So much for “Defender of the Faith” ...he pisses on that!

Queen and the Church

The Sovereign holds the title ‘Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England’.

There are many examples of the relationship between the established Church and the State.

Archbishops and bishops are appointed by The Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister, who considers the names selected by a Church Commission. They take an oath of allegiance to The Queen on appointment and may not resign without Royal authority.

The connection between Church and State is also symbolised by the fact that the ‘Lords Spiritual’ (consisting of the Archbishops of Canterbury and York and 24 diocesan bishops) sit in the House of Lords. Parish priests also take an oath of allegiance to The Queen.

I think he recently requested that his title be changed to "Defender of the Faiths" Plural
