St Paul's dean steps down over protests

The occupation of London's St Paul's Cathedral by anti-capitalist protesters has lead to another high-profile resignation.

Graeme Knowles, the dean of the cathedral, said the continuing controversy was behind his decision to stand down.

His resignation follows that last week of Giles Fraser, a senior priest who had welcomed the anti-capitalist demonstrators to camp outside the landmark.

Fraser had said he resigned because he feared moves to evict the protesters could end in violence.

@mrpaulcaswell1 Well Mister Paul Caswell, you certainly have a very Islamic name considering your Muslim!!!! You live your life anyway you want as long as you make others happy, we are a community and if you want the freedom to practice your lifestyle then others also have the freedom to practice theirs. Ahmadinijad gave an excellent speech to the united nations and anyone who's been entertained by our comments please check it out and make your own mind up as to what kind of man he is.

@mrpaulcaswell1 just to clarify, I assumed you did live in England, I could tell by your language, unfortunatley you are a poor embassador for the UK you show a tendency toward Neanderthalism, can I assure everyone who reads this that not all British people have the manners of a dog and the language of the gutter. for your info I am British and ashamed of attitudes like yours. please bring back good old fashioned manners, respect, morals and that is a real english attitude.

[foreverfabulous101]

@mrpaulcaswell1as you are leaving comments on an anti capatalism video i assume you are unhappy with our system, maybe its just possible that the system is trying to paint Ahmadinajad as a terrorist because they dont want you to listen to him.

@mrpaulcaswell1 your use of language is delightful, and brings much entertainment, you are a comedy act i take it you are standing up for bigots, morons and other low intellect species of the nation, actually that would be wrong to assume there are others like you, you only represent yourself.
