    Howard, as on so many things I think the French have it right.

    From their law of 1905 establishing state secularism, all religious properties became the property of the state but are used by religious groups at no cost, whilst being maintained by the state.

    This saves the dreadful position that we have in this country of charging people to walk around their great cathedrals as though they are visiting a minor country house.

    The French law, whilst in leaving a dis-established church (a good idea IMHO) nevertheless operates in favour of 'traditional' religions (another good idea).
