Father Calvin Robinson was defrocked after serving five months at St. Paul's in Grand Rapids. He came to the U.S. after claiming on his website that England had grown too secular and apathetic.

“Clearly, he has not, and as such, his license in this Church has been revoked. He is no longer serving as a priest in the ACC,” the church said, adding that mimicking the Nazi salute is “harmful, divisive, and contrary to the tenets of Christian charity.”

The Anglican Catholic Church defrocked British priest Calvin Robinson after he made a gesture at the National Pro-Life Summit that critics likened to a Nazi salute.
