Referendum rivals 

trade claims in fight 

for Catholic votes 

NJPN criticises ‘selfish’ 

debate and urges voters to 

remember common good 

Continued from page 1 

Mr Tugendhat continued: “Unity is 

part of social teaching because it protects 

the weak, and this option for the poor is 

at the heart of the Christian message.” 

He stressed that voting for the status 

quo did not have to mean you accept the 

EU as it stands, however: “Voting for 

unity is not voting for stasis. As Pope 

Francis made clear, unity demands flexibility 

and countries across the continent 

are crying out for a partnership better 

adapted to their lives, just as he described. 

Britain could lead that change in the interests 

of our neighbours and for ourselves 

because only by guarding abroad the liberties 

we prize so highly can we secure 

them at home. 

“The message from Rome is clear, ” he 

said, “we are one communion.” 

Gisela Stuart rejected this outlook, however, 

saying the EU was now culpable in 

punishing the weakest in its society for 

the economic ills of the continent. 

“The EU has imposed harsh austerity 

packages even when elected governments 

opposed them, packages that cut pensions, 

privatised public services and drove 

youth unemployment to 45-50 per cent 

in Spain and Greece. 

“This tragedy has left the principle of 

subsidiarity in shreds.” 

Baroness Smith of Newnham, a Liberal 

Democrat member of the House of Lords, 

stressed that Catholics should remember 

the peace dividend that has been created 

by the EU when voting: “It’s founding 

fathers – predominantly Catholics – 

sought to make war ‘materially impossible’… 

the EU reflects a Catholic desire 

for solidarity to replace destructive 

nationalism.” 

That was why, she said, a vote to Remain 

had to be the Catholic choice: “Openness 

and solidarity are key aspects underpinning 

the EU… they are values that 

Catholics should be advocating. 

“A vote to Leave would have untold 

ramifications across the EU. By continuing 

to play a full part in the EU, the UK can 

aspire to offer the solidarity we as 

Catholics believe in. 

“Walking away from our neighbours 

into isolationism surely cannot be the 

Catholic way.” 

EU debate is hitting race 

relations, warns Campbell 

Race relations in the UK could be permanently 

damaged by the “extremely 

ugly” rhetoric of Brexit campaigners, a 

former Liberal Democrat leader has 

warned. 

Lord Menzies Campbell compared the 

tactics of those seeking a Leave vote in 

the EU referendum to the controversial 

comments of Republican presidential 

hopeful Donald Trump. 

Lord Campbell, head of the European 

Movement in Scotland, called for the 

Brexit campaign to tone down its language 

on immigration or risk long-term damage 

regardless of the result. 

He urged the Remain campaign to refocus 

the debate on the the benefits of 

migration from the EU to the UK, emphasising 

University College London research 

showing European migrants made 

a net contribution of £20 billion to UK 

public finances between 2000 and 2011. 

He said: “As the Remain side, we must 

robustly seek to promote the benefits 

that migrants from other parts of the EU 

have brought to the UK. 

“We know that they make a major contribution 

to the economy, as well as socially 

and culturally, and what we are 

seeing is a deliberate stoking-up of fears 

and prejudice in a desperate attempt to 

boost support for Brexit. 

“There are similarities between the 

tactics used by the Brexit campaign and 

Republican presidential candidate Donald 

Trump on immigration. 

“To counter this we need to go on the 

offensive and highlight the positive benefits 

that migrants bring to this country. 

“The language we are hearing is extremely 

ugly and the danger is that race 

relations in this country will be permanently 

challenged, whatever the result 

of the referendum.” 

The National Justice and Peace Network 

has appealed to Catholics on all sides in 

the Referendum campaign to ignore the 

negativity and self-interest of much of 

the debate and instead put their faith 

uppermost in their minds when they cast 

their votes on Thursday, 23rd June. 

The Catholic group has heavily criticised 

the debate thus far, claiming that 

it has centred too much on the economic 

impacts and immigration. Instead, they 

have called on people of faith to reflect 

on the gospel and make their voting decision 

rooted in the ‘common good’. 

In a statement the NJPN urged “that 

when considering how to vote, our decision 

reflects the principles of Catholic 

Social Teaching and a vision for the future 

where the common good of ALL – in the 

UK, in Europe and globally – is 

paramount.” 

They also appealed for any vote to be 

made considering its consequences to 

the least advantaged. 

Its statement placed criticism at the 

door of both camps in the debate. On 

Remain it said its leaders “must take responsibility 

for and seriously consider 

what leadership from State and Church 

will be required to address the real fears 

around population changes, on housing, 

jobs, wages and schooling.” 

It also appeared to accept one of the 

Leave campaigns principal criticisms of 

the EU’s leadership, that it does not listen 

to the UK’s genuine concerns often 

enough: “If the the EU has not treated 

the UK with enough consideration in the 

past, what further impetus does our political 

leadership require to put our case 

persuasively? ” 

But it also asked some tough questions 

of those favouring the Leave campaign. 

“Whereas a vote to Remain faces us with 

broadly a continuation of what we know, 

a vote for Brexit is to sanction a definite 

change. Would such a change improve 

the working conditions of the lower paid? 

Would the new UK be arguing for stronger 

and sooner measures against climate 

change? Would Brexit lead to the UK’s 

overseas aid budget being cut, or a more 

or less sympathetic attitude to 

migration?” 

NJPN placed these responsibilities at 

the door of the Brexit campaign, asking 

Catholics to consider whether its leaders 

are “capable of managing this transition 

in a way that does justice to today’s and 

tomorrow’s children, particularly the 

poor?” 

It also asked what impact Brexit would 

have on the make-up of the UK, if England 

had voted to leave but the rest of the UK 

vote to Remain: “Would social and political 

cohesion be improved or jeopardised”, 

particularly around the borders 

in Ireland. 

NJPN added: “We urge all Christians 

to commit their decision on which way 

to vote to deep prayer, serious reflection 

on their calling as disciples not of political 

masters, but of the Lord of All, and to 

remember the efforts of countless Christians 

and others who have invested themselves 

already in working for the common 

good.” 

‘‘ 

When considering how to vote, our decision must 

reflect the principles of Catholic Social Teaching 

and a vision for the future where the common 

good of ALL – in the UK, in Europe and globally – 

is paramount. 

Memo from CAFOD 

World 

Refugee 

Day – 

20 June 

13-year-old 

Alaa (far right) 

lives in Beirut 

with her 

mother, father, 

three brothers 

and one sister. 

When she was 

eight, she had 

to run for her 

life from her home in Syria because their town was being bombed. 

The family now live in two bedrooms near to the Caritas Lebanon 

Migrant Centre in the city. 

Alaa remembers everything: the horror of war, the absolute fear of 

running for her life, the hopelessness of living as a refugee. Because 

she remembers, she needs counselling. But she is not alone, a 

generation of children who have run from war and now live as 

refugees could face a lifetime of psychological scars because of 

their experiences. 

Alaa has had counselling at the centre and is now learning French. 

The lessons are a way for refugees to integrate into Lebanese society, 

as French is widely used as well as Arabic. They are also part of the 

healing process where Alaa can start to rebuild her life as a keen 

young student again. “I really want to be a doctor,” Alaa says. “But 

most of all, I want to go home.”

Irish bishops say vote for Christian values 

Nick Benson 

Irish bishops have called on the people 

of Northern Ireland to use the EU Referendum 

as a valuable opportunity to ensure 

that the EU is living up to Christian 

values. 

In an open letter, the Primate of All 

Ireland and Archbishop of Armagh, Eamon 

Martin, was joined by Bishop Noel 

Treanor, Bishop McAreavey, Bishop Mac- 

Daid and the Bishop of Derry, Donal 

McKeown in urging the country to make 

sure they vote in the forthcoming EU 

Referendum. The decision was charged 

with “far-reaching political, economic 

and cultural implications” for Ireland 

and the whole of the EU. 

“It is crucial that we take seriously our 

responsibility as citizens to inform ourselves 

and to vote on the issue at stake,” 

the bishops said in a statement. 

They stressed the importance of each 

individual vote, particularly from younger 

voters whom the outcome would affect 

greatly. 

They highlighted the importance of 

human rights considerations being at 

the heart of today’s European co-operation, 

so the Union continues to contribute 

to social justice, social cohesion and 

equality. “As citizens of Europe, inspired 

by our Christian faith, we need to take 

responsibility for ensuring that the policies 

of the European Union reflect our commitment 

to the protection of the dignity 

of human life at all stages – from the 

moment of conception until its natural 

end,” read the statement. 

“True prosperity can only be achieved 

when the most vulnerable members of 

society are adequately protected through 

policies which address poverty, social exclusion, 

homelessness, health inequalities, 

and which remove the barriers to integration 

for refugees and migrants.” 

