of my unit and I got fired for refusing the vaccine. Why will I be injected with something I have zero trust in? Other members of my team stayed in that Job due to fears of joblessness in the phase of lockdown uncertainties.’
Christian Voice also interviewed employees of Hi-Impact Television Nigeria, who spoke on conditions of anonymity. They expressed displeasure over how they were made to choose between the vaccine or stay at home.

Wake-up Call

Patrycja Wierowska’s refusal to go against her faith is a bugle call to Christians all over the world. Her decision to stand with Jesus Christ regardless of the storm is worthy of emulation.
Our Lord Jesus said:
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
As the roll out of more vaccines continues in the UK, Christains must remain vigilant and steadfast in prayers.

New Vaccine to be Administered in September

The UK on 15th August announced plans to roll out a dual vaccination programme known as a bivalent vaccine (Spikevax). The roll out will be on 5th September 2022. In a press release on the government’s website, the report claims that the new vaccine will tackle both the first Covid virus and the Omicron variant.

Similarly, the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) considers the evidence and approves the vaccine for use in adults. If the Spikevax vaccine proved to be immune to the original strain and Omicron variant, what then is the usefulness of the previous jabs administered and distributed to the populace?
Did the MHRA become oblivious of the unpredictable nature of the so-called virus?

Additionally, Chief Executive of the Medicine and Healthcare Regulatory Agency (MHRA)Dr. June Raine, said ‘what this vaccine gives us is a sharpened tool in our armoury to help protect us against this disease as the virus continues to evolve’.
This is the same Moderna vaccine in 2021 that was said to possess 90% potency in preventing Covid-19 infections, hospitalisation and death. Yet people died after getting the jab.

What becomes the fate of those to be administered the bivalent (Spikevak) Omicron vaccine this September? Will the story change or will these claims be proven false?

The Experiment

The current population of the United Kingdom is 68,659,069 as of 4th September 2022, based on Worldometer elaboration of the latest United Nations data.

Based on the above statistics, it is astonishing to see that an experiment carried out by Moderna on 436 people in the whole of the UK was enough to prove the efficacy of the ‘updated vaccine’.

Vaccine Effectiveness

According to the Daily Sceptic, more Americans have lost a family member to Covid-19 vaccine injuries than to ‘Covid virus’. Based on the results of five surveys now totalling over 2,500 respondents, 4.4% reported a member of their household had died from Covid-19. 8.9% said a loved one died from Covid vaccination.

Likewise, 8.6% of respondents reported injuries from the vaccination, 4.9% sought medical treatment, 3.2% got hospitalised, and 3.6% were unable to work after the vaccination.
Looking at the above report, It is not out of place to ask the UK government and other countries insisting this vaccination where we go from here?

Police Told: Let Preachers Preach

By

Stephen

-

2 August 2022

2

Police forces have been told not to arrest preachers under the new guidance from their governing body. All officers in England and Wales will be trained to the new standard from the College of Policing from April 2023 according to a statement published on the College of Policing website.

The College of Policing CEO, chief constable Andy Marsh, said ‘Like so many areas of life, crime and the demands policing faces have changed radically. The training we provide officers needs to reflect this. We have listened to policing and the public to make sure the training helps officers tackle the core issues faced on the street. One of the issues includes traditional crimes such as burglary. But will deal with more emerging crime types like fraud and online crime’.

New guidelines

The guidelines now state that:

1 Non-crime hate incidents should not be recorded where they are trivial, irrational, or if there is no basis to conclude that an incident was motivated by hostility,
2 Individuals who are commenting in a legitimate debate. For example, political or social issues should not be stigmatised because someone is offended,
3 If a record is made, it must be done in the least intrusive way possible. For example, it may not be necessary to record the name of an individual or the location of an incident.

The updates seek to redress the balance between freedom of speech and ‘protecting vulnerable members of the public’, according to the statement.

Preaching the Gospel is commanded

The European Convention on Human Rights guarantees the rights to freedom of religious belief which is seen in (Article 9) freedom of expression. This includes freedom of speech (Article 10).

