People tend to look up to Calvin Robinson. They don’t have any choice: he’s immensely tall. And his striking presence is given added status by a tall mop of hair.

He’s a man of strong and clear opinions – but expressed in a pleasant voice and with good humour and a sense of balance. And he’s a man of rather agreeably understated old-fashioned Anglicanism. Currently a deacon, he talks of his church and parish, mentioning that he will be “priested at Petertide”.

Already a well-known figure on GB News and in the columns of various publications, he attracted publicity when it was revealed that his clear-cut opinions seemed to be deemed insufficiently left-leaning by the team in charge of ordinations in the Church of England.