The bishops cited Pope Francis’ recent 

address on conferral of the Charlemagne 

prize, on 6th May, when he reflected on 

the challenges facing contemporary European 

society, recalling the vision of the 

founding fathers of the European Union. 

“They were prepared to pursue alternative 

and innovative paths in a world scarred 

by war,” he said. “Not only did they boldly 

conceive the idea of Europe, but they 

dared to change radically the models 

that had led only to violence and destruction. 

They dared to seek multilateral 

solutions to increasingly shared 

problems”. 

While noting that economic integration 

and degrees of political unification of 

member states within the Union were 

clearly matters of prudential judgment 

for individuals, the bishops said it was 

important to recognise the links between 

the core values of Catholic Social Teaching 

and the founding vision of the EU.

The Catholic Universe | Friday 17th June, 2016 

Pope to back charity’s 

Year of Mercy appeal 

John Pontifex 

Pope Francis is to give his personal support 

to an awareness and fund-raising 

campaign organised by a leading Catholic 

charity to mark the pontiff’s Year of 

Mercy. 

Aid to the Church in Need’s ‘Be God’s 

Mercy’ initiative will be launched on Friday 

(17th June) at 1pm at a press conference 

in the offices of Vatican Radio in 

Rome. 

The pope is personally associating himself 

with the campaign through a video 

message to be released on Friday, (17th 

June), in which he highlights ACN’s work. 

In his message, the pope will call on 

people to “carry out works of mercy together 

with ACN in every corner of the 

world, in order to meet the many, many 

needs of today”. 

ACN projects supported during the 

four-month ‘Be God’s Mercy’ campaign 

include prison ministry, drug rehabilitation 

centres and support groups for 

women who have suffered violence 

In his video message, the pope says: “I 

am entrusting these works to Aid to the 

Church in Need.” 

For Christians and others who fled Islamist 

terror group Daesh (IS) in Iraq, 

the pope has supported an ACN project 

providing medicine for St Joseph’s Clinic, 

Pillars of St George’s Hall, Liverpool, 

have the colours of a rainbow flag 

projected onto them in tribute to the 

victims of the Orlando shootings at 

the Pulse nightclub.

Irbil, in the Kurdish north of the country, 

which serves 2,800 displaced people. 

The pope’s financial support was sent 

via Italian Bishop Francesco Cavina of 

Carpi to ACN project partner Archbishop 

Bashar Warda of Irbil. 

Fr Imad Gargees, a Catholic priest 

working with Iraqi refugees, will give a 

description of the project at Friday’s press 

conference. 

He will also show a short video about

campaign with 

an account of

the clinic with a message of thanks to 

the pope from Archbishop Warda. 

Also speaking at the press conference 

will be Archbishop Sebastian Shaw of 

Lahore, Pakistan, who will give an account 

of the atrocity on Sunday, 27th March in 

Lahore where suicide bombers killed 76 

people in a park, many of them Christians 

celebrating on Easter Day. 

Pakistan is the focus of three ‘Be God’s 

Mercy’ projects – support for victims of 

the March 2015 suicide bomb blasts on 

two churches in Yohannabad, outside 

Lahore, as well as increased security both 

for St John’s, one of the two churches in 

question, and the nearby St Francis Xavier 

Major Seminary. 

Further details about the ‘Be God’s 

Mercy’ project will be given to the pope 

at a private audience on Friday, ahead of 

the press conference, at which he will 

meet Cardinal Mauro Piacenza, the international 

president of ACN, Johannes 

Heereman, executive president, ACN International, 

and the charity’s generalsecretary, 

Philipp Ozores. 

The initiative, which ends on 4th October, 

the Feast of St Francis of Assisi, a 

saint close to the pope’s heart, has the 

support of ACN’s network of fund-raising 

and awareness-raising offices in 22 countries 

around the world, from South Korea 

to Colombia, USA to Australia as well as 

networks all over Europe. 

Good relations between Pope Francis 

and ACN go back a long way. 

While still Archbishop of Buenos Aires, 

the then Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio carried 

out a number of projects with the help 

of ACN. 

In a letter written to mark the 60th anniversary 

of the charity in 2007, the future 

pope described the charity as a “symbol 

of communion and fraternity with the 

suffering Church”.

Day for Life celebrates the 

many gifts from God 

As the Catholic Church in England and 

Wales prepares for Day for Life – the day 

in the Church’s year dedicated to raising 

awareness about the meaning and value 

of human life at every stage and in every 

condition – Pope Francis has sent his 

good wishes and prayers for a successful 

and inspiring day to be celebrated in 

parishes on Sunday, 19th June. 

In a letter sent from the Apostolic Nuncio 

to Great Britain, Archbishop Antonio 

Mennini, to the bishop for Day for Life, 

Bishop John Sherrington, the Holy Father’s 

Apostolic Blessing is cordially imparted 

“upon all those persons who are participating 

in this significant event and working 

in any way for the promotion of the 

dignity of every human person from the 

moment of conception until natural 

death.” 

Day for Life 2016 will this year explore 

how the wonder of human life and God’s 

creation are intimately connected. 

Dr Pia Matthews, a lecturer in Healthcare 

Ethics at St Mary’s University Twickenham, 

encapsulates this wonder in the 

liturgical resources that she has created 

for Day for Life this year. 

She tells us the story of Paula, a woman 

who “has profound intellectual and multiple 

disabilities” who “spends much of 

her time rocking gently, smiling and looking 

around her. She cannot talk but she 

People from diverse cultures and religions 

working together greatly enrich scientific 

research, Pope Francis told international 

astronomy students. 

“All of us dwell under the same sky. All 

of us are moved by the beauty revealed 

in the cosmos and reflected in the study 

of the heavenly bodies and substances,” 

he said to students embarking on a 

month-long astronomy project sponsored 

by the Vatican. 

The summer programme, held every 

two years, hosts at no charge a small 

group of promising university and postgraduate 

students, mostly from developing 

nations, who specialise in astronomical 

sciences. 

During the audience in the apostolic 

palace, the pope thanked the professors 

and benefactors who made the programme 

possible, saying the “impressive 

representation of students from so many 

parts of the world is a sign of how diversity 

can greatly enrich scientific research.” 

clearly loves to sit outside in her wheelchair, 

in spontaneous appreciation, listening 

to the birds, feeling the warmth 

of the sun and the cool of the wind, 

taking in the scent of the flowers. Just 

watching the world go by. 

“Above all, she loves people to come 

and sit with her. As Jean Vanier, the 

founder of L’Arche says, people like Paula 

live by the heart.” 

“Paula reminds us all, especially very 

busy people, to stop and see that God 

has given us so many gifts, and often the 

most wondrous gifts are the simple ones 

that we take for granted. 

“It is also easy to overlook or ignore or 

indeed think less of people who rely on 

the heart, who do not seem to be ‘like 

us’ because of disability, age, vulnerability 

or frailty.” 

By growing in wonder, we learn to 

treasure more deeply the precious gift of 

human life. 

This weekend, 18-19th June, there will 

be a second collection in parishes to support 

Day for Life. Proceeds of the collection 

assist the work of The Anscombe 

Bioethics Centre and other life-related 

activities supported by the Church. 

Over 300,000 postcards will be distributed 

to parishioners in England and Wales 

this weekend about the wonderful gift of 

human life. 

Diversity enriches science 

as students scan the skies 

The international group of students, 

he said, showed how people from all different 

cultural and religious backgrounds 

share “the desire to understand the universe, 

God’s creation and our own place 

in it.” 

“We are united by the desire to discover 

the truth about how this marvellous universe 

operates,” he added. 

He urged the future astronomers and 

planetary scientists to find joy in their 

research and share the fruit of their studies 

with humility and fraternity. 

Each session of the summer school – 

held at the Vatican Observatory headquarters 

at the papal summer villa in 

Castel Gandolfo – is dedicated to a different 

area of research, and this year’s 

programme focused on water in the solar 

system and elsewhere. 

Since the first summer school was held 

in 1986, more than 350 students have 

taken part in the programme, with 85 

per cent still working in astronomy. 

Fears for Palestine’s Christians as 

numbers fall to fewer than 1,000 

The historic Palestinian Christian community 

of Gaza could cease to exist within 

the next generation, a UK-based Christian 

charity has warned. 

The already small Palestinian Christian 

population of Gaza was believed to number 

just over 1,300 when it was formally 

surveyed in 2014 (out of a total Gaza 

population of almost two million), but 

even this low number has fallen by almost 

ten per cent since then as a result of emigration, 

according to Christian charity 

Embrace the Middle East. 

And the pace of emigration may be 

accelerating: during the Easter 2016 period, 

when some Christians were given 

permits to leave the blockaded territory, 

around 40 Christians did not return. 

“This is a small community that traces 

its Christian origins right back to Bible 

times,” explained Embrace the Middle 

East CEO Jeremy Moodey, at the launch 

of the charity’s Summer Appeal for Palestinian 

Christian relief work in Gaza. 

