We may be willing to stay in communion with the Irish Church, but consider the English branch of the Catholic Church a separate church from the Irish Church." -Archbishop James Connell, Primate of England

We still hold all our traditions and doctrines, we are simply in communion with the Orthodox. Nothing has changed other than that we recognize we are in communion with the Orthodox. If you are in communion with us, you would be in communion with the Orthodox as well. In what ways is the Church in England different than our own? -Archbishop Stiofan, Primate of All Ireland
