Canterbury versus Rome

This from The Times today.

It is reporting on a meeting in Downing Street between Mrs May and some of those who voted against her last week.

“She was supremely relaxed,” one of the guests said. “We had an hour. It was an eclectic mix of people.” At one point the prime minister remarked that the difference between her and Mr Rees-Mogg was that she paid her allegiance to Canterbury as a member of the Church of England while his was to Rome as a Catholic. He replied: “Only in matters spiritual, prime minister.”
