Church of England vicars with a difference as Tom Pelham, Jamie Franklin and Daniel French get together to discuss all the big stories:
- Lockdown Files reveal thousands of government WhatsApp messages sent at the height of Covid crisis and Matt Hancock does not come off well.
- Hancock squirms on Good Morning Britain as he attempts to excuse his rule-shattering behaviour because it was technically not illegal.
- Rev. Dr. Bernard Randall is unsuccessful in unfair dismissal case against Trent College Nottingham.
- Greta Thunberg protests against windfarm because it will disturb reindeer.
- CofE "spokesman" says Putin is wrong in his criticisms of Church.
All this, your email of the week taking Daniel to task for comments about Putin in last week's episode and much more as always!
