Archbishop Williams Resigns

[anotherbob]

I have tried to think of something of less importance than this and the best I can do is to recall the title of a book I saw once. It was Sex and death in Protozoa : the History of an Obsession / Graham Bell. -- New York : Cambridge University Press, 1988.

hmmm. I rather tend to the Guardian commentator's view of John Sentamu -

Bookies' early favourite, though at 63 would be older than Williams. Loud, self-confident, a relentless self-publicist and ambitious. Originally a refugee from Uganda, where he became a judge and narrowly escaped execution by Idi Amin, he would be the first black archbishop of Canterbury and for that reason a populist choice. Many bishops, though, suspect his intellectual coherence, consistency and judgement. He has come out against the government's plans for gay marriage – bad timing if he wants to endear himself to ministers – and also wrote what many regard as an over-effusive column, welcoming Rupert Murdoch's new Sun on Sunday with a "wow!"

Good Lord ... black, populist, straight-talking. down-to-earth, 'non-intellectual', unafraid of government ministers... let's hope this strange chap never becomes the Archbishop of Canterbury!

Ah, so near to the hallowed turf of Kitkat Crescent and the attendances up a bit too -
