Church in Wales reject women bishops
The Western Mail reports that senior clerics with the Church in Wales have rejected a controversial Bill which would have allowed women to be ordained as bishops.
The 140-strong Governing Body narrowly rejected the Bill which would have seen the creation of female bishops in the principality for the first time.
A vote saw the Bill defeated by just three after a day of heated debate on the subject.
As I was saying only yesterday, which century are we living in again?
