Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

As US nuclear weapons return to Britain, we re-affirm the commitment to nuclear disarmament rooted in our faith.

We join hundreds of groups in calling for measures to prevent nuclear war, and redirect military spending to peacekeeping, climate action, and meeting human needs.

We need to heed the promptings of love and truth in our hearts and speak up now. We believe that genocide is underway in Gaza.

We use this word with the aim of opening eyes, minds and hearts. We use it in the deep hope that the actions it describes will stop.
