Letter: Established fiction
Your support helps us to tell the story
My recent work focusing on Latino voters in Arizona has shown me how crucial independent journalism is in giving voice to underrepresented communities.
Your support is what allows us to tell these stories, bringing attention to the issues that are often overlooked. Without your contributions, these voices might not be heard.
Every dollar you give helps us continue to shine a light on these critical issues in the run up to the election and beyond

Sir: Having been brought up in New Zealand, where there never has been an established church, and serving as I do at present in the Church of Wales, which was disestablished in 1920, I find it very strange that David Streater of the Church Society should believe that disestablishment of the Church of England would lead to 'increasing lawlessness at every level' (letter, 26 January).
I can find no evidence for any more lawlessness in either New Zealand or Wales, or in any other country where the Anglican communion is present, than there is today in 'established' England.
Yours sincerely,