“The emigration figures are very worrying, 

but those who are left make a massive 

difference out of all proportion to 

their number. 

“They work in a tiny land the size of 

the Isle of Wight, beleaguered by three 

recent wars and a 10-year blockade. However, 

their impact in a largely Muslim 

community, whether among young and 

old, male and female, is significant and 

needs our solidarity and support. 

“They run five schools, a general hospital, 

four primary healthcare clinics, two 

vocational training centres, a YMCA community 

centre and several other social 

projects. It’s an incredible commitment, 

and a humbling witness to their Christian 

faith. 

“In Gaza, practically everyone bears 

the physical or psychological scars of 

war. Embrace’s partners are serving local 

families, with hope in their hearts, because 

of the support given to them through 

prayers and financial gifts.” 

Embrace works with the Near East 

Council of Churches (NECC), one of 

Gaza’s largest Christian organisations, 

with far-reaching programmes in healthcare, 

education and financial assistance. 

“As well as community-focused mother 

and baby clinics, NECC offers an exceptional 

programme of vocational training 

for young adults, who can choose from 

secretarial and IT courses, electrics, car 

maintenance and other skills that will 

help them towards a secure future,” said 

Moodey. 

“The young people of Gaza, whether 

Christian or Muslim, need hope and inspiration 

– and that’s exactly what the 

money raised from this appeal aims to 

give them. 

“However, if all the Christians leave, 

life will be even more desperate as infrastructure 

and projects collapse. We urge 

you to support the amazing work of the 

Christian community through our summer 

appeal.”

YOUR GIFT WILL HELP TO SUPPORT OUR 

BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN DIRE DISTRESS 

Sister Celine of the Daughters of the 

Sacred Heart has written to The 

Little Way Association recently with 

an up-date on the work of her 

Community in Kenya, helping the 

very needy both young and old. 

They have purchased blankets, 

shoes, clothes and some medicines 

with a donation from The Little Way 

Association. The blankets were 

distributed to elderly needy people, 

especially those who are now 

bedridden, to “street children” and 

to other deprived children. “They all 

say a big thanks to The Little Way 

Association and its supporters for 

their love and care for them”, Sister 

Celine tells us. The Sisters cook a daily meal for the street children and now many of these youngsters 

have been given a place in a school. 

Poor children and old people in many areas of the developing world find life extremely hard, and The 

Little Way Association receives numerous requests for help each week from bishops, priests and sisters 

all around the world for deprived people. 

Will you enable a missionary priest or sister to carry the love, care and 

compassion of Christ to those of our brothers and sisters in dire distress 

and in urgent need of help? 

Every pound you send will be sent WITHOUT DEDUCTION and will be 

gratefully received.

Nuncio praises FHL for its vital 

support for Holy Land Christians 

His Excellency the Apostolic Nuncio in 

Great Britain, Archbishop Antonio Mennini, 

hosted a lunch on 11th June in 

support of the work of The Friends of 

The Holy Land (FHL). 

The event, held at the Papal Nunciature 

in Wimbledon, was organised by John 

Scanlon KCSG, KGCHS on behalf of The 

Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre 

of Jerusalem, which supports the Latin 

Patriarchate in the Holy Land, and FHL, 

which focuses on grassroots support to 

Christians living in the West Bank, Gaza, 

Israel and Jordan. 

Among those attending this ecumenical 

occasion were Emeritus Archbishop 

Kevin McDonald and Bishop Christopher 

Chessun, Anglican Bishop of Southwark. 

John Scanlon asked those attending 

to consider the lives of fellow Christians 

living in the Holy Land: “How would we 

feel if we came home one day to find 

our homes, our incomes and our capital 

had vanished or, as in the case of many 

Christian families, watched as our security 

slipped away over many years? 

“This is the daily reality faced by fellow 

Christians living in the Holy Land. Many 

individual Knights of the Holy Sepulchre 

support Friends of The Holy Land, which 

brings relief directly to individual named 

Christian families in the region.” 

Jim Quinn, chairman of FHL, has recently 

returned from a visit to the Holy 

Land and he updated attendees on current 

FHL projects in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, 

Nazareth and Nablus. 

He described the significant impact 

FHL funding was having on patients requiring 

treatment at hospitals such as 

St Luke’s in Nablus and families with 

house refurbishment programmes in 

and around Bethlehem. 

These schemes not only ensure needy 

Christian families have access to adequate 

housing and healthcare, but also 

Dr David Smith KHS, His Excellency 

The Apostolic Nuncio Archbishop 

Mennini and Jim Quinn, chairman 

of ‘The Friends of The Holy Land 

provide employment for hard-pressed 

Christians, who often find themselves 

cut out from the employment market. 

Jim Quinn said: “Christians in the 

Holy Land often feel isolated and forgotten. 

Through our projects we encourage 

them to flourish in the land of their 

Armagh’s Rome pilgrimage 

follows in saint’s footsteps 

birth. We work in ecumenical partnership 

with Anglican and Catholic Churches 

over here and with Christians from many 

denominations in the Holy Land. 

“Wherever I travelled in the last few 

days, the level of gratitude expressed for 

the support offered by FHL in the Holy 

Land was humbling, proving that we are 

able to make a real difference to people’s 

lives.”

Birthday honour 

for Depaul trustee 

Depaul trustee Louise Casey CB has been 

made a dame in the Queen’s Birthday 

Honours. 

Louise, who is head of the UK Government’s 

Troubled Families programme in 

the Department of Communities and Local 

Government, was congratulated by 

Mark McGreevy OBE, chief executive of 

Depaul International and the Institute 

of Global Homelessness (IGH). 

Mark said: “I am thrilled Louise Casey 

CB has been awarded a damehood in 

the Queen’s Birthday Honours list. The 

‘I want to share this 

honour with the many 

people I have worked 

with over the years’ 

Dame Casey 

award was granted in recognition of her 

tireless work and roles to help the homeless 

in government and in her personal 

capacity.” 

Louise has been a trustee of Depaul 

International since 2010 and Chair of the 

Advisory Committee of the Institute of 

Global Homelessness since 2014. 

Louise said: “I was honoured to receive 

notification from Buckingham Palace that 

I am to receive a damehood in the Queen’s 

Birthday Honours list. 

“I am delighted that the work that I, 

working in Government and with Depaul 

and IGH, have undertaken to help 

alleviate homelessness has been 

recognised. 

“I want to share this honour with the 

many people who I have worked with 

over the years whether in the public, 

charitable, or private sectors. And yet, 

with the number of homeless people rising 

every year, this is no time to rest on 

our laurels. 

“I am determined to work with Depaul 

and the Government to see a truly global 

response to preventing homelessness. 

We want to go beyond offering crisis response 

to stopping homelessness at its 

root. 

“My aim is to end homelessness wherever 

it rears its head.” 

Archbishop Eamon Martin, Archbishop 

of Armagh, has been in Rome this week 

leading the St Oliver Jubilee Year of Mercy 

pilgrimage. 

Before departing Archbishop Eamon 

said: “One hundred years on from the 

Easter Rising, we pilgrims will thank God 

for the huge steps that have been taken 

in Ireland towards peace and 

reconciliation. 

“However, with pervasive crime, gangland 

killings and the continued threat of 

paramilitary violence, with poverty and 

increased homelessness north and south, 

we recognise that much still needs to be 

done to create a culture of life and prosperity 

for all the people of Ireland.” 

Activities on the pilgrimage included 

the Pilgrim Walk of the Seven Churches 

in Rome, as referred to by St Oliver Plunkett 

in his letters. 

Assembling for Morning Prayer in St 

Peter's Square, pilgrims walked the 20km 

route, visiting seven basilicas, and entering 

through the Holy Doors of Mercy at the 

four major basilicas of St Peter, St John 

Lateran, St Paul outside the Walls and St 

Mary Major. 

The prayer intention for the pilgrim 

walk was ‘Peace and Reconciliation 

through the intercession of St Oliver Plunkett’. 

The pilgrims invoked God’s loving 

mercy for Ireland, for the continent of 

Europe and for the world. 

Archbishop Eamon said: “At this time 

the world needs our prayers and we will 

be conscious on our pilgrim walk of how 

much the world needs to see the face of 

God's mercy. 

“The work of mercy is needed today 

more than ever, especially in the face of 

mass hunger, injustice, wars, discrimination 

and violence in so many parts of 

the world. 

Remembering my predecessor St Oliver 

Plunkett, I will also be praying for Christians 

who are persecuted around the 

world today.” 

Tommy Burns from Drogheda, organiser 

of the pilgrimage and author of a recent 

biography of St Oliver Plunkett, said: 

“2016 marks the centenary of the Battle 

‘The world needs 

our prayers and 

to see the face of 

God's mercy...’ 

