VE day and the hope for peace
My mother described to me how she and her mother cried all day when Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain announced that Britain was again at war on 3 September 1939. World War I had been so terrible only 21 years earlier. The memory of that war and its impact for my grandmother, and more so my grandfather, was a continual trauma. They found it unbearable to think of having to endure yet more war. But, despite the many hardships, during those six years of 1939 to 1945 there emerged a determination to not repeat the mistakes of the past.

Funerals in a time of physical distancing
Quaker funerals often have a different feel to other Christian celebrations marking the end of a person's life. They take the same simple, still form as a Quaker meeting for worship and are open to anyone who wants to gather to remember someone who has died.

Where our witness is: an invitation to the QPSW Summer Series
We all have our coping methods in this strange time – locking ourselves in the bathroom for 5 minutes peace away from the children, taking up running to get outside and process stress, or allowing ourselves more screentime, as the telly becomes a more significant activity to look forward to. But we all need one thing to get through and that is community.

What is climate justice?
First written about over two decades ago and enshrined in the Bali principles of climate justice (PDF) in 2002, the term climate justice is increasingly used when we talk about climate change and the environment. But what does it mean?

It's time to Build Back Better for a safe and just future
Even as the Covid-19 lockdown rules are loosened, I am hearing many people say they believe things will never get 'back to normal'. Of course, we all crave a 'normal' where we can see our friends and family, and where key workers can do their jobs without fearing for their lives. But 'normal' was a state of affairs that was failing millions of people.

Examining Quaker privilege and commitment to an equal world
"The roots of racial prejudice lie deep within us, and in seeking a solution to the evil results of racial tensions we need to search our own hearts. Our belief in the significance of every individual in the sight of God and their need for an abundant life can guide us even when we shrink before the vastness of the problem." – London Yearly Meeting 1952

The UK must end indefinite immigration detention
Despite the welcome release of many detainees in response to the Covid-19 crisis, the UK's immigration detention system remains unfit for purpose. The UK remains the only country in Europe where detainees can be held indefinitely. This violates basic principles of justice and human rights while avoiding proper transparency and judicial oversight. Anyone with 'irregular status' can be detained – new arrivals, people with no papers or 'wrong passports', and overstayers. Tens of thousands of people are being locked up every year – without any idea of when they might be released.

The system isn't broken – it was built this way
Last weekend marked a turning point in British race relations. The controversial statue of Edward Colston was dumped in Bristol harbour, finally toppled at a Black Lives Matter demonstration. It was met with scorn from British newspapers, citing the age and expense of the statue as reasons for it to be reinstated, which reflects a deeper concern for property than for the oppression of black people in Britain.

Sunday 14 June is Tax Justice Sunday: a day when Christians are encouraged to come together to reflect on the role of tax in society, and to speak out for a fairer tax system. This year it comes as many in the churches and in wider society are calling for tax reform to be part of how we build back better from the Covid-19 pandemic.
