The press are really catching up fast, even involving H.R.H. Prince Charles.

One example:- https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-48214957

If you Google the Bishops name, there are many many more recent references in the press.

A statement from the school might be a good idea.

A man with friends in low places.

Takes a lot of secrets to the grave with him.

As they say in football parlance doubtless it will 'all go quiet over there' now he has gone.

Well, the dead can't be libelled or prosecuted, so some word about this man from the School is perhaps due. And I don't expect an oration.

I think The School will remain tactfully silent.

I think you mean that the school will remain conveniently silent.

Well, either he’s discovered God in the afterlife, in which case he’s hopefully getting a proper kicking, or he’s discovered there’s no God, in which case he spent his life on a hiding to nothing.