Archbishop 

Martin 

of the Somme and we will also remember 

the horrific loss of life of the youth of 

Europe at that time. 

“While Europe may seem at peace today, 

Ukraine tells a different story. I sometimes 

think that the continent suffers 

from a collective loss of memory, as many 

people seem to have forgotten the important 

treasures of its Christian 

heritage. 

“We are beset with shocking acts of 

terrorism, and Europe has difficulty in 

accepting its humanitarian responsibilities 

towards the many refugees on its borders. 

Why can we not welcome the many gifts 

which migrants can bring to our communities?” 

The majority of the 40 pilgrims on the 

St Oliver Jubilee Year of Mercy Pilgrimage 

to Rome are from the archdiocese of Armagh. 

Some are from Meath, which was 

the diocese of St Oliver’s birth, and a 

number are from Lamspringe in Germany, 

location of the oldest shrine of St Oliver, 

where bone relics of the martyred Archbishop 

of Armagh have been venerated 

since 1684. 

Each year thousands of pilgrims visit 

St Oliver Plunkett's shrine in St Peter's 

Church, Drogheda, in the archdiocese of 

Armagh, to venerate his relics and to 

learn about the saint’s extraordinary life 

story. Pilgrims pray for the sick and troubled, 

for family and friends. 

Born in Meath, St Oliver Plunkett was 

ordained a priest for the diocese in 1669, 

and each year celebrations of the life of 

St Oliver take place at his birthplace. St 

Oliver, a former Archbishop of Armagh 

and Primate of All Ireland, was martyred 

in Tyburn, England, in 1681. He was 

canonised as a martyr by Blessed Pope 

Paul VI in 1975. Along with Ss Patrick 

and Malachy, St Oliver is a patron saint 

of the archdiocese of Armagh.

Drug culture 

brings child 

neglect 

cê=pÜ~ó 

`ìääÉå 

Citizens of Orlando take part in a candlelit tribute 

to the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting 

A society without respect and 

openness to children and youth is like 

a land without water – everything 

dies. 

Parents, relatives and enlightened 

community leaders are increasingly 

alarmed and shocked by the spread of 

personality and mind-altering drugs. 

The role model they see before 

them when entering adolescence has 

the greatest influence on their lives 

and self-image. The most important is 

the loving, caring parent who teaches 

by good actions as much as by 

positive words. 

The young person can be inspired 

and become a socially-involved and 

active youth, helping others if listened 

to, involved in the life of the family, 

has good parents or brothers and 

sisters they can admire and imitate. 

If left to themselves as busy parents 

get more involved with themselves 

and forget their children’s needs for 

friendship and companionship, then 

they could lose their child. 

Hundreds of thousands of children 

run away from home and unloving 

and abusive parents. They join street 

gangs and use dangerous, banned 

drugs to forget their problems. 

Without guidance and positive 

leadership, the children are all too 

easily groomed, enticed and seduced 

to the dark side of life by predators 

lurking on the internet. If they have 

underlying childhood problems and 

hurts because of a dysfunctional 

family, they are extremely vulnerable. 

The inspiring good example of 

parents and friends that leads to close 

bonding and supportive friendship is 

perhaps the only way in today’s world 

to bring them to live a safe life of 

value, fulfilment and dignity. Many a 

good loving family who care for and 

support their child can lose their 

children to the influence of a drugtaking 

peer group. There is no doubt 

that acts of abuse and hurt against a 

child leave a lifelong inner scar that 

may never heal. 

We live in a world where one-infour 

children suffers abuse. It has 

created a generation of scarred, painfilled 

youth who want justice and 

retribution. Some may seek relief in 

pain killing drugs. 

As young people grow to 

adolescence, they are seeking 

meaning and purpose to their lives 

and yet childhood hurt blocks the 

happiness they deserve and need. 

They have more feelings of exclusion 

and rejection caused by the childhood 

memories and inner scars of fear of 

adults and punishment and they turn 

to chemical substances to try and heal 

themselves. When there are few 

people willing to listen and 

understand troubled youth, they turn 

to drugs. 

The reaction of misinformed and 

ignorant authority figures is to 

condemn, blame and punish young 

people for drug taking. The adults 

must listen and learn. What the youth 

need is to be listened to, express 

themselves and state their needs and 

be given supportive counseling. 

Branding them as criminals, 

deserving harsh punishment and even 

summary execution, is a total failure 

to understand the underlying plight 

and needs of the next generation. 

Likewise, legalising any dangerous 

drug solves none of the problems but 

exacerbates them all the more. It is 

lunacy to supply chemicals to youth 

to tranquilise their deep emotional 

family problems. What they need is 

emotional support, understanding 

and security. 

June 26th is designated World Drug 

Day Against Illicit Drug Use and 

Trafficking by the United Nations 

Anti-Drug Agency. Drugs are no 

substitute for a loving, supportive, 

listening family and community.

Pope leads prayers for victims 

of Orlando nightclub shootings 

Rob Beswick 

Pope Francis was among the first world 

leaders to offer his prayers and deepest 

sympathies to the victims of the Orlando 

night club killings, expressing his hope 

that people would find ways to identify 

and uproot “the causes of such terrible 

and absurd violence.” 

A lone gunman, who claimed allegiance 

to Islamic State/Daesh, murdered 49 people 

on 12th June at Pulse, a gay nightclub 

in Orlando, Florida. Another 53 people 

were injured before the gunman, identified 

as 29-year-old Omar Mir Seddique 

Mateen, was killed by members of a 

police SWAT team. 

Police said Mateen, a private security 

guard, legally purchased the two guns 

he used in the shooting, which is the 

deadliest mass shooting in US history. 

Describing the shooting as an expression 

of “homicidal folly and senseless 

hatred,” a Vatican statement on behalf 

of the pope said, “The terrible massacre 

in Orlando, with its dreadfully high number 

of innocent victims, has caused in 

Pope Francis, and in all of us, the deepest 

feelings of horror and condemnation, of 

pain and turmoil.” 

“Pope Francis joins the families of the 

victims and all of the injured in prayer 

and in compassion. Sharing in their indescribable 

suffering he entrusts them 

to the Lord so they may find comfort. 

“We all hope that ways may be found, 

as soon as possible, to effectively identify 

and contrast the causes of such terrible 

and absurd violence which so deeply upsets 

the desire for peace of the American 

people and of the whole of humanity,” 

the statement concluded. 

Across America and around the world 

there has been a huge outpouring of grief 

over the deaths, with Church and community 

leaders organising candlelit vigils 

for the victims and their families the 

night of the shooting. 

The Catholic bishop of Orlando led 

local tributes to the victims, saying their 

deaths were “a sword that has pierced 

the heart of the city.” 

Bishop John G. Noonan urged people 

of faith “to turn their hearts and souls” 

to God and pray for the victims, the families 

and emergency workers who responded 

to the horrific atack. 

“A sword has pierced the heart of our 

city. The healing power of Jesus goes 

beyond our physical wounds but touches 

every level of our humanity: physical, 

emotional, social, spiritual,” he said. 

“Jesus calls us to remain fervent in our

protection of life and human dignity 

and to pray unceasingly for peace in 

our world.” 

“Waking up to the unspeakable violence 

in Orlando reminds us of how precious 

human life is,” said Archbishop Joseph 

E. Kurtz of Louisville, Kentucky, who is 

president of the US Conference of Catholic 

Bishops. “Our prayers are with the victims, 

their families and all those affected by 

this terrible act. The merciful love of 

Christ calls us to solidarity with the suffering 

and to ever greater resolve in protecting 

the life and dignity of all.” 

His comments were echoed by Chicago 

Archbishop Blase J. Cupich, who said the 

Church would reach out to “the victims 

of the mass shooting in Orlando, their 

families and our gay and lesbian brothers 

and sisters.” 

Priests, deacons and counsellors from 

the diocese of Orlando and Catholic charities 

of Central Florida were among the 

first groups to offer help to victims, opening 

an emergency aid centre and provinding 

support for both eye witnesses of 

the shootings and members of the emergency 

services who were involved in ending 

the attack. 

Church personnel volunteered to help 

victims and families “on the front lines 

of this tragedy,” Bishop Noonan said. 

“They are offering God’s love and mercy 

to those who are facing unimaginable 

sorrow. They will remain vigilant and responsive 

to the needs of our hurting 

brothers and sisters.” 

The bishop also asked all parishes in 

the nine-county diocese in central Florida 

to include prayer intentions during Sunday 

Masses. 

“Today’s prayers have been offered for 

victims of violence and acts of terror ... 

for their families and friends ... and all 

those affected by such acts against God’s 

love,” Bishop Noonan said. “We pray for 

the people of the city of Orlando that 

God’s mercy and love will be upon us as 

we seek healing and consolation.” 

