Anaxios?

I do not understand the fuss about today's appearance at York Minster of that longstanding minor national treasure, the Reverend Paul Williamson.

There is a very long tradition of even entire congregations shouting "No" to new bishops, usually because the civil power had sought to impose someone politically unacceptable to the locality.

That was fairly common until quite recently in topical Greece, where it may well reappear in the coming months and years.

On which note.

  1. Paul Williamson would have been on Telegraph Blogs if it had been any good.
