David Cameron: Rescind and apologise for the appointment of Justin Welby to the See of Canterbury

The Issue

The head of the anglican union should not support bigotry and hatred that keeps in place the second class citizenship of Queer Britons.

Justin Welby has played into the same twisted logic that allowed separate drinking fountains, and has opposed the basic civil right of lesbian and gay couples to be married under British Law.

HE IS UNSUITED FOR THIS HIGH AND NOBLE OFFICE

We as citizens of the United Kingdom, and those subject to the auspices of the anglican union around the world, reject this flawed and cruel choice.

David Cameron must make another choice for the position, who does not oppose basic equal rights for the people he represents.
