The findings of the 2014 British Social Attitudes on Religion have been released and it's bad news for the Established Church of England.
Religious affiliation:
No religion 50%
Church of England/Anglican 20%
Christian – no denomination 9%
Christian – specific denomination 6%
Roman Catholic 9%
Non-Christian 6%
56% of those who actually do affiliate with a religion, or were brought up in a religion, never attend religious services or meetings.
Yet still the privileged position of the Established Church continues, still the Monarch remains the "Defender of the Faith" and still the C of E gets automatic seats in the House of Lords.
20% of the population getting a free ride. What an amazing set up!
