Bahram Dehqani-Tafti, only son of the first #Persian #Anglican bishop of #Iran, was murdered #OnThisDay 45 years ago. His sister, Bishop @Guli_FD, spoke recently about her brother's killing - and other reflections on the #persecution that #Christians in Iran have endured since the Islamic revolution of 1979 - as part of a @BBCRadio4 broadcast in the run up to #Easter. You can read more about what Bishop Guli had to say here 👇 🔗 articleeighteen.com/features/15907/ #Article18 #FoRBForAll #Place2Worship #Converts

I heartily welcome the PM's confirmation today that 'the Rwanda Policy is dead and buried'-I hope the needs of vulnerable people caught by the Illegal Migration Act will now be addressed, safe&legal routes opened up, international cooperation furthered and criminal gangs tackled.
