We will welcome this ‘outreach’ from the head of the ‘true faith’, won’t we?
What is he coming for?
- To admonish the wayward of these islands?
- To forgive us?
- To apologise for the historical and on-going travesties of the Church of Rome?
We are told that the Pope's visit will cost the UK tax-payer £12,000,000 in respect of security and police protection.
If I want to visit Rome, I will pay my air fare. I will take out holiday insurance. I will pay for my accommodation. Bearing in mind my EU citizenship, I assume that the laws of that visited land are adequate to protect me at no additional personal cost.
Let the Pope bring his own Rottweilers at his expense!
