The rightwing parties are now mainly parties forming coalitions between the rich and less educated, compared to the 1970s when rightwing parties were coalitions of the rich and the highly educated

If I were in charge of this (which would be a really bad idea) then I would try to move to a sort of lecture/tutorial model: use the Oak Academy stuff to introduce the ideas, perhaps replacing homework, and then reserve school time for going though questions and making sure that the ideas have been understood.
The problems are obvious though: it assumes that school children have time, IT resources, and motivation to watch and take in the lecture side without the supervision of a teacher trained in the highly skilled art of making sure everyone is awake. It would also give a government immense control over exactly what was being taught.
Hmm. So much for the talk of next year.
Weddings being postponed has been one of the (many) heartbreaking things of this pandemic. Our wedding took two years to plan (mainly so family overseas could all be here), so I can only imagine those who'd been planning theirs for long only to have it all torn up.
I think the Catholic Church lost all moral authority when the truth about its priests came out in the nineties.
Catholic Cathedral? Didn't think that possible for a double divorcee.
A wedding without guests is not the same thing.
Fair enough too. The increasing trend started (AFAIK) by dickhead American religious cultists of picketting weddings etc is despicable.
3rd time lucky I suppose. The triumph of hope over experience.
Maybe that's why they thought it would take until 2022.
When i got married on Black Friday many years ago we had a string quartet playing at the wedding breakfast (no seriously, we did) I wonder if Johnson had any violinists?
Will that lead to another boost in his personal and party raings?
It remains Catholic in the sense it views itself as part of the universal church of Christ in continuity with the early apostolic church but Protestant as shaped by the principles of the Reformation such as the Book of Common Prayer

The religious settlement that eventually emerged in the reign of Elizabeth gave the Church of England the distinctive identity that it still has today. It resulted in a Church that consciously retained a large amount of continuity with the Church of the Patristic and Medieval periods in terms of its use of the catholic creeds, its pattern of ministry, its buildings and aspects of its liturgy, but which also embodied Protestant insights in its theology and in the overall shape of its liturgical practice. The way that this is often expressed is by saying that the Church of England is both 'catholic and reformed.'
Boris just keeps iconclasming.
My (73 year-old) dad has physically shrunk massively since I last saw him. Insists his gaunt weight and muscle loss image is just old age and not something nasty. Not sure about that...
A: Yes.
IDS and Charlie Kennedy.
I knew you thought that you knew better than the Tories who was a Tory, and that even Tory Cabinet Secretaries were not real Tories to you - I had no idea you knew better than the Church what the Church is!
No Saints to.pray for wherever you look.
So our poll had a 12-point Tory lead, Survation had 10, YouGov had 14, Opinium have 6. Without debating who is right or wrong, I wonder which of these polls will get the most attention

The head of the Church of England is the Archbishop of Canterbury not the Pope and that has been the case since the 16th century
Edit: Which means it is probably the only major religion with a female head.

“Instead of getting married again, I'm going to find a woman I don't like and just give her a house.”
The Church of England's own website confirms that it is catholic.
But HYUFD knows better. 😂
Polls more favourable to Labour get more re-tweets:

Douglas Chapman, the MP for Dunfermline and West Fife, announced he had resigned as national treasurer of the party on Saturday evening. Mr Chapman took over in the role last year.
On Twitter, he said: "Despite having a resounding mandate from members to introduce more transparency into the party's finances, I have not received the support or financial information to carry out the fiduciary duties of National Treasurer.

Possibly thetre has been some security exemption (or public health - certainly think of the risk of reptile hordes of hacks swarming the nave and chancel, not to mention the balconies on the transept in the search for good camera angles).
On one hand, there are spookily poignant places like Ely Cathedral, where all the statues in the Lady Chapel were beheaded at the Reformation. But there are also C of E places where you can't move for icons, statues and whatnot.
You are not being clear. The C of E is a Catholic Church. Presumably you mean the Roman Catholic Church.
Rewriting history doesn't work when quotes are nested.
I'm a physics teacher: I'm used to things that are two contradictory things at the same time (both from the physics and the teaching tbf).
Theologically the Catholic Church does not recognise marriages not conducted in a Catholic church or cathedral
Which could be interpreted both ways, but I think most would interpret it as meaning catholic church churches.
Its rather nasty really.
So who is right about the Church of England? The Church of England, or HYUFD?
