I can recall being in Peru in 2007 when the furore erupted about racism within the Big Brother House. There were concerns that it could affect trade relations between Britain and India. Jade Goody who was a focal point for this controvery died on Mothers Day.It has been striking that her death has been marked by messages of sympathy from both Gordon Brown and David Cameron. There is an absolutely fascinating commentary on these events by John and Olive Drane which you can read here. Her life sums up many of the challenges and opportunities for the church in 2009.
