  • Religion Deeply Important says Tony Blair at Leadership Conference with Nicky Gumbel

    Posted on 15/05/2012
    Former prime minister Tony Blair has defended religion, warning that a world without faith would be one on a path to "tragedy and disaster". The ex-PM, who converted to Catholicism after he left office in 2007, said he believed that the sense of something "bigger and more important" than you was "deeply important" for the health of society. "For a long period of time, what people thought was that as society became more developed and as we became more prosperous, that faith would be relegated, that it would become a kind of relic of the past - what kind of

  • Sierra Leone : Good Religion & Good Governance by Tony Blair & Sheikh Abu Bakarr Conteh

    Posted on 27/04/2012
    The significance of World Malaria Day on 25th April is likely to be different if you live in London or Freetown. For those who live in Sierra Leone it will be a reminder again that malaria is the number one killer of young children. In the UK there may not even be the memory that in the Kent marshes malaria killed whole families in the 18th century.  It may not seem relevant. But it is. The names on gravestones in Kent, like the names of children buried in Sierra Leone, each represent a tragic waste of a life.

  • World Malaria Day 2012: A Critical Moment for Reversing Spread of Malaria

    Posted on 25/04/2012
      Charles Dickens' depiction of Magwitch grabbing Pip has stuck in my mind and, I suspect, in the mind of generations of scared school boys who watched or read "Great Expectations." The Kent churchyard, with its "lozenge shaped" tomb stones, in "marsh country down by the river," is now firmly on the literary tourist trail during the Dickens 200th anniversary.
