The National Secular Society has called the Church of England's established status "unsustainable" after new figures revealed a sharp decline in affiliation.

The proportion of Brits who described themselves as 'belonging to the Church of England' fell to a record low in 2017, according to the most recent British Social Attitudes survey.

The survey, conducted by NatCen Social Research, shows affiliation to the C of E more than halved in 15 years, falling from 31% in 2002 to 14% in 2017.

Fifty-two per cent of people now say they have no religion, including seven out of 10 of those aged 18-24. This is the second year in a row that the survey has found a non-religious majority in Britain.
