@robert_lyman @thequentinletts I am not so sure that is the case. But clergy and structures have to become more agile to deliver on the ground. Laity are often well ahead and clergy often think it is all about them and can indeed be "limiting factors"!!!

@cityoflondon @citylordmayor @RachelReevesMP @ThePLSA @The_ABI_UK I fear this will all go to deeptech and pharma and nothing to really worthwhile business ideas in other sectors

@BBCBreaking He hasn't resigned as a priest, purely returned his permission to officiate which is common with elderly clergy who no longer want to take services. Typical sensational reporting; wholly inaccurate headline!

@FrDJW Well said! I refer to them as Compare Clergy! It completely undermines the holiness of the situation! The writers of the prayer books are usually brilliant liturgists and most of the time the prayers pretty much explain themselves anyway. They just need to be said sensitively!

@simon_hogan I'm shocked!!! Very unusual behaviour!!!!

@robert_lyman @April_1970s Only have one if you are really an off-road driver. They are not manoeuvrable enough for modern road situations and unstable. My Disco 4, however, has taken us the length of the country and across the muddiest and steepest country estates in comfort with lots of room for dogs/kit
