Christian Voice (UK)
Christian Voice (CV) is a fundamentalist Christian advocacy group based in the United Kingdom. Its stated objective is "to uphold Christianity as the Faith of the United Kingdom, to be a voice for Biblical values in law and public policy, and to defend and support traditional family life." It is independent of religious, denominational, or political parties.
CV is led by Stephen Green, with Lord Ashbourne as its patron. Green is the group's spokesperson, usually producing several press releases each month. According to Green, Christian Voice had in excess of 600 members in 2005.
The group has been criticised for its positions. The Rev. Dr. David Peel, leader of the United Reformed Church called Christian Voice "a disgrace" and described their "claim to represent Christians" in the UK as "absurd".
