Be. Like. Finland.

I don’t think Justin Welby gives a shit about the survivors of the predator he failed to report. Ian Hislop spoke about confronting him the day after his resignation as he had fun at a gala, no fucks given. He’s entitled and enabled, like most men of his ilk that are wrongly in a position of power.
