Free speech storm embroils church after vicar sacked over ‘anti-woke’ YouTube channel

A church is embroiled in a free speech row after sacking a vicar who ran an anti-woke YouTube channel.

Breakaway Anglican denomination, the Free Church of England (FCE), dismissed the Rev Brett Murphy last month after ruling that the “nature and tone” of videos he posted online had brought the church “into disrepute”.

The FCE took issue with the vicar using the term “witch” to refer to female priests.
