You do know that the country essentially is overlooked by the Church, Parliament and Monarchy.
There are 3 houses that sit and overlook decisions and have different levels of pull, influence and power: the Lords, the Commons and the Bishop's.
The Bishops not only have influence over the Anglican community but also the wider faiths through their strategically set up Presence and Engagement centres and forums set up with key faith leaders from other traditions and faiths.
Additionally, the Prince of Whales has the title and responsibilities of Defender of the Faiths.

Faith has influence on ordinary people, yes. Like it should.
But you imply that faith has influence over the politics in the UK or decision making organisations in society, which is not the case.
