Opinion: Welby must ditch the evangelism

Comment

You're wrong. The Church of England is by law established, so the people - all of the people (even homosexuals) - are its people. So, actually, in this sense (and this is axiomatic),the Church of England must represent everybody. This, presumably, is why someone decided it might be defensible to let Durham keep his free seat in the Lords. No-one (I know) is saying that means he can't have views, just that given his exalted position, we're entitled to expect them to be informed, nuanced. We live in hope more than expectation.
