16. The Church's official policy
only tells people how to vote to the extent of condemming the BNP. However, the official policy of the Church is to encourage people to get out and vote, it's just that with the exception of discouraging the BNP the Church does not tell you who to vote for.

That's a policy that is 100% OK with me. The only thing we really need to do at election time is encourage people to vote, and maybe for Churches to organize public debates between local candidates open to all.

But as for the Church endorsing a particular party, that would be a bad idea without doubt.
