Didn’t walk into a bar but they did find themselves together at Windsor Castle in this rather odd juxtaposition:

The Queen is flanked by Justin Welby who believes – although he is slippery about admitting it – in same sex-marriage and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar who believes homosexuality is “completely strange to eastern men… who are naturally disgusted with such deviance”.

By rights Welby should regard the imam as a homophobe – except that would make Welby an Islamophobe. What a conundrum.

My sympathy is with the Queen who was stuck in the middle.
