Farage's Faith: A Thin Veil for Anti Muslim Sentiment? Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury, has criticized Nigel Farage for using Christianity as a cover for anti Muslim sentiment in the UK.

Williams notes that anxiety about migration and anti Islamism are driving forces behind this trend, with some politicians using theology as a way to gain credibility.
