Mordaunt calls on Church of England to allow same-sex marriages

The leader of the House of Commons has urged Church of England bishops to back same-sex marriage in critical talks this week, saying the church’s current stance causes “pain and trauma” to LGBTQ+ people.

Penny Mordaunt, the Conservative MP for Portsmouth who chairs the privy council, has written to her local bishop saying: “I hope you will back reform, allowing parishes and clergy to conduct weddings for same-sex couples or, at a minimum, enable authorised blessings.”

The bishops have an all-day meeting on Tuesday at which they will decide on a recommended outcome to be put before the C of E’s parliament, the General Synod, which meets next month.

I admit I wasn't really paying attention, but I had the impression the C of E was already good with it.
I know the Episcopalians have been for a while.
