It turns out that June is the cruellest month: for Theresa May and her party, for pollsters and pundits, and also for Christians in politics. Last night we lost some outstanding examples of Christians in public life. The Conservatives’ David Burrowes, an Evangelical who opposed his party on gay marriage and campaigned for refugees and the homeless, lost his seat. So did Labour’s Rob Flello, a Catholic convert who once said: “I could no more leave my faith at the door of the House of Commons than I could my name or my gender or my arms and legs.”
