The Times reports that the cathedral has disbanded its choir because it ‘fails to meet the needs of a “mixed urban community”’.
I’d have thought the biggest barrier to meeting the needs of a mixed urban community is the cathedral’s insistence on adhering to Christianity. Maybe that’s next on their list of things to chop 😉
The new diversity fascism. Didn’t see that coming!!!!
If someone were to set up a fund to assist with the legal costs in challenging this act of cultural vandalism, then I for one would gladly contribute.
