Archbishop of Canterbury grudgingly withdraws award from man whose past she was fully aware of after being caught. Should be a resigning matter.

I guess a guy showing up like this with women covered like that didn’t bother her at all. But it took bringing bin Laden into the picture that finally made her realize that this was a stupid idea.

That was just one of at least a dozen reasons ahead should have had not to bloody do that. Doesn't she have staff to do a background research?

It's actually fairly difficult to find a muslim who isn't atleast halfway sympathetic to Bin Laden.

If this isnt the time, that these virtue signalling leftists begin to realise that they lack critical thinking. I dont know what is. Just picking people for their gender, their skin colour or their religion is making a mockery of this country.

Eh? No research- just a head rush into DEI. Christ little wonder the church is on dying gasp. Renting out tombs for corporate booze events while celebrating terrorist sympathisers. Have we hit rock bottom yet?

She must have a team of advisors - all of them so blinded by the "brown man good - white man bad" ideology, that they didn't think for one moment to check he wasn't one of the vilest cunts on earth. Extraordinary.

But screw the two women held in doctrinal hostage by this beardy islamic twat, one barely able to see through her prison of religious-mandated attire. Sarah Mullally doesn't give to hoots about them.

Just how rotten is the system in this country that an terrorist sympathizer was given an award on 9/11, and the entire system apparently had no idea who the person actually was?
