A week after a review found that the Church of England concealed abuse of children by Bishop Peter Ball; his survivors are calling for changes in the Church.
They have written a letter asking for Lord George Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, to be criminally investigated.
Published in the Times, it reads: “Following the Gibb report on this case… three issues require urgent attention. First, the police must investigate whether Lord Carey of Clifton deliberately concealed evidence.
“If so, Lord Carey must forfeit his right to sit in the House of Lords. It is unacceptable that someone involved in concealing evidence of criminality should have a role in making laws for others”.