An evening prayer vigil for the community 

was held at St James Cathedral 

in Orlando on 13th June. 

He said the Catholic Church “recognises 

the affliction brought to our city, our 

families and our friends” by “this massive 

assault on the dignity of human life. ... I 

hope this opportunity to join each other 

in prayer will bring about an outpouring 

of the mercy of God within the heart of 

our community.” 

Archbishop Cupich expressed gratitude 

to the first responders and civilians at 

the scene of the shooting. They “heroically 

put themselves in harm’s way, providing 

an enduring reminder of what compassion 

and bravery look like – even in the 

face of such horror and danger,” he said. 

“In response to hatred, we are called 

to sow love,” he added. “In response to 

violence, peace. And, in response to intolerance, 

tolerance.” 

Scenes inside the nightclub were described 

by one police officer as “horrific”: 

“officers who responded have been left 

traumatised by the scene,” admitted Chief 

John Mina of the Orlando Police Department, 

who went on to praise the heroism 

of officers who first rescued people 

trapped inside the nightclub before killing 

the gunman in a shoot-out. 

Gunman Omar Mateen was described 

by one eye witness as “cool and calm” 

during his gun rampage. At one point 

he talked by phone to law enforcement 

officials about creating further carnage, 

claimed allegiance to the Islamic State 

and praised the Boston Marathon 

bombers. 

President Obama said the attack was 

“an example of the kind of homegrown 

extremism that all of us have been concerned 

about,” with a gunman who was 

inspired by radical material he found online, 

adding that “one of the biggest challenges 

we are going to have is this kind 

of propaganda and perversions of Islam 

that you see generated on the internet.” 

It has emerged that a number of people 

had expressed concern over the gunman’s 

behaviour prior to his deadly attack on 

the nightclub. One co-worker described 

to reporters how Mateen constantly railed 

against the gay community and had a 

hatred of Jews. He was said to have been 

particularly offended when he witnessed 

a public show of affection between two 

gay men, saying “they should be killed 

for doing that.” 

Mr Mateen was the subject of a low 

level investigation by the FBI into his behaviour 

but it is believed the inquiry 

found no concrete evidence linking him 

with extemist groups. 

“So far, we see no indication that this 

was part of a plot directed from outside 

the United States,” James Comey, FBI director, 

said, although he admitted that 

the bureau remained uncertain about 

his motives. “First he claimed family connections 

to Al Qaeda, [a Sunni Muslim 

group] then he said he was a member of 

Hezbollah,” [a Shi’ite Muslim group which 

is in conflict with Al Qaeda and Daesh.] 

Mr Mateen worked as a security guard 

for G4S and had worked briefly as a state 

prison guard at the Martin Correctional 

Institution. 

The Government of Saudi Arabia reported 

that Mr Mateen had travelled to 

that country twice to make a religious 

pilgrimage, in March 2011 for 10 days 

and in March 2012 for eight days. 

Mr Mateen’s father, Seddique Mir Mateen, 

an Afghan immigrant, told reporters 

that he knew his son had strong anti-gay 

views but had no inkling of what was to 

come. “If I knew one per cent about what 

he was doing, I would have called the 

FBI,” the elder Mr Mateen said. “He went 

against my principles as a father and as 

a US citizen.”

Mum speaks of heartbreak as 

daughter turns 18 in captivity 

The mother of a missing schoolgirl 

snatched by Nigerian terrorist group Boko 

Haram two years ago has spoken out 

about the lack of international attention 

given to the situation in her country during 

a conference held in Washinton, USA. 

‘Mary,’ the name she goes by for security 

purposes, is the first parent of the 

200 kidnapped girls to address an audience 

outside Nigeria about the horrific 

situation in the country. 

The girls were abducted on 14th April, 

2014. Some girls managed to escape a 

few months later, but most of them remain 

missing. 

Mary joined Elijah Brown, executive 

vice president of the 21st Century Wilberforce 

Institute in a panel debate to publicise 

the continuing attempts to find the 

girls. 

Boko Haram is, according to Brown, 

“the most lethal terrorist organisation in 

the world in terms of numbers killed,” – 

even when placed against the actions of 

Islamic State/Daesh, al-Qaeda and the 

Fulani militants of Nigeria. 

“What is unfolding in northern and 

central Nigeria is one of the worst, most 

neglected humanitarian crises in the 

world,” said Brown. “Millions affected, 

thousands slaughtered, insecurity rampant, 

children ravaged by malnutrition, 

schools closed, houses of worship destroyed, 

and entire communities burned 

to the ground, and yet it is neglected.” 

Mary shared the torment the girls and 

their families endured at the hands of 

Boko Haram, speaking of the night the 

girls were abducted. 

Her daughter, who was 16 when she 

was kidnapped, turned 18 on 8th June, 

the day before the conference. 

Although the militant group tried to 

force the girls to abandon their Christian 

faith and convert to Islam, many of them 

refused, including 19-year-old Amina Ali 

Nkeki, who was found in May. 

“Those that stick to their faith of Christianity 

said that they will not turn their 

back on their God,” said Mary. “No matter 

sunshine, rainfall or under the shade, 

(God) is there with them. That is what 

(Amina) said.” 

Mary mentioned that the global community 

has the ability to take the initiative 

to help bring back the girls. 

“We really need your prayers,” said 

Mary. “If our girls will be found, you will 

help us also to rescue the lives of the 

dying mothers and we have many parents 

on their sickbed. 

“Some are psychologically affected, 

some have spinal cord problems – they 

cannot even stand or walk. (But) the Lord 

Second Canadian 

captive murdered by 

Filipino terror group 

Almighty is on the throne. He will see us 

through and one day we will all rejoice 

and be glad in it.” 

Another of the conference panellists 

was Becky Gadzama, co-founder of the 

Education Must Continue Initiative. This 

group was helping support the girls of 

Nigeria, saying that when many of the 

girls came to her, their education was 

poor. They had been led to believe by 

terrorists that girls could not go to school 

and if they did, the terrorists would find 

them and punish them. 

“We said to them that education is 

going to be in their lives,” said Gadzama. 

“Education opens up people’s hearts and 

LOURDES 

Mary - with her features covered 

for security reasons - pictured 

with Elijah Brown 

makes them realise that (they) have rights. 

We can exist regardless of our creed or 

our religious background.” 

She asked: “If you do not take care of 

the youth, who will take care of their 

future?” 

“The hope is in the hands of the youth, 

the hope is in the hands of the children, 

the hope is in the hands of the girls,” 

concluded Gadzama. 

The Nigerian Government has admitted 

to being no nearer finding the missing 

girls, despite Boko Haram being pushed 

back from much of its territory by a military 

force, including troops from Nigeria, 

Niger, Chad and Sierra Leone. 

Princess fraud 

trial nears end 

The final defence arguments have been 

heard in the case brought against Spain’s 

Princess Cristina for tax fraud. 

The hearing also includes her husband 

and 15 others charged over an alleged 

scheme to defraud millions in public 

contracts for sports events and 

conferences. 

Cristina's lawyer is expected to argue 

that she did not commit any crimes. 

A lawyer for an anti-corruption group 

wants the sister of King Felipe VI to be 

jailed for eight years. 

Prosecutors are seeking a 19-year prison 

sentence for Cristina’s husband, Inaki 

Urdangarin, an Olympic handball medallist 

turned entrepreneur. 

A prosecutor and a state lawyer representing 

Spanish tax authorities have said 

officials agreed she committed no crimes 

and should face at most an administrative 

fine for tax evasion. 

A panel of judges could take weeks or 

months to issue its verdicts. 

New killing linked to 

religious fanatics 

A Hindu monastery worker in Bangladesh 

has been hacked to death in what police 

believe is the fourth killing in a week by 

Islamists attacking minority groups in 

the Muslim nation . 

Nitya Ranjan Pandey, 60, a volunteer 

at a Hindu monastery for 40 years, “was 

found lying in a pool of blood,” district 

police chief Alamgir Kabir said. There 

were no witnesses to the attack. 

The latest death comes after the police 

launched a crackdown against militant 

religious groups after a wave of killings. 

In the past week an elderly Hindu priest 

and a Christian shopkeeper were hacked 

to death, and the Muslim wife of a counter-terrorism 

police official was also killed. 

More than 30 people in Bangladesh, 

including members of religious minorities, 

liberal bloggers and academics, have 

been murdered since February last year. 

The Government says the killings are 

the work of homegrown militant groups 

Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen and Ansarullah 

Bangla Team and provide cover for perpetrators 

of religious hate crimes. 

Philippine officials have confirmed the 

death of a Canadian man held captive 

by Islamist militants for nine months. 

Robert Hall was beheaded by Abu 

Sayyaf militants after their demands for 

a large ransom were not met. He is the 

second Canadian to be murdered by the 

group in recent months 

Mr Hall was abducted from a marina 

last September with another Canadian, 

a Norwegian and a Filipino. The other 

Canadian, former mining executive John 

Ridsdel, was beheaded in April. 

