Bleeding for Jesus by Andrew Graystone Fully revised and updated Published 30 November 2025 Darton, Longman and Todd https://tinyurl.com/Bleeding4Jesus Images and author interviews: andrew.graystone1@btinternet.com I can't recommend this book highly enough. It's painful, but really important to read. An incredibly forensic work where no stone is left unturned. Jeremy Vine, BBC Radio 2 Andrew has exposed an abuse scandal of such horrifying scale that it has shaken the Church of England to its very foundations. His painstaking research and the trust accorded to him by victims and survivors means there is no greater authority on what went wrong at the heart of the Christian establishment, and the reckoning that now needs to follow. A must-read for anyone with a conscience and a desire for justice. Cathy Newman, Channel 4 News By day the dashing barrister and moral crusader John Smyth battled for Christian values at the Old Bailey. In the evenings he retreated to his home in Winchester, where he groomed young men from the highest echelons of British society, and flogged them for his own sexual pleasure until they bled. Smyth met many of his victims through the elite Christian cult of Iwerne camps. When his grotesque practices became known to leaders in the Church, he was spirited out of the UK to Zimbabwe, where for decades he continued to abuse much younger children. So began a conspiracy of cover up that lasted for thirty years. Then in 2017 the revelations about John Smyth and the Iwerne camps network pitched the Church of England into chaos. The wealthiest and most powerful grouping in the Church of England was at the heart of its biggest abuse crisis. Eventually, in an unprecedented step, Archbishop Justin Welby, who had known John Smyth for decades, was forced to resign over the affair. In this revised and expanded edition of Bleeding for Jesus, Andrew Graystone tells the story of how he and others brought the story of John Smyth into the light, and the toxic legacy of the Church of England's failure to face the truth. He reveals: • The wealthy Christians who sustained Smyth's abuse for decades. • The powerful men who led the evangelical movement, whilst hiding their own abuse. • The chaotic Church of England review that was held up for almost five years. • The police failures that allowed Smyth to go on abusing children until his death. • The struggle for justice and healing for victims in a Church that didn't want to know. • How the scandal led to the unprecedented fall of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Andrew Graystone is a campaigning journalist who broke the story of John Smyth's abuse and cover up. He continues to advocate for victims of abuse in the Church of England. The publication coincides with the broadcast by Channel 4 of a documentary series on the events in the book by BAFTA-winning director Benedict Sanderson for Passion Pictures.

Greg Brady & the panel of: Stephanie Smyth, Toronto—St. Paul MPP Brad Bradford, Toronto city councillor for Beaches - East York Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate Discuss: 1 - Ontario proposes to rebate HST for some first-time homebuyers: Not perfect but it's a start, should the rebate apply to all new primary residence purchases and not just first time homebuyers? Should homes over $1.5 million also qualify for the full rebate? 2 - Clearly still a ton of work to do regarding the TTC being efficient. But more people in the city means more cars on the road (people back to work as well) and congestion will be significant. Does this have an easy answer? 3 -Burlington man issued bylaw warning for Halloween decorations: fair or foul? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brigitte Macron, wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, has accused ten people of posting malicious comments about her, claiming she was a born a man, something Macron says is completely untrue. Her case is in court in France today and, if found guilty, the eight men and two women standing trial could face up to two years in prison. Sophie Pedder, Paris Bureau Chief at The Economist and Sarah Ditum, columnist at The Times, explain the significance of the trial.A study in Sweden has found that some adults who have had a diagnosis of autism or ADHD as children would like to be considered for a de-diagnosis due to stigma and sometimes restrictions associated with the condition. Nuala McGovern talks to Dame Uta Frith, Emeritus Professor of Cognitive Development at University College London, and psychologist Sebastian Lundström, from the University of Gothenberg, who is one of the study's researchers.What if all your dreams come true and you still find yourself a bit grumpy? That's the brilliantly blunt question at the heart of Laura Smyth's stand-up tour, Born Aggy. Laura's journey into comedy wasn't exactly textbook. She left behind a career in teaching, was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer that same year and - just two weeks after finishing treatment - was on stage in Live at the Apollo. She joins Nuala in the studio. The safety of some manicures has been called into question after the EU banned the use of TPO, a key ingredient in many gel polishes, due to fertility risks in animal trials. Melissa Wright tells us about producing her own line of gel nail products that don't contain TPOs and Dr Naila Dinani, Consultant Dermatologist at the Royal United Hospital in Bath, explains the risks.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Simon Richardson

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

A good start to the season has become just an OK as defeat against QPR means City only added another 5 points from the 5 games between the two international breaks.A half time advantage was allowed to slip in the second period and the referee played his part by missing a clear push on McCrorie by Smyth as he headed in for the winner and then in the dying seconds a two handed push in the QPR box on Borges which, unless you're us, would normally see a spot kick given even though it wasn't denying a goalscoring opportunity.DaveP debates the action with Paul Hunt & Dave Tovey as well as assessing City's chances in a tough run after the break with little hope of having any of the injured first teamers back and ready for action.

Greg Brady & the panel of: Stephanie Smyth, Toronto—St. Paul MPP Brad Bradford, Toronto city councillor for Beaches - East York Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate Discuss: 1 - Temporary hotel funding ends - feds had spent at least $1.2B on it - cities now under pressure, Toronto amongst them, and yet no ask for a re-frame or re-think about asylum qualifications or fixing the system from Mayor Chow - just an ask for $. How do you see this? She's fine to ask for it - it only makes the issues grow, does it not? 2 - Two terrible scooter accidents in GTA involving 12 and 10 year olds. TERRIBLE to hear of, yet not sure lack of legislation impacts this. I was pleased to see a bunch of tickets handed out in Toronto for illegal use of them. Does any deterrent work to prevent this, besides us agreeing 10 and 12 is way too young to be anywhere near heavy traffic with these? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
