January 16, 2026 • J.A. Franklin, T.J. Pelham, Daniel French

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!
