Sacking bishops

So Pete Broadbent, Bishop of Willesden in London, has been suspended for his comments about Willaim and Kate's wedding. Well, his comments were pretty silly and very rude. Should he have been "suspended indefinitely" (i.e. sacked)?
Well I'm not going to say what I think about that, but how is it that bishops who deny basic biblical doctrine and morality get to stay in post while Broadbent gets the sack? We have had bishops who deny the physical resurrection of Jesus; who deny the authority and reliability of the Bible; who get  drunk and cant' remember what happened; who say the mass and so deny the sufficiency of Christ's cross-work - and yet they all stay in post.
Astonishing!
