Displaying a level of intolerance that might make Archbishop Akinola blush, a lay member of the General Synod of the Church England has said “There are enough mosques for Muslims in this country, they don’t need any more.” The Telegraph describes Mrs. Alison Ruoff as a conservative evangelical. She also sits on the Council for the Bishop of London. Spokespersons for the Diocese of London and for Church of England say the remarks are her own and do not represent the church.