However, these rights only attest to Biblical command to Christians to preach the gospel. We find this all through the Gospels and Epistles. In the words of the Lord Jesus himself: Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

The example of the early church shows how seriously the Apostles took their duty to preach: Acts 4:20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. (More Bible Read Points below.)

The exercise of their God-given right by Christians and the persecution they have faced from officers of the law is a clear threat to our freedom of speech.

Arrested during Lockdown

On April 10, 2020, Metropolitan Police arrested pastor Joshua Sutcliffe for preaching the gospel during ‘Lockdown’. The police charged Pastor Sutcliffe, but London Magistrates Court cleared him of all charges. Pastor Joshua was preaching the Gospel and handing out leaflets in Camden, North London. According to CBN News, ‘Officers told him that being outdoors was a violation of the lockdown orders’.

The court judgment stated, ‘We find that the defendant was outside and that he had a reasonable excuse as he was travelling to his place of work, as a worship leader. Their gathering was limited in duration, and they were entitled to gather for street evangelising.’ The court found that the law permitted gathering and street evangelism during the lockdown, limited only in time duration.

After Pastor Sutcliffe’s release, He said ‘At one point, I was surrounded by four police officers. It was very intimidating. They treated me like a second-class citizen. I am a Christian minister of the Gospel, which not so long ago was a treasured and respected vocation in the UK’. His statement buttresses the age-long tradition of street preaching in the UK.

Preaching in the Open Air

Police violently arrest Pastor John Sherwood

On 23rd April 2021, CBN News reported that Pastor John Sherwood was arrested while preaching in an open air in Uxbridge, West London. He was accused of a criminal act for preaching what the word of God teaches about marriage.

Pastor John cited Genesis 1:27. He said: ‘God’s design in creating mankind was to set human beings in families’. He added that these families should be headed by a father and a mother, not by two fathers or by two mothers. ‘The distinction within mankind of just two genders, male and female, made in the image of God, constitutes the essence of God’s created order’, he added. It appears some bystanders called the police because they felt the preacher’s sermon was ‘offensive’. Under the new guidelines, the police should explain to those complaining that they will not arrest such a preacher but protect his freedom of speech.

Pastor Sherwood was acquitted by Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court on 7th April 2022. He was cleared of all charges of making ‘homophobic statements termed as offensive and discriminatory’ according to News Week.

Pastor’s arrest and ill-treatment were carried out as if he was a violent criminal as this YouTube clip reveals.

While Pastor Sherwood was being dragged away, a lady in the crowd can be heard heard saying, ‘it’s a Christian country, let him speak.’ Pastor Peter Simpson, who was preaching alongside pastor Sherwood, noted that others in the crowd had accused him of ‘hate speech’ as well. Christian Post report.

Michael Overd

Similarly, in July 2016 we reported that Michael Overd was arrested in Broadmead Shopping Center in Bristol. He and his fellow preacher, Mike Stockwell, were accused of ‘religious aggravated public order offence’ in February 2017. The pair were convicted in what we described as a biased magistrates court, and were duly acquitted on appeal to the Crown Court.

Mr. Overd was also arrested for preaching the gospel in Taunton, Somerset. The BBC reported that during his preaching he stated, ‘Even these dear men caught in homosexuality, if they ask God for forgiveness of sin, they will be forgiven. God loves them that much.’ The two men concerned subsequently made an official complaint to the police. Mr. Overd was charged under Section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986 for words which allegedly caused harassment, alarm or distress.

Defended by barrister Paul Diamond, Michael Overd was acquitted. The magistrates found that he did not intend to cause harassment, alarm or distress contrary to Section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986.

Arrest at Cardiff Mardi Gras

Stephen Green outside Cardiff Magistrates Court after the case against him was dropped.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, was arrested by South Wales Police for distributing gospel leaflets at a homosexual event in Cardiff in 2006. He was giving out the leaflets out side the ‘Mardi Gras’ event when a police Inspector from the ‘Minorities Support Unit’ demanded he stop. The policeman arrested Mr Green when he immediately handed a leaflet to the next passer-by. Here is our report.

Mr. Green was held in a cell in Cardiff Police for four hours before being charged under the Public Order Act 1986. He was released after a brief pre-trial hearing. The Public Prosecutor admitted there were human rights issues but arrest, detention and charge were a violation of his right to freedom of expression.

