Available for over a year

Some government policies may have effects which have "sinful elements", The Bishop of Truro, the Right Reverend Tim Thornton has said. Speaking to John Pienaar, Bishop Thornton said "focusing of resources in one place and not another can have sinful consequences". "Part of what I see happening down here in Cornwall is that some of the pressures local authorities are being put under lead to some very difficult decisions being made about where resources are allocated," he said. This clip is from Pienaar's Politics on Sunday 20 April.
