On 15 June 1215, King John signed the Magna Carta, ensuring the freedom of the Church and the liberties of the barons, and also making himself equally subject to the law. The Magna Carta is one of the most celebrated and influential documents in history and the foundation of Western democracy. This year we celebrate its 800th anniversary, but how real are the liberties it sets out today? Freedom of speech - only where it supports the new dogma. Freedom of conscience - only so long as it doesn’t infringe countervailing values. Freedom of belief - only in private and behind closed doors. The truth is that Christians are being increasingly marginalised and gagged! Faith is being redefined. Christians are invited to make plans to join a Freedom of Speech rally on Monday 15 June at Parliament Square, Westminster between 11am and 4pm to hear speakers, music and much more.