The leaflet Stephen Green was giving out maintained that marriage could only exist between a man and woman. It cited Biblical passages condemning the act of homosexuality but also spoke of forgiveness and healing from ungodly desires. That was too much for the Mardi Gras organisers and the Police Minorities Support Unit. Mr Green afterwards sued South Wales Police for unlawful arrest, wrongful detentiuon and malicious prosecution and won. Even the homosexual Pink News website reported that he said: “I thank God for the honour of being locked up for sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Let Preachers Preach!

On 17th July 2022, a Nigerian preacher was arrested and detained in London for preaching the gospel. In a video which went viral on Instagram, he can be heard telling the police that they were harassing him and that he had done nothing wrong. He declined to provide his name and address when prompted, stating that he would report the incident because they had only arrested him for speaking about Jesus.

Charges, arrests for breaching public order and allegations of hate speech leveled against Christian preachers have arisen because the Bible’s standards of holiness and its statement of God’s institution of marriage are so challenging. Complaining homosexuals consider such standards so offensive no-one should voice them.

Furthermore, the Bible states that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the only way to find salvation. Muslims contend that ‘Allah’ is God and that it is blasphemous to say that Jesus is the Son of God. So Muslims have also called for preachers to be arrested, although not as frequently as have homosexuals.

The UK’s elite is of course firmly in favour of same-sex sexual rights. We see that as at odds with the foundation of our nation, which was established on the principles and values of Christianity.

Redmond-Bate case

Sir Stephen Sedley - 'Freedom of speech to say the inoffensive is not worth having — Sir Stephen Sedley – ‘Freedom of speech to say the inoffensive is not worth having

Christian Voice has constantly defended the right of Christian preachers to preach. We were greatly encouraged by the case of Redmond-Bate vs the Director of Public Prosecutions. One PC Tennant arrested Alison Redmond-Bate when she refused to stop preaching on the steps of Wakefield Cathedral in October 1997.

Alison Redmond-Bate was convicted by magistrates of obstructing the police officer in the execution of his duty. Her conviction was upheld by the Crown Court. The landmark case eventually reached Lord Justice Sedley and Mr. Justice Collins in the Court of Appeal in June 1999. Sedley LJ wrote the judgement in which he set aside the conviction. The summary is HERE on Swarb. The whole judgment is well worth a read here on the Oxford University Press website.

In his judgment, Lord Justice Sedley said: ‘Freedom of speech means nothing unless it includes the freedom to be irritating, contentious, heretical, and provocative provided it did not tend to provoke violence. Freedom only to speak inoffensively is not worth having.’

He went on: ‘There was no reasonable inference available in this case to the police officer that the preacher, preaching about morality, was about to cause a breach of public peace. … The constable was not acting in the execution of his duty when he required the women to stop preaching, and the appellant was therefore not guilty of obstructing him in the execution of his duty when she refused to comply.’

The law of the land

That acquittal established the law of the land in England and Wales. As a result, every Christian preacher arrested and charged under the Public Order Act 1986, properly represented in Court, has been either acquitted or the charges have been dropped. But that has not stopped the police continuing to harass preachers. It has taken over twenty years for the police to catch up.

Just a day ago, the Daily Telegraph reported on Stephen Watson, Greater Manchester chief constable, telling his officers to told to stop wasting time on Twitter disputes ‘simply because someone is offended.’ They had been ‘overzealous’ in recording trivial online spats, he said.

Donna Jones, Hampshire's Police and Crime Commissioner — Donna Jones, Hampshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner

And from the Evening Standard we learnt that Hampshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner Donna Jones criticised her own force for sending police officers on two occasions to question and then arrest a man for an alleged offensive social media post.

The new guidance from the College of Policing aiming to put an end to arresting preachers is a welcome development. However, how much time will it take to filter down through Chief Constables to the rank and file? Will the new policy make any changes to the arrest mentality of police on patrol?

We need to pray that the Police will observe legal precedents and protect, not abuse, preachers who exercise their freedom of speech according to the newly revised Policing Policy codes.
