  Manchester, New Moston Congregation Charity Commission case.

  by freddo in

  we have had a week or so of occasional national news and certainly local news about this case in north west england.

  it is on the government charity website too.. is anyone able to furnish the forum with any information about how it is being perceived in the local community - especially the local jw's?.

  or anywhere else?.

  That is very interesting and why not I wonder? That is very strange not to be in the printed version.

  The Guardian did publish an article on the Charity Commission's investigation with the Manchester New Moston Congregation and here is the link to the article:

  Thank you so much Isambard Crater for providing the video link! Much appreciated! I was looking for this video yesterday on youtube without much success until I saw your post today so thank you again. So important that people know what shunning is like and how it breaks up families as the experiences were being related in the video. Very cruel policy indeed and as UnshackleTheChains rightly said hope many active witnesses will wake up and realize that this is unnecessary and unloving. Excellent presentation by Victoria Derbyshire and the former witnesses who were interviewed.

  My prayers and thoughts are with his family at this sad time. Extremely disturbing is that Devon in South West England is considered to be a very safe part of the UK.

  Man charged with his murder appears in court today Thursday 8 June 2017.

  Can Katie Kitten get up to 100% UK coverage with our help?

  by slimboyfat in

  very good idea for activism in the uk.

  they've already contacted over 60 congregations about not destroying evidence the government may require, which must be about 5% of congregations in the uk.

  getting near to 100% shouldn't be out of reach.
