It was extremely ill-advised for the clergy at GB who proposed and supported the amendment that was passed requiring the RB to 'reflect' on its handling of the Andrew John 'retirement'. Words like 'unchristian' were actually used to describe the actions of the RB trustees (and I only speak of volunteers here) who bravely acted to end the shambolic situation.
ReplyDeleteThey did not remove John from his post. They had no power to do so. They did, however, act in their fiduciary duty as trustees to say what they might do if he did not resign. Thankfully, John saw the writing on the wall and did the right thing eventually.
The body at fault in this debacle was the BENCH not the GB. It is they who should reflect -so it was dumbfounding to see Mary Stallard speak in favour of the amendment. Deflection and projection if I ever heard it.
Well done RB, you acted within the law of the land which trumps the Constitution of the Church in Wales every time, assuming it was ever violated in this case.
