Archbishop tells MPs: ‘Govt should not dictate to us’
The Church of England will not permit its buildings to be used for same-sex civil partnerships, according to the Archbishop of Canterbury.
And it will not allow itself to be dictated to by the Government.
Dr Rowan Williams made the comments at a recent private meeting with influential MPs.
His remarks come following the Coalition Government’s controversial plans to allow religious buildings to be used to conduct civil partnership ceremonies.
