So is the appointment of Stephen Cottrell as Archbishop of York checkmate – or merely check?
It is certainly a game changer for Anglican evangelicals. But does this put them in the unrecoverable position which many have been predicting for years – or still not quite yet?
The announcement of his appointment is certainly grim. When the liberal catholic trumpet that is the Church Times reports that the news is met with an ‘outpouring of celebration’ (yeah, right) you know things are bad.
