Is Britain Still a Christian Country? Churches, Mosques & Free Speech Debate

Today Ian Collins asks Is Britain still a Christian country? After a series of controversies - from churches under threat and debates about religious identity to clashes over free speech on Britain’s streets - is the country changing in ways many people didn’t expect?

Missionary Bishop Ceirion Dewar and commentator Fahima Mohamed join the discussion as Reform vows to block churches from being converted into mosques, a church fire raises concerns about the future of historic places of worship, and police defend a Christian preacher’s right to speak in an area described as “a Muslim area”.

Then we turn to the battle over education and special needs funding. Commentator Caroline Farrow reacts to Labour’s plans to overhaul SEND support, with critics warning the reforms misunderstand what many children with autism and complex needs actually require - and whether mainstream schooling is always the right setting.

A debate on faith, identity, free speech and the direction Britain is heading.
