Presbyterian Safeguarding, Pope’s Beirut Visit, Homelessness

Everyday Ethics

Available for over a year

As more cases emerge, safeguarding expert Ian Elliot calls for a public enquiry into PCI. Audrey talks to journalist Angela Davison about the latest developments and also to retired Presbyterian minister Rev Tony Davidson about what needs to happen at the special general assembly. Pope Leo’s first overseas trip takes him to Lebanon where he met some of the victims of the Beirut port explosion and celebrated a mass for 150,000 Christians. Audrey speaks to Najat Aoun Saliba, a Maronite Christian and an MP in Lebanon. Homelessness figures in Northern Ireland have increased exponentially over the last decade. Mark Baillie from Homelessness Connect tells Audrey why. And could a row over military service for Ultra-Orthodox Jews bring down Benjamin Netanyahu’s government?
