A strong church that teaches positive values in an age of uncertainty is of great value to our nation. Instead of leading it is simply becoming a reflection of our increasingly secular culture. Its desire to maintain political power and influence seems to be its driving force.

The Church of England has become irrelevant at best and should be cut adrift to find its own way in society without being propped up financially by the state.