Presidential spokesman Herminio Coloma 

condemned “the brutal and senseless 

murder” of Mr Hall. He had been held 

in the jungle in southern Sulu province. 

The government has vowed to end the 

militants’ “reign of terror”. 

Mr Coloma said: “This latest heinous 

crime serves to strengthen our Government’s 

resolve to put an end to this reign 

of terror and banditry.” 

A militant video obtained by Philippine 

police officials showed Mr Hall in an orange 

shirt kneeling in front of a black Islamic 

State-style flag before he was killed 

in a jungle area. 

An Abu Sayyaf deadline for the payment 

of a large ransom passed on Monday and 

police later found the severed head of a 

Caucasian man outside a Roman Catholic 

cathedral in Sulu province’s main Jolo 

town. 

In Ottawa, Canadian prime minister 

Justin Trudeau said his country was horrified 

by the crime, and said that the 

Canadian Government was working with 

Philippine authorities to confirm his 

death.He reaffirmed Canada’s refusal to 

pay ransoms. “The Government of Canada 

will not and cannot pay ransoms for 

hostages to terrorist groups, as doing so 

would endanger the lives of more Canadians,” 

Mr Trudeau said in a statement. 

“We are more committed than ever to 

working with the Government of the 

Philippines and international partners 

to pursue those responsible for these 

heinous acts and bring them to justice, 

however long it takes.” 

He recently urged leaders of other 

members of the G7 to reiterate their opposition 

to paying ransoms. 

After being abducted from the marina 

on southern Samal Island last September, 

the hostages were taken by boat to Sulu, 

where Abu Sayyaf has held hostages for 

years in mountainous jungle camps. 

Mr Ridsdel was beheaded on 25th April 

after a ransom demand of 300 million 

pesos (£4.5 million) was not paid. 

In an Abu Sayyaf video posted after 

Mr Ridsdel’s death, Mr Hall and the two 

other hostages, Norwegian Kjartan 

Sekkingstad and Filipino woman Marites 

Flor, pleaded to Canadian and Philippine 

officials to negotiate their release. 

“We live like this every day, go to bed 

like this,” Mr Hall said, raising his arms 

to show he was handcuffed. “We have a 

hundred people heavily armed around 

us all the time that dictate to us and talk 

to us like children. We’ve been humiliated 

in every way possible. One of us has already 

been murdered.” 

Mr Hall spoke later in the video for a 

second time, sounding resigned to a tragic 

fate. 

“I would also like to thank my family 

for the effort they put in – my family and 

friends for the effort they put in - to get 

me out of here. I know you did everything 

you can, and I truly appreciate it. I’m 

sorry I got you in this mess,’ he said. 

Mr Trudeau extended his “heartfelt 

condolences“ to Mr Hall’s relatives and 

friends.

Ready to serve: Fr 

Richard sets up base 

outside St Patrick and 

St Brigid Church in 

Cooranbong 

Inside, he has all the 

comfort he needs – 

albeit with space at a 

premium . “The 

concept of having 

priests moving around 

to rural and remote 

communities is not a 

new one,” he says, “ and 

in early settlement days 

priests would often 

travel on horseback or 

by foot to reach isolated 

communities... this is 

just the same, just we 

have wheels!”

Altar 

Fortress of the faith 

(above) Ceiling painting of the Marble Hall of Melk Abbey by Paul Troger (1731) 

and the architectural painting by Gaetano Fanti. The ceiling painting shows 

Pallas Athena on a chariot drawn by lions as a symbol of wisdom and 

moderation. Hercules is to her left, symbolising the force necessary to conquer 

the three-headed hound of hell, night, and sin. Both Pallas Athena and Hercules 

are disguised references to Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI

Questions and answers... with Fr Francis Doyle 

Q. As a cradle Catholic (and a survivor 

of 12 years of Catholic schools), I am 

fairly rigid — not only in my Catholic 

beliefs but also in the etiquette of the 

Mass. So I was quite shocked last 

Sunday when our parish priest told the 

congregation at the start of the 5pm 

Mass that he would be shortening the 

Mass so that he could make the 

6:30pm performance of the play 

Wicked at a local theatre. He began the 

Mass two or three minutes early, and 

his homily was less than five minutes. 

Also, he did not recite the Nicene Creed 

but instead recited a shorter prayer 

and then jumped right into the 

petitions. 

I feel sort of cheated and would like 

to know whether this is acceptable. 

Does it really count as a Sunday Mass 

when we did not recite the profession 

of faith? 

A. Not to worry. It did ‘count’ as a 

Sunday Mass. But just a couple of 

observations: it’s never a good idea to 

start a Sunday Mass early. Many people 

seem programmed to arrive precisely at 

the hour scheduled (and some, a few 

minutes later). 

Next, the length of the homily is not 

regulated by law. There’s a lot to be said 

for a five-minute talk – so long as it 

relates the Scripture to the daily life of 

the worshippers. 

As for the creed, the Apostles’ Creed is 

specified as an acceptable alternative to 

the Nicene Creed. It is also considerably 

shorter and, in my mind, easier to 

understand. So that, no doubt, was the 

option taken by your parish priest. 

And, finally, the phrase ‘too much 

information’ comes to mind. Did the 

congregation really need to know that 

the priest was rushing to make the 

opening curtain? 

Q. I have a question with regard to the 

movie Fifty Shades of Grey. Is it a 

mortal sin to see that movie? Also, 

does the Church still rate movies, as it 

did in the past? And if so, where are 

those ratings listed? 

A. I have not seen the movie Fifty 

Shades of Grey, nor do I have any 

intention (or desire) of seeing it. So I am 

limited to telling you what has been 

said by people whose opinions I value 

who have watched the film. 

The Religious Alliance Against 

Pornography is an interfaith group that 

includes leaders from a wide range of 

religions – Protestant, Roman Catholic, 

Orthodox, Jewish and Muslim. They 

have said that the theme of the movie 

“is that bondage, dominance and 

sadomasochism are normal and 

pleasurable.” 

The group went on to observe that 

“the contrast between the message of 

Fifty Shades of Grey and God’s design 

for self-giving and self-sacrificing love, 

marriage and sexual intimacy could not 

be greater. The books and the movie 

undermine everything that we believe 

Like us on facebook - search Catholic Universe Newspaper 

Nothing wrong with a short service – 

but notorious film could be mortal sin 

as members of the faith community.” 

Catholic News Service said in a 

review that the movie “features a 

modern-day Marquis de Sade as its 

male protagonist” and contains 

“excessive sexual content, including 

graphic deviant behaviour and 

nonmarital sexual activity with much 

nudity.” 

As to whether seeing the movie 

constitutes a mortal sin, that depends 

to some extent on the person’s motive 

for seeing it. If the purpose is a prurient 

desire for sexual gratification, it very 

well could be a mortal sin. For purposes 

of review, a mortal sin requires serious 

matter, sufficient reflection and full 

consent of the will. 

My advice would be this: If the film 

could prove to be morally troublesome, 

why risk seeing it — especially if, as it 

seems, it is so bereft of any redeeming 

social value? 

As to your question regarding movie 

reviews, Catholic News Service 

regularly reviews feature films against 

the background of the Church’s 

teaching and values. This important 

resource is available in many Catholic 

newspapers, as well as by Googling 

‘Catholic movie reviews’. 

There is no rule on the duration of 

Mass - but Fr Doyle wouldn’t advise 

the priest tells parishioners why he’s 

making this week’s a bit shorter! 

Q. I have read countless stories of 

those abused sexually by priests. I was 

abused by a priest who also drugged 

me. I took my faith seriously then, and 

I still do. I think there should be a way 

to connect with victims who love the 

Church despite what happened. But 

most victims’ groups I have read about 

seem to heal by hating the Church. Do 

you have any advice? 

A. As you indicate, many victims do 

bear deep anger toward the aggressor, 

extend that resentment to the Church 

as a whole and carry it for the rest of 

their lives. I understand that. I can’t 

even begin to imagine how it must feel 

to have trusted someone you 

considered a visible representative of 

God in your life – and to have had that 

trust so violated. It doesn’t surprise me 

that, in the wake of this, a person could 

lose faith in the Church (or even in God) 

and find that faith difficult to regain. 

But there are other victims such as 

yourself who are able to make 

distinctions, to separate in their minds 

the offender from the Church. They 

realise how far that offending priest 

strayed from what he was ordained to 

do: to image the compassion of Jesus, 

especially to the vulnerable. 

These victims still love the Church; 

they want simply to be heard, to be 

healed and to be made whole – and 

they desire deeply to continue to be 

nourished by the Church’s services and 

its sacraments. 

