The project is set up by Resound Worship, a group of British worship songwriters who want to equip the local church with lyrics that talk about caring for the planet.

Joel Payne, a songwriter and co-ordinator of Resound Worship, told Premier why they want to do it: “You only have to switch on the news these days for ten minutes to realise there’s a big crisis in our world in terms of the environment and as a group of songwriters we’re always looking at what we sing in church – the kind of language, the kind of themes and so on because they reflect quite a lot what’s important to us – and we’ve been really aware that we don’t have a lot to say in worship language, especially contemporary worship language in church, so we thought we’d better get onto it and try to write a collection of new songs which cover these kind of themes.”

Anyone can submit a song idea for £5 (maximum two songs) by Friday 18th October, by filling out an online form with the song title, lyrics, chord chart or mp3 file, or a note saying that the lyrics are to the tune of a traditional hymn.

Advice on the website guides entrants to make it sound like it could seamlessly be used in a church service and gives some suggestions of places in the Bible to go to for ideas, such as Psalm 104, Genesis 2:15 and Ezekiel 34:18, about enjoying creation without ruining it.

Mr Payne added that there may be…

The 35-year-old, who worked in commercial property law before her election to parliament in 2017, was jailed for perverting the course of justice last year by claiming someone else was driving her car.

A number of allegations were found proven by a misconduct tribunal on Tuesday, meaning she can no longer practise as a regulated solicitor.

Edward Nally, chairman of a three-member panel at the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal in central London, said: “As a parliamentarian makes the law so a solicitor must uphold the law and rule of law, and sadly in this case Ms Onasanya has failed in those duties.

“We must strike off Ms Onasanya from the roll of solicitors.”

The tribunal found she acted dishonestly, failed to act with integrity and failed to behave in a way that maintains the trust the public places in her.

Mr Nally went on: “That conviction we are aware has led to disastrous consequences for Ms Onasanya both personally and professionally.

“As a solicitor there are professional consequences that follow from a proven act of dishonesty that has been found by a jury after trial.”

The University of Hertfordshire graduate was also ordered to pay £6,562 to cover the costs of the prosecution by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).

The SRA had originally applied for £22,762 after saying the case took 40 hours of preparation, but Mr Nally reduced it after saying he…

The shootings in Texas and Ohio over the weekend, killing 31 people and injuring many more, took place within 24 hours and took the number of mass shootings in America to 251 this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive.

That is more shootings than we have had days in 2019.

President Trump has blamed the latest mass shootings on video games, mental illness and social media.

The US president’s urging politicians to work together on tougher gun laws, but has not yet announced any proposals.

He wants mass-killers to be put to death, and changes to mental health laws to identify people who may commit acts of violence.

After the shootings, the president called for the nation to “condemn racism, bigotry and white supremacy” and labelled the weekend’s attacks as “evil”.

Prior to beginning his rampage, the Texas gunman posted an online manifesto ranting against immigrants and making other racist remarks.

Bishop Mark Seitz of El Paso, Texas said it was “appropriate” for President Donald Trump to call out the white supremacy that motivated the Texas shooting, but said the president also has questions to answer.

Bishop Mark said that the president should “examine himself and the kind of rhetoric that contributes to the hatred of a whole group of people.”

Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller in San Antonio also asked the President to start listening and called for greater gun…
