[Mail Online] 6 Jul 2008--The Church of England today launched a plan for a new class of ‘superbishops’ to try to keep its rebel clergy within the fold.
The superbishops were the key to a rescue package to keep the CofE from breaking apart as its leaders move towards the consecration of the first women bishops.
Under the last-minute deal put forward to the Church’s parliament, the General Synod, superbishops would be given authority over traditionalist clergy and parishes which refuse to accept the leadership of a woman bishop.
