Point of order - John Arlott was a Liberal candidate and a fervent anti-racism campaigner.

Seconded. My favourite story about Arlott relates to when he found himself being required to fill out an immigration form on a plane travelling to Johannesburg during the apartheid years. In response to a question enquiring about the passenger's " race", Arlott simply wrote "human".

It was part of a local festival, including a lot of dressing up. I'm yet to be convinced that they were not taking the piss.

When you’ve been fired from an outfit in the Murdoch remainder bin for being too big of an arsehole, where next do you go?

No, BBC. They aren't turning to christianity. They've just discovered a new way to express their islamophobia.

I'd never even heard of them...

I remember the rush to convert to Catholicism when women priests were allowed in the Anglican church by some high profile individuals at the time - looks like they had a solution in their midst all along.

Well, if anyone wants to learn about them: https://confessinganglican.church/what-is/

Edit: what a surprise, they're based in Tennessee.

The bishop himself.

I'm just face-palming and reminding myself of that Harry Dean Stanton line;

"You a Christian? Don't want no Christians in my car!"

(from the film "Repo Man", m'Lud.)

Few things make me shudder, but this does.
