With words more reminiscent of an Old Testament prophet rather than the Oxford academic that is the usual media presentation of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams made clear his concerns with the continuing attitude of the traders in the City of London.
Talking with Jeremy Paxman on BBC2’s Newsnight, Williams said, “There hasn’t been a feeling of closure about what happened last year. There hasn’t been what I would, as a Christian, call repentance,” he said. He continued, “I think that what we are looking at is the possibility of a society getting more and more dysfunctional if the levels of inequality that we have seen in the last couples of decades are not challenged.”
