So was marty hopkirk..

Welby is a loser. Talking about swapping statues in Westminster Abbey when he could just launch a new Bilderstürm.

Well I’d be confused it I had opened the door to that lot

Would any of you criticise Islam for homophobia?

Only one white face in that picture, no wonder he didn’t stand out.

Again playing black and white card shame, just respect all human beings are same and are creation of God Brahma

Was he hiding in the shadows?

Who said that? 😂

Great achievement, you should get noble prize

Gee. So much for humility. If he felt that way, he should have offered his suffering up to God.

Were you standing in front of a black wall? 🤔

The failure of the CofE has led to success for the Pentecostal church. Still if Welby can find some dodgy statues to lock up everything will be fine...

Read the article.. he made this assertion based upon one interaction. No evidence of discrimination or racism, just he felt that one person didn't really see him, so therefore he was a victim. Many people or every skin colour, in everyday life feel ignored at some point.

✝️ hates black people... come to islam

Absolutely, the British society is NOT rascist and the Anglican Church as well not!
