Anglican bishop speaks on John Smyth horror

The Bishop of Winchester Philip Mounstephen was interviewed on BBC 2’s Newsnight on Tuesday evening by Victoria Derbyshire.

He was talking about the John Smyth case and the resignation of Justin Welby.

The man spoke like a manager in an organisation, maybe like someone rolled out by the British Post Office to try to ‘explain’ the Horizon scandal.

It was word after word in bishopspeak. The man was most unconvincing, indeed, worrying.

Do organisations always win over the individual, irrespective of who’s right or wrong?
