Apart from this blog I am active on Facebook. I manage two groups:
*Theology and social justice
*Social Justice.
I have a Facebook page entitled: Radical, Liberal, Progressive and Deconstructivist Theology
One comment I receive often is that I am an 'armchair warrior'. Well, I am not anonymous and at my age there are physical limitations on activity.
Over many years I was active in the voluntary sector: as a volunteer, consultant or employee. I won't bore you, or attempt to preen, by listing my activities, but I will quote this e-mail sent to me by Mr Roy Bullock, a former Leader of Tunbridge Wells Borough Council:
'Your announcement was greeted with absolute silence. Can I for one mourn your severing of all the links to the Voluntary sector. I have known you for a long time and you were always involved in one or another charity, or Community Interest Company. Whatever wheeze successive Governments came up with to try and transfer more functions from government to the voluntary sector, you were always there trying to milk as much funding as possible from the government to better the organisation you supported. John to me you are the best example of being a localist I have ever known and you will be missed. Well done though good and faithful servant of the people.'
