Good to see the Church of England bishops taking a stand about the need for a “fresh moral vision of the kind of country we want to be.”
All too often our politicians seem to be descending in to a bitter and negative debate where they try and take pieces out of each other verbally, turning much of the nation off the whole idea of voting. Grievances are exploited as they seek to secure political gain and various groups are scapegoated as a diversion from tackling the real issues.
Our democracy has been hard won and we should be using our democratic freedoms to build a society that is fair, just and in which all can share and participate.
