An open letter to my MP (and yours) on assisted suicide
This new law would not be a mild change to the law, enabling a compassionate approach to a few suffering people who need it. This would be a fundamental change in society, written into law.

Fact checking abortion
In a world of darkness and lies it is time for us to bring truth and light on this issue.

Humza Yousaf's fall
A year ago, we suggested that Humza Yousaf would do well to survive after his unconvincing election as SNP leader and thus Scotland's First Minister. He hasn't.

Back to back tragedies in Australia give pause for thought
In all of this we are reminded that we all live in a broken world where there are broken minds, broken bodies, broken homes, broken hearts and broken societies. We can only pray for, and long for, healing.
