One wonders what Paul Flowers, Methodist minister and less-than-satisfactory Chairman of the Co-Op Bank thinks of fellow clergy on his circuit toking-up on Class A drugs (or, for that matter, financial sector chiefs who almost exclusively escaped any form of censure – no matter how insipid – for their financial incontinence).
All I can assume is that it is less judgmental than Tom Butler, the previous Anglican Bishop of Southwark was towards sozzled junior clergy in his diocese.
Otherwise, he is going to have some explaining to do.
