Dissident Anglicans leave Church of England

Around 600 Anglicans are officially leaving the Church of England and will enrol as candidates for a new part of the Roman Catholic Church.

The traditionalists, who oppose the Church of England's decision to ordain women as bishops, are expected to complete their conversion at Easter.

One of them, the Father Ed Tomlinson, has stood down as parish priest in Tunbridge Wells.

He says he has been left with no choice.
