Enjoying reading Chad Van Dixhoorn's commentary on the Westminster Confession of Faith, aptly titled “Confessing the Faith”. This is an excellent in-depth analysis of the classic/timeless 17th century doctrinal statement by which the Presbyterian Church is governed.

A marvellous account of the machinations behind the ‘Remain‘ and ‘Leave‘ campaigns for the referendum in staying in the EU and then of the infighting within the Conservative Party to choose a new leader following the resignation of David Cameron. It reads like a Shakespearean tragedy, and is utterly gripping.
