It was extremely disappointing to see Sarah Mullally arguing in favour of decriminalising abortion in tonight’s debate.

💙 We were delighted to be joined by Bob Crompton’s family for the unveiling of a new memorial at the #Rovers legend’s resting place in Blackburn Old Cemetery. Club chaplain Ken Howles conducted a short service, before representatives from Blackburn Rovers and the 100 Club laid wreaths at the gravestone ledger. A big thank you to The Friends of Blackburn Old Cemetery and Stevensons Memorials for their support in the project, as part of the club’s 150th anniversary celebrations. 🔵⚪️

Tonight’s vote means there will be no legal deterrent against a woman inducing her own abortion right up to full-term for any reason, including sex-selective abortions. A civilised society does not permit abortion up to birth. Only 1% of the public support it. 3/


The Synod of the Northern Diocese met today at St George’s, Blackburn. Laity and clergy joined in person and via Zoom from across the North of England, the Isle of Man, and Scotland.
