Trump is accelerating his revenge campaign. I'm on his enemies list. And I'm not afraid. In fact, I plan to keep defying his petulant, wannabe-dictator tantrums. Here's how:

We need to empty diocesan HQs. They’ve grown like Topsy in the last 50 years. No other Anglican Provinces have staffing like this; simply unnecessary, expensive and detached from parish ministry. Bishops managed for almost 2000 years without diocesan HQs. They are expendable.

Polly Toynbee quite rightly puts the influence of Paul Marshall in the spotlight. The next ++ Canterbury should take note. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Apparently telling a loved one that they are loved and precious and you don’t want them to commit suicide is now “coercion”. This is Orwellian darkness. Up is down, black is white, goodness is evil. What a wicked thing this bill is.
