Bishops Oppose War Yet Vote With Government Critique
The article argues bishops in the House of Lords largely supported the government’s Afghan war policy. It notes only eight of twenty six bishops attended and one voted against, with seventeen supporting the war or related measures. It criticizes church influence in politics and warns of expanding bishoprics and parliamentary power.
