As a follow-up to something I mentioned a while back ['good grief', april 6th] I take great pleasure in sending some kudos the direction of the Venerable Chris Liley, Archdeacon of Lichfield Cathedral, who politely told the BNP to clear away off with themselves when a candidate tried to use his Cathedral for a photo-op. Sir, you are a legend.
Chris wrote about his own version of events for the Guardian's Comment is Free today [Thursday]. Of course, he's already getting a little backlash in the blogosphere - ["Had many same sex marriages in your cathedral recently?"] but on this occasion, sir, leave those to one side. You did a good thing for the right reasons, and for that we salute you.
