Further To Yesterday's Post

Canon Giles Fraser- who welcomed the protesters to St. Paul's when they first showed up- and told the police to back off- has resigned from the office of Canon Chancellor of the cathedral- presumably to distance himself from everything that has happened since. Good for him!  l love it when a person resigns on a question of principle. It's something that happens all too rarely.

Having now read up on the situation: I am sorry they've lost him, because he sounds like exactly the sort of person who should be around St. Paul's, but it is honorable of him. I hope somewhere else in the church knows how to appreciate him.

I imagine he'll find little difficulty getting another post. After all, he is now a national figure.
