A reminder that this is the same man who has just spent the past week calling all the Jewish victims of his own horrific anti-semitic abuse liars

The disclaimer at the end is by far the best bit...

And the AbC will spent much more time being Primate of All England and bishop of that bit of Kent...

As to the new appointment, that is my suspicion as well. Not sure that I agree about the Anglican Communion, although I suspect that it'll quite soon end up with a primus or presiding bishop who is not the AbC.

Interesting... Do you think the whole 'instrument of unity' in the Communion aspect might preclude a woman?

Well, just so long as it's not a renaissance court... Still, I suppose if anyone knows Il Principe...

At least he has some talent for something... I have an awful sinking feeling that it might be Her Lordship of Newcastle whom I have known for ages and of whom I think very highly; but it's not a job I'd wish on my worst enemy...

Aww. Blush. Sorry, I hadn't forgotten about this at all, no, no...

Speaking as an historian with the properist of proper credentials, I completely deny the assertion that you are not a 'proper historian'... and in any case improper historians sound altogether more fun!

This is such tragic news for everyone in our field, but most especially for his friends. I am very sorry for your loss.
