Public services, grooming gangs and social cohesion

Church of England revs with a difference Tom Pelham and Jamie Franklin are back for 2026 talking about the big issues in church and state. This time:

• The King's Christmas Speech: How Christian (or not) was it?
• A large majority of Church of England worshippers would redirect funds from the Church if slavery reparations go ahead.
• And Rowan Williams says mass migration is good because of all the art.

All that and much more as ever. Please enjoy!
