One of Church of England's most senior bishops is stepping down for six weeks after he was threatened with vote of no confidence over his leadership
Local reports say he is stepping down for six weeks because of the discontent.
The Rt Rev Deborah Mary Sellin, Suffragan Bishop of Southampton, said in a statement: ‘Bishop Tim has today informed me he will be stepping back from his role as Bishop of Winchester for the next six weeks, so that he can focus on discussions about future leadership and governance reform in the Diocese.
‘I fully support his decision. Bishop Tim and Lambeth Palace have requested that, over this period, I temporarily take responsibility for the Diocese and I shall be working with the team at Wolvesey to ensure full continuity.
‘I realise that, even before today’s news, this has been an enormously challenging 15 months for us all as a diocese and as a church – as it has been for the entire country. On behalf of Bishop Tim and the team, I wanted to thank you once again for all you have been doing for your parishes and your communities, in such trying circumstances.
‘As the country begins to emerge tentatively from the long shadow of Covid-19, our anticipation continues to be tempered by necessary caution.
‘We will, of course, continue to be led by Government and National Church of England guidance, so that we can all stay as safe as possible.’
The Church Times says between 20 and 30 senior church figures in the diocese, clergy and laity, had threatened at the diocesan synod to pass a vote of no confidence in his leadership.
A spokesperson for the Church of England said ‘As the diocese of Winchester has already announced, Bishop Tim Dakin has stepped back for a period of six weeks, so that issues raised re: leadership and governance reform in the diocese can be addressed.
‘This process is now under way.’
In 2019 the bishop was removed from his role overseeing churches on the Channel Islands following a dispute with the Dean of Jersey.
The standing committee of the Deanery of Guernsey wrote to the Archbishop’s Commission set up to examine the affair, saying ‘While the handling of the Jersey safeguarding issue may have been the trigger for the current position, it is not the only matter which has so seriously strained the relationship.
‘Bishop Timothy has consistently been resistant to the Islands’ special relationship to the diocese, and his apparent wish to treat Guernsey and Jersey as English deaneries is unacceptable to both the secular authorities and the church communities in the Islands.’

#1 “ONE” not triune: ……Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!
Jesus is only a son by vertue of the fact that the human flesh that the SINGULAR PERSON GOD occupied belonged to God personaly there was no other spirit in Jesus to lay claim to the male human flesh/son of marry/”SON OF MAN” …..erogo “son OF GOD” bleonging to God (as a possesion) not a second or different person!! As such Jesus is not the bastard son trinitarians or muslims would try to make him out to be
