This is part of The Humanist’s monthly series highlighting openly nonreligious elected officials across the nation.

The Center for Freethought Equality’s advances have been groundbreaking. Prior to the 2016 election, there were only five state legislators and no members of Congress who publicly identified with our community; because of its efforts, today we have seventy-seven state legislators and a member of Congress, Jared Huffman (CA-2), who publicly identify with our community. It is critical that our community connect and engage with the elected officials who represent our community and our values—you can see a list of these elected officials here.

Labour minister left tongue-tied as Question Time’s Fiona Bruce | Politics | News

Squirming Sarah Jones was left tongue-tied as she struggled to name any benefits of Donald Trump returning to the White House. The Minister for Industry, appearing on BBC Question Time, was asked “can you not think of any benefits?” Ms Jones spoke generically about the UK’s relationship with the US, before finally admitting Mr Trump could help end the Middle East crisis. Supporters have argued the President-elect’s fearsome reputation could reign-in Vladimir Putin, Iran and North Korea. During a discussion about any benefits to the UK of a Trump Presidency, Ms Jones said: “The trade between our two countries is about £300billion a year. “If you look at inward investment coming into the UK, we had a big investment summit a few weeks ago, there were some big American firms that are investing in the UK. “Equally, some of our firms go and invest in America. So we have this very strong relationship when it comes to security, when it comes to intelligence sharing.” But Ms Bruce challenged the Labour politician, saying “none of that …

Five Die-Hard Springsteen Fans Rate Jeremy Allen White’s Bruce Springsteen Style

Published by skeptic

Facially it works, the bone structure, strong nose, hollow-(ish) cheekbones, similar framing of eyes although brown coloured lenses required and thickening of eyelashes. (Editor’s note: In later paparazzi photos from the set, White is seen wearing brown contacts—as requested.) The tousled hair with the leather jacket and the moody shot equals core Bruce. Any tricks he’s missed? He’s missing earrings! What does he need to do to nail Bruce? The singing…He needs to perfect the Bruce growl and match Bruce’s energy and charisma on stage. Off stage, he needs to catch his natural shyness and niceness. The single-mindedness to be great. What Bruce look would you like to see Jeremy Allen White wear? If he can smile like Bruce and look as lean in jeans and a grandad shirt, he will be 90 per cent of the way to nailing him. Tom Brooksby, has been playing Bruce in UK-based Springsteen tribute band Glory Days since 1996 What was your first impression of Jeremy Allen White’s Bruce? JAW looks great in this press shot.

The Question Time host asked the Shadow Secretary for International Development asked about Ms Abbott’s continued suspension. She said: “In terms of the question about Diane Abbott. Diane Abbott, you know, [is a] trailblazer for the Labour Party – longest-serving black woman MP.” Ms Bruce asked why it’s taken a year for Ms Abbott’s investigation to take place, still without an outcome: “How can that still be going on and she’s not admitted back into the Labour Party, when Natalie Elphicke’s admitted in and then she apologises?” The BBC veteran finished: “So does that not appear to be a double standard?” Responding, Ms Nandy said: “You’ve got to remember why we’ve got an independent disciplinary process. This is not the same as joining a party. This is about a disciplinary process. “Under our previous leader, he and his cheerleaders brought the Labour Party to the most shameful time in our history, where the Equality and Human Rights Commission opened an investigation into antisemitism in the Labour Party and found that we had become an antisemitic …

Fiona Bruce was met with silence when she asked BBC Question Time audience members if they believed Tory defector Natalie Elphicke would be an asset to Labour.
