Campaign to get Christians involved in politics

by Antony Bushfield

Show Up is the first campaign of its kind and is supported by a wide range of Christian organisations and church networks.

It was created amid growing disillusionment that many voters feel towards politics in the UK.

The initative is led by Christians in Politics and co-chair Andy Flannagan told Premier it would "encourage Christians to move from commentary to participation".

"Voting may just be the start of our decision-making. By 2020, we could be the people answering questions at hustings rather than just asking them," he said.

Blogs, articles, videos and interviews will all feature on the campaign's website.

Churches across the UK are also expected to talk about politics on 'Show Up Sunday' on 25 January.

Public policy officer at the Evangelical Alliance, Amelia Abplanalp, said: "We are thrilled that so many organisations also recognise how vitally important it is for voters to participate in the election and beyond. We are committed to working together to get this message out to the Christian community."
