In his message, Cardinal Nichols signposts resources that offer guidance on seven key topics of interest to Catholics. The information and guidance can be found on the Bishops’ Conference website and covers the following areas: Criminal Justice, Domestic Poverty, Family Life, Taxation, Education, Environment, International Relations, Human Rights, Peacebuilding, Life Issues, Migration.

“I ask you to look at these resources, explore them, become a bit more familiar with them so that when it comes to 4 July, you’ve got in your mind what you want to see the next government strive to achieve.

My view is that our next government should strive to create the circumstances in which families can flourish.

So please get ready to vote on 4 July.”