Fortunately, there are some dioceses 

where retreats are offered specifically 

for those who were sexually abused by 

representatives of the Church. There 

you would find, I’m sure, others who 

feel the way you do and are able to 

support you by sharing both their 

stories and their faith. 

Perhaps you might inquire from your 

diocese (specifically, from the victims 

assistance co-ordinator) whether such 

opportunities might be available 

nearby. 

Q. Our parish priest recently left the 

priesthood, and now he is advertising 

on the internet that he is available to 

perform weddings or funerals 

(including weddings of gay/lesbian 

couples.) The Catholic priest who 

married us has also left the priesthood 

and is now a Presbyterian minister. 

Both of these men are quick to 

proclaim openly that they used to be 

Catholic priests. 

My question is this: How does a faithful 

Catholic treat and respond to these 

men now? I am appalled at their 

behaviour and wonder what we are 

doing wrong that so many men are 

leaving the priesthood. 

A. How you should treat these two 

men is how you should treat everyone: 

with kindness. No-one knows the 

struggles they may have endured – both 

in their years of active ministry and in 

their decisions to resign. 

I would say: be nice to them and leave 

any judgment to God. At the same time, 

I would be wary of any religious services 

offered by your former priest. Having 

resigned from Catholic priestly ministry, 

he no longer has faculties from the 

diocese, which means that he has no 

authorisation to celebrate Mass or to 

officiate at Catholic wedding or funerals. 

As a result, Catholics would not fulfil 

their Sunday obligation by attending his 

service. I would even wonder whether 

his marriage ceremonies are valid, since 

most jurisdictions authorise clergy to 

officiate at weddings only if they are in 

good standing with a religious body. 

And do not worry about ‘so many men’ 

leaving the clergy: this happens rarely 

nowadays, compared with the ’60s/70s. 

Canada losing its way over illogical suicide Bill 

Canadian courts and 

politics are using 

tortuous logic to force 

euthanasia through, 

says Right To Life 

On 9th and 11th June, assisted suicide 

became legal in two overseas territories. 

The first was Canada, and the second 

was the US state of California. 

In both cases, the means of 

introducing assisted suicide was 

profoundly undemocratic, and the 

threat to the rights and welfare of the 

vulnerable is now profound. Looking at 

Canada, we see this most particularly. 

The beginning of the removal of 

important right-to-life protections in 

Canada began early last year, when 

their Supreme Court declared the 

Canadian Criminal Code’s prohibition 

of assisted suicide to be a violation of 

their constitutional Charter of 

Fundamental Rights and Freedoms in 

Carter v Canada (Attorney General). In 

a ruling of the most amazing absurdity, 

the Canadian Court actually argued 

that to forbid assisting someone in their 

own suicide is actually a violation of 

their right to life, saying: “The right to 

life is engaged where the law or state 

action imposes death or an increased 

risk of death on a person, either directly 

or indirectly. Here, the prohibition 

deprives some individuals of life, as it 

has the effect of forcing some 

individuals to take their own lives 

prematurely, for fear that they would be 

incapable of doing so when they 

reached the point where suffering was 

intolerable.” 

The judges here are actually arguing 

that by not allowing someone to 

contract someone else to kill them, the 

Government is ‘forcing’ them to kill 

themselves. A more ridiculous example 

of tortured illogic can scarcely be 

imagined, but the court went further in 

their irrationality to declare that a ban 

on assisted suicide also violated the 

rights to liberty and security of the 

person. They argued that: “An 

individual’s response to a grievous and 

irremediable medical condition is a 

matter critical to their dignity and 

autonomy. 

“The prohibition denies people in 

this situation the right to make 

decisions concerning their bodily 

integrity and medical care and thus 

trenches on their liberty. And by leaving 

them to endure intolerable suffering, it 

impinges on their security of the 

person.” 

No consideration in these sections 

was given to how the liberty of an 

individual has to be limited by the 

effect that enabling them to make 

certain ‘choices’ has on the welfare of 

(particularly vulnerable) others. Let 

alone that killing a patient does not 

constitute ‘medical care’ by any 

meaningful definition, or that allowing 

a patient to get someone else to kill 

them is less a decision concerning their 

bodily integrity than it is a decision to 

violate their bodily integrity. 

Nor indeed was there any evidence 

that the judges had properly 

appreciated the ability of palliative care 

to remove intolerable physical 

suffering. 

Nonetheless, on the basis of these illconsidered 

and ludicrous arguments, 

the Supreme Court of Canada overruled 

the past actions of the Canadian 

Parliament and struck down the 

provisions of the Criminal Code that 

forbade assisted suicide. In doing so, 

they engaged in ‘judicial activism’, 

usurping the role of the Canadian 

House of Commons and Senate to 

propose, consider and pass legislation. 

The only consideration they gave to 

elected politicians was to delay the full 

effect of their decision for a year so as to 

allow Parliament time to draft a legal 

structure to regulate the new situation 

they were imposing. 

This should have prompted 

Canadian Parliamentarians to invoke 

the ‘Notwithstanding Clause’ of the 

Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which 

would have allowed them to over-ride 

the Supreme Court decision. 

Unfortunately, the decision was passed 

in an election year, and the 

Conservative Government of Stephen 

Harper did not want to provoke the 

electorate by taking an extraordinary 

action that would have been 

unpopular. This led them to simply 

ignore the issue in an act of selfishly 

irresponsible and craven cowardice, 

until they were voted out of office 

anyway later in 2015. 

The new Liberal Government of 

Justin Trudeau, sympathetic to 

legalising assisted suicide, took up the 

issue by proposing legislation that 

would regulate it, and asked for a four 

month extension from the Supreme 

Court. That was granted, and a 

Parliamentary committee was set up to 

draft the details of the new law. Some of 

the proposals of this Committee are 

horrifying, including as they do the 

extension of a ‘right to die’ to ‘mature 

minors’ and the mentally ill, as well as 

allowing ‘advance consent’ for assisted 

suicide for patients with degenerative 

disorders. Thankfully, these ideas are 

not, at least yet, provisions of the Bill as 

it has been finalised in its passage 

through the House of Commons. 

Regardless, C-14 is still a bad Bill. 

Even in its more moderate form, it has 

the potential to violate the rights and 

dignity of vulnerable Canadians, and 

may even be made worse in the 

Canadian Senate. 

In the next RTL column, we will 

discuss the dangers of this harmful 

legislation.

Mary Strand Trust: Desperate family in urgent need of our help 

Earlier this week, we received one of 

the most distressing appeals we have 

seen in recent years. 

Marta is mother to six children, four 

of whom are still financially dependent 

on her. Three years ago she was forced 

to move 150 miles from her home 

because of serious domestic violence 

perpetrated on her and the children by 

her husband. 

Marta began to suffer health 

problems at the beginning of this year 

and the situation has deteriorated in 

the past two months and as a result she 

has had two stays in hospital. She was 

expected to be discharged last week 

but when the children were told that 

she would not be able to come home 

yet, the youngest, in a fit of temper and 

fear, set fire to his bedroom. 

Fortunately, there was no damage to 

the rest of the house but the bedroom 

was completely destroyed. 

The family has been supported by a 

local Catholic charity since they moved 

into the area and has been provided 

with emergency assistance when 

necessary and also food parcels. 

Following the fire, the charity 

contacted social services to offer help 

and were then told that the younger 

children’s school had had concerns 

The charity of The Universe 

Catholic weekly since 1930 

The Mary 

Strand 

Trust 

about them for some time and had 

reported these concerns to the 

authorities. A social worker visited the 

home after the fire and was appalled by 

what she found. She gave the elder two 

daughters and family friends a week to 

clean up the house and make it fit for 

the other children to live in: the charity 

also offered to help and tell us that they 

have never before seen such poor 

living conditions. On their occasional 

visits to the home, they had only seen 

the living room, which was poorly 

furnished but reasonably clean, but 

they tell us that when they saw the rest 

of the house they were horrified by its 

condition and also by the fact that the 

only hot water available in the house 

was in an upstairs shower. Suffice to 

Priests wait for the start of the precession for the entry of the new 

custodian of the Catholic Church’s properties in the Holy Land, in 

Jerusalem's Old City. Italian Franciscan priest Rev. Francesco Patton 

replaced Pierbattista Pizzaballa in the ceremony, which attracted 

several hundred people. Photo: Ariel Schalit) 

say they had to clean the whole house 

from top to bottom and spent many 

hours in the launderette, washing the 

children’s clothes, at least the ones 

which didn’t have to be thrown away. 

They then provided new bedding for 

each bed, towels and various cleaning 

products. 

It has been made abundantly clear to 

the two older, non-dependent, children 

that if the house is not kept in 

reasonable order from now on, there is 

a very real danger that their brothers 

and sisters will have to be taken into 

care for their own safety and wellbeing. 

Sadly, Marta’s health has worsened 

dramatically in the last few days and 

she now faces major surgery. 

