Rejected petition William Roach (Ken Barlow) should be sacked from Coronation Street

More details

William Roach due to recent remarks made in the press regarding disabilities and child abuse victims 'getting what they deserve' should be dismissed from Coronation Street. An apology is not sufficient for this kind of behaviour. Chris Fountain was 'sacked', veteran dj Derek Randall 'sacked' for inadvertantly playing offensive material among many others. William Roach remarks are far worse, action needs to be taken.
