Of Nazis and Narnians - Irreverend Episode 117

Controversy this week as terrorist watchdog puts CS Lewis children's classic on its far right white nationalist blacklist. Also on the blacklist is Suella Braverman, whom popular BBC sports presenter and covert socialist Gary Lineker compared to the Nazis. North of the border, the ostensibly Muslim candidate for leadership in the SNP Humza Yousaf wants to make it legal to terminate babies up until the point of birth.
Church of England reverends Tom and Jamie discuss all these stories, give you a brief update on what life as a young vicar is like, do some quickfire Question the Revs and much more. All in this week's episode of Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs!
