For such a non-religious country (particularly in comparison to the USA) it always seems odd that the UK still has an official state religion. I suspect that this is only because the Queen is officially head of the Church of England and it might cause a constitutional crisis of some sort if Parliament told her to stop being so. Of course this doesn’t stop the occasional enterprising MP from introducing a motion to “disestablish” the CofE. One such motion was submitted yesterday. By some useful quirk of the House of Commons filing system it ended up being motion #666.
