‘Campaigners imply that expressing traditional Christian beliefs on sexuality in pastoral conversations is, inherently, a form of conversion therapy’, religious leaders warn.

Keir Starmer’s parents reportedly named him after Keir Hardie, the radical Christian co-founder of the Labour Party. Unlike Hardie, the new UK prime minister belongs to the 37% of Brits who tick the ‘no religion’ box.

According to a survey, 42% of evangelicals planned to vote for Labour, which won a landslide victory. The EAUK “prays Psalm 72” for Keir Starmer, the next prime minister.

Evangelicals may be approaching a time when we are ostracised and where we need to have confidence in what we believe and what the Bible teaches because we will not receive endorsement for those beliefs from the world around us.
