Ep.60 - The Church's Hedge Fund Financier
Ben and Adam take a look at the influence of right-wing hedge fund manager and media mogul, Paul Marshall's quiet reshaping the Church of England through financial influence. They also spotlight Gresham Kirkby, the Anglican priest who proclaimed his undying support for anarchism to the end, making him our Saint of the Week.
The Surviving Church blog has some really interesting pieces on HTB, power and safeguarding. This series, by Hatty Calbus, was particularly helpful.

Jonny and Adam try to get to the bottom of it and along the way run into dogs painted to look like pandas, the resurrection of a long-lost biblical tree, and the first (and possibly only!) TORY Saint of the Week!
