UK is a Christian country, says Education Secretary
The United Kingdom is a “Christian country” and has its institutions rooted in the “Judaeo-Christian tradition”, Education Secretary Damian Hinds has said.
Commenting specifically on the tradition of daily prayers in the House of Commons, Mr Hinds said they were appreciated regardless of the MPs’ religious beliefs.
However, his comments have sparked the ire of humanists who called on him to change his views.
