Justin Welby Career

Welby worked for eleven years in the oil industry, five of them for the French oil company Elf Aquitaine based in Paris. In 1984 he became treasurer of the oil exploration group Enterprise Oil plc in London, where he was mainly concerned with West African and North Sea oil projects. He retired from his executive position in 1989 and said that he sensed a calling from God to be ordained.

During his oil industry career, Welby became a congregation member at the evangelical Anglican church of Holy Trinity in Brompton, London.

In July 2013, following the report of the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards, Welby explained that senior bank executives avoided being given information about difficult issues to allow them to "plead ignorance". He also said he would possibly have behaved in the same way and warned against punishing by naming and shaming individual bankers which he compared to the behaviour of a lynch mob.

Archbishop of Canterbury reveals his ancestral links to slavery: Justin Welby's relatives enslaved people on a plantation in Jamaica and were later compensated by the UK government

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 22, 2024
The Archbishop of Canterbury has revealed his family's ties to slavery. The Most Reverend Justin Welby disclosed that his ancestor owned enslaved people on a plantation in Jamaica and was compensated by the British government when slavery was abolished. In a personal statement, Dr Welby reaffirmed his commitment to addressing the legacies of slavery. The Church of England's most senior bishop revealed he recently made the discovery that his late biological father, Sir Anthony Montague Browne, who was a private secretary to Winston Churchill, 'had an ancestrial connection to the enslavement of people in Jamaica and Tobago'. Montague Browne, the son of a British army colonel, was born in May 1923. He studied at Magdalen College, Oxford, and then joined the RAF. He died in 2013 aged 89.

MPs take first step down road to assisted dying with controversial legislation laid out in Parliament for the first time... as Dutch expert issues warning

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 17, 2024
The Bill received its first reading in the Commons, paving the way for terminally ill adults to be given the right to end their lives. But a Dutch expert warned that changing the law means 'supply will create demand' as the Archbishop of Canterbury raised fears about the move.

Terminally ill could end their lives if a judge and doctor agree under new assisted dying law - as Archbishop of Canterbury warns people will feel a 'duty' to stop being a 'burden'

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 16, 2024
Campaigners gathered outside Parliament today as a proposed new law on assisted dying was presented to the House of Commons. Both those in favour and against allowing terminally ill people to end their lives travelled to Westminster ahead of the introduction of controversial legislation. Labour MP Kim Leadbeater is behind the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill and this morning insisted it would have 'clear criteria, safeguards and protections'. She formally introduced her Bill to the Commons on Wednesday, and it will be debated and could face a first vote when it has its second reading on November 29. The detail of the proposed legislation is unlikely to be set out until closer to that first Commons debate. But Ms Leadbeater has suggested two doctors and a judge would have to agree that terminally ill patients can be helped to end their lives under her Bill. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby , staged a dramatic intervention ahead of the Bill's formal introduction by warning it would put the most vulnerable at risk. He said those who feel a 'burden' on their family may feel a 'duty' to end their lives.
