[Anglican Mainstream] 13 Nov 2007--Against the advice of Canon Theologian Andrew Knowles, the Chelmsford Diocesan Synod decided on Saturday 10th November not to vote on a motion from Braintree Deanery urging the bishops to uphold Lambeth Resolution 1.10.

A procedural motion to move on without voting was passed by 65 votes to 60 on a second count.

The same Synod saw a number of questions put to Bishop John Gladwin about his patronage of the campaign group Changing Attitude, and the effect this was having on the Diocese.
