Church of England revs with a difference Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the biggest storiesin church and state. This time:

The UK rape gang scandal goes international as Elon Musk calls Keir Starmer an apologist for genocide and says that Jess Phillips should be in prison.
The Children's Welfare and Schools Bill looks set to enforce a woke curriculum across all schools and take the right to home educate away from parents.
Justin Welby steps down and Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell steps up to take charge of the CofE. His first move to combat managerial failure? More managerialism of course!
And we conduct our yearly review of the King's Christmas Speech: Politics? Theology? Controversy? There's a little bit of everything.
All that and a bit more as ever. Enjoy!
