“WE REALLY need to talk about bishops. The recent governance review of the Church of England got a mixed reception in the General Synod last month (News, 18 February). An amendment proposed by the Revd Sam Maginnis was carried, merely “thanking” the Governance Review Group for its work rather than “welcoming” it.”

“THE depth of anger expressed in recent responses to the so-called “Church Closers’ Charter” — the now infamous GS2222 — reflects a widening culture gap not only between diocese and parish, but also between urban and rural church life.”
