Labour's policies on human rights have become a threat to freedom, the Archbishop of York said yesterday.
Dr John Sentamu suggested that the Government was ' sacrificing liberty in favour of an abused form of equality'.
The Archbishop said human rights did not work without a moral foundation, yet morality had been replaced by consumerism.
John Sentamu: 'Our Government is in danger of sacrificing liberty in favour of an abused form of equality based of diktat and bureaucracy'.
He again warned against the growth of 'diktat and bureaucracy' which he said interfered with personal beliefs.
Dr Sentamu's broadside follows last week's powerful condemnation of Britain's 'broken' society by Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester.
He argued that Christianity was the keystone of dignity, equality and freedom and without it society would collapse.
