A Church of England archdeacon is facing calls to resign amid a "woke" row over "anti-white" comments she made online

Nigel Farage has revealed that he no longer goes to church because the Church of England have ‘surrendered’ to the woke agenda.

Speaking on GB News, Nigel Farage said:

“I won't go to my local church; I won't go. I am christened and confirmed in the Church of England and are all my family on both sides have been Church of England.

“I used to believe in it. I used to attend - not every Sunday but regularly - during the year. I will not go. It is hopeless. They've given up, they've surrendered.

“And her name sums it up. I don't know her personally, but I'll have a bet she's upper middle class, completely detached from reality.

“On slavery can I remind everybody that today is the 217th anniversary of the passing of the Abolition of Slavery Act as it became, in parliament. It was pushed by a man called William Wilberforce, which then led us through the Royal Naval squadron to attempt to drive slavery out, right across the Atlantic, stopping other countries and doing so.

“When it comes to this issue. You’d think to listen to some of our lefties, that we are the only country that ever practiced it. No, far from it. Slavery persists to this day. We as a nation have done more to stop slavery than any other nation in the history of our earth.”
