Methodist Church calls for comment on same-sex marriage
BBC Radio Guernsey
The Methodist Church in Guernsey is welcoming comments on a bill to allow same-sex marriage in their chapels.
Guernsey passed legislation to allow same-sex marriage in 2017 but many in the Methodist Church believe it does not support teachings in their scripture.
It follows a groundbreaking report from the Church's Marriage and Relationships Task Group that called for such changes.
Quote Message: People who love each other are worshipping God. We do already have provisions - people who are in same-sex marriages can have their relationship blessed subsequently in church, but some people would like us to go further." from Reverend Howard Stringer Leader of the Methodist Church in Guernsey

Tamba Park fire 'probably caused by smoking materials'
BBC Radio Jersey
A large fire at Tamba Park in Jersey last week was "most probably" caused by "discarded smoking materials", firefighters say.
Plumes of smoke could be seen from as far away as Guernsey.
The fire service has said it has concluded its investigation.
The attraction's owner, Johnathan Ruff, had to respond to social media comments made about the blaze, assuring people that it had been an accident, and adding that he was not covered by insurance.
Tens of thousands of passengers have been told not to go to airports, with the airline cancelling some 1,700 flights due to the disruption.
The pilots' union Balpa said BA management's cost-cuts and "dumbing down" of the brand had eroded confidence in the airline.
But BA chief Alex Cruz said investment in the operator had never been so big.

Plans for UK administrator for lottery cash dropped
BBC Radio Jersey
The head of a Jersey charity has welcomed the news that plans to get a UK company to administer Channel Islands lottery funds have been dropped.
The minister responsible, Senator Lyndon Farnham, announced on Friday that he had listened to the outcry from local organisations and would now look to find a local organisation to do the job.
Mike Graham from the Bosdet Foundation said it was the best decision.
He said the islands should be able to organise a way to administer the money that was raised by the lottery and give it out to charities.
A deputy who has been critical of the one school on two-sites model is wishing the Education Committee luck in actioning its plans for the future of secondary education.
