The Archbishop of Canterbury dramatically resigned today admitting he feels 'shame' over the way victims of the Church's most prolific child abuser were let down.

Justin Welby said he was quitting after a damning report found his failure to act meant that 'abhorrent' serial abuser John Smyth was never brought to justice.
Dr Welby had initially tried to cling on, but was effectively forced to fall on his sword after senior colleagues joined criticism and more than 12,000 people signed a petition. Keir Starmer had also pointedly refused to back him. Mail.
Blogger: it is time for Christians in the UK who attend the CofE to exit en bloc. After all, so many of the actual Christian parts of this once great Church have already been consigned to the bin under Welby!
Blogger: please pray for Welby that he returns to a saving, Biblical faith.
