Thanks for your support and the excellent comments you have added some of which will accompany the petition when we hand it in tomorrow. 

The Archbishop of York has released a strong statement. 

Radio 4 Sunday included interviews today (start 11.00 in )

“I support the call for help for the Inter Faith Network. Needed more than ever in these turbulent times” (Jo Waller)

“Interfaith work is needed more than ever. Please keep this funding in place” (Father Dominic) “Faith is an instrument of Peace. All the major Faiths teach peace. They must be encouraged to work together for this purpose” (Yvonne Coudrier)

“At this time especially it is very important that communication between different faith groups is encouraged” (Gillian Davis)

“The rise in hate crime and misunderstandings between religions makes it clear this is still very necessary” (Cathy Case)

“It is appalling that our Government is taking such discriminatory action. The Inter Faith network helps build understanding and tolerance, this action does the opposite” (Amanda Bevan)

“Interfaith dialogue and partnership matters to all of us in a religiously diverse society and IFN are the experts in the field. The government is engaging in mindless vandalism against an important national organization” (Tim Hutchings)

It's still worth signing!
