As friends of the Edinburgh Interfaith Association, Bishop John co-signed their latest statement in response to the Southport atrocities and the events that followed.
“We must all strengthen our resolve to continue working together in safeguarding our communities. Therefore it is important that we fact check any social media reports before circulating them. We endeavour to follow the lead of the people of Southport, alongside other places having faced violence in recent days, and come together with mutual respect, united for the peace and well being of society as a whole.”
Please read the statement and find the signatories in full.
