Williams faced a torrent of critical headlines for a second day on Saturday and the Sun launched a campaign to remove him from office. The Sun printed a form so readers could make a “complaint of misconduct” against Williams who it said had destroyed his credibility and “given heart to Muslim terrorists”.
Some bishops criticised Williams’ remarks and several members of the Church of England’s governing body, the general synod, called for his resignation. “I don’t think he is the right man for the job any longer ... At best it was politically inept and at worst it was sheer foolishness,” general synod member Alison Ruoff told Sky News.