This is clearly a very testing time for 

all the family and the younger children 

in particular are very distressed. 

However, the charity will maintain 

their support for them, and for Marta 

when she is eventually discharged 

from hospital, and ensure that the 

previous conditions in the home do 

not recur. 

In the meantime, they have asked if 

we can provide a relatively small grant 

to enable them to purchase some 

much-needed school uniforms, 

underwear and pyjamas for the 

younger children as much of what they 

did have had to be thrown away. 

The furniture and bed in the fire 

damaged room also needs to be 

replaced. The charity has no funding 

themselves and would be most grateful 

for our support. 

n Many diocesan pilgrimages to 

Lourdes are taking place around this 

time and we would ask that you keep 

all the pilgrims in your prayers, that 

they may have safe journeys to this 

much-loved shrine and find the peace 

and spiritual healing that they seek. 

Please also remember all those 

volunteers, many of them young 

people, who give selflessly of their 

time: without their help, these 

pilgrimages would not be possible.

Sunday homily 

Zech. 12:10-11; 13:1 

and Lk. 9:18-24 

Who is Jesus? The episode in today’s 

Gospel marks an important stage in the 

development of the disciples’ 

understanding. They had listened to his 

preaching and had witnessed a number 

of his miracles, the latest being the 

feeding of the 5,000 with five fish and 

two barley loaves. Now he puts them on 

the spot. 

He asks them what people say about 

him and then hones in on the most 

important question: “But who do you 

say that I am?”As for the people, some 

thought he was John the Baptist come 

back to life, others that he was the 

prophet Elijah who was expected to 

return to Earth to prepare the way for 

the Messiah. But as for the disciples it 

was Peter, acting as spokesman who 

confessed their faith in Jesus as the 

Messiah, “You are the Christ (the 

Anointed One) of God.” Whereas the 

people saw Jesus merely as a prophet, 

the faith of the disciples went further in 

acknowledging Jesus as the Christ. 

Having received this confession of 

faith, Jesus immediately goes on to tell 

them what sort of Christ he is, in case 

they had the wrong expectations of 

him. Contrary to those popular views 

that the Messiah (Christ) would be a 

great liberator who would set them free 

from Roman occupation, the Christ 

they had acknowledged would be one 

who would be rejected and killed. 

But on the third day he would rise 

again which meant they would first 

have to see the suffering Christ before 

then seeing him as the glorious Christ. 

For this Messiah the way to glory had to 

be through the way of the Cross, in 

order that he might save us. 

This has important consequences 

for his disciples. If Christ our master 

willingly endured the path of suffering 

then we, who follow him as his 

disciples, must also pass along the way 

of suffering. There is just no other way. 

Anyone who believes in Christ and 

enters the waters of baptism willingly 

accepts the Cross – to embrace Christ 

means nothing less than embracing the 

Cross. 

Today’s readings, therefore, teach us 

some important lessons about growing 

in our relationship with Christ. The key 

which unlocks the gate to the intimate 

knowledge of Christ is prayer. We notice 

how, in the gospel passage, Peter’s 

confession of faith occurred in the 

context of prayer. We see Jesus himself 

at prayer, surrounded by his disciples. 

We too know, and believe, in our hearts 

that Jesus is truly the Christ and Lord. 

However, if want our faith in Jesus to 

move from our head to our heart, then 

we must be willing to spend time with 

him in prayer. A courting couple, for 

example, would make it a priority to 

spend time together regularly, so as to 

get to know each other better. When we 

make the time to be available to Jesus 

in prayer, he reveals himself ever more 

profoundly to us. 

Our knowledge of Jesus must 

necessarily include his passion and 

death. The prophet Zechariah had 

foretold the crucifixion of Jesus, “They 

shall look on the one whom they have 

pierced; they shall mourn as for an only 

son.” In our prayer, therefore, we will do 

well to gaze on the crucifix. Indeed, 

many saints down the centuries have 

used the Passion of Christ as the subject 

of their meditation. The crucifix thus 

becomes the way by which we come to 

know Christ. 

From the suffering of Christ, we move 

to consider our own sufferings. Praying 

before the crucifix, we receive the 

strength to accept these with love as 

disciples of Christ. Our crosses are of 

two types: the first consists of the 

weakness and handicaps that we are 

born with or acquire subsequently, be 

they physical, emotional or spiritual. 

They can be, for example, congenital 

illness, defects of character such as rash 

temper, sexual indulgence, alcoholism, 

drugs, gambling. These weaknesses 

cause us to trip and fall into sin. 

The second type of cross consists of 

the painful events that happen to us: 

bereavement, relationship break-up, an 

experience of a deep hurt or the loss of 

a job. Whatever it may be, when we 

accept our cross with love and unite our 

sufferings with those of Jesus, we 

become very pleasing to the Lord. Not 

only does he give us the strength to bear 

the cross, but he even carries it for us.” 

“Come to me, all you who labour and 

are burdened and I will give your rest.” 

(Mt.11:28) Jesus is always true to his 

word. The cross is the gateway to glory.

It’s all go for pupils at Cranmore 

Cranmore School, Surrey, ended last 

half-term in a hive of activity. 

A cake sale organised around a fabulous 

Olympic theme saw much-needed funds 

raised for CAFOD. The cakes on sale looked 

glorious (see left). 

Meanwhile, on the sporting front the school 

found success on two very different fields. 

First, its winter sports stars from both the A 

and B ski squads triumphed in the area 

schools’ dual slalom skiing competition at 

the dry downhill slope at Sandown. Epic 

Olympiad Eddie the Eagle Edwards was on 

hand to make the presentations (pictured 

top left). 

Then a champion of the summer sport took 

over, as George ‘T’ helped the U10 A cricket 

team thrash St George’s College, Weybridge. 

In reply to Cranmore’s 124 for 6 off 20 overs 

St George’s were skittled out for 20, with 

George taking seven wickets. He is pictured 

above with a cricket ball which was 

presented to him in assembly.

NOVENA 

The magazine of Catholic devotions 

A Catholic devotion is a gift (total or partial) of 

oneself, or one’s activities to God. It is a 

willingness and desire to dedicate oneself to serve 

God; either in terms of prayers or in terms of a 

set of pious acts such as the adoration of God or 

the veneration of the saints or the Virgin Mary. 

Common examples of Catholic devotions 

include the Rosary, the Stations of the Cross, the 

Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Holy Face of Jesus, the 

various scapulars, the Immaculate Heart of Mary, 

Our Lady of Guadalupe, Seven Sorrows of Mary, 

Novenas to various saints, pilgrimages and 

devotions to the Blessed Sacrament, and the 

veneration of saintly images, etc. 

A 56 page A4 colour publication released twice a 

year during Spring and Autumn. It is an 

excellent keepsake or a perfect gift to a friend.

Families need to 

take responsibility 

over vocations 

I have read with interest Joseph Kelly’s 

article in the Universe (3rd June, 2016). 

I write as an old priest/friar, in my 78th 

year. 

I have been to about 100 churches in 

the past ten years in various parts of the 

country, appealing for money to train 

young men for the priesthood in 

Nigeria and South Korea. The response 

has been generous for which I say 

thank you. I’d like to share some of 

what I have come across in a Church 

that is experiencing a shortage of 

priests, amalgamation of parishes and 

the closure of churches. 

• Elderly priests, some in their 70s 

and 80s, trying to serve two, three or 

four parishes/churches. 

• Opposition to merging parishes or 

closing churches. 

• Criticism of bishops and religious 

superiors – dare I say it, but in some 

instances abuse – for not providing 

priests to meet parishioners needs. 

• Priests who can’t wait to retire, who 

are worn out and are expected to take 

on a second or third parish in their 

declining years. 

• In practice most keep serving 

beyond retirement age out of love for 

the Church and also because there is 

no-one to replace them. 

• People, particularly mothers who do 

not want their sons – not my son – to be 

priests but expect the bishop or 

religious superior to find a priest for 

their parish. 

• Elderly congregations for the most 

part with very few teenagers. 

• Parishes established 50, 100 years 

ago and more and yet have never had a 

vocation or maybe only one or two in 

all that time. 

• Families from whom there has been 

no vocation to priesthood, sisterhood 

or brotherhood at all. 

Some priests with small 

congregations who are struggling 

financially and cannot make ends meet. 

I have met some wonderful priests 

and committed people who are 

struggling in difficult circumstances. 

Take this recent episode: Fr ‘A’ was 

given a second parish before Christmas. 

Both parishes insisted on a midnight 

Mass in their church. He tossed a coin 

and had to endure abuse from the one 

that missed out. 

Fr ‘B’ got a second parish, but both 

parishes had had an 11am Mass for 

many years. He had to make changes to 

the times and incurred abuse. 

I have met priests with heart 

problems, spinal problems, arthritis, 

poor hearing, one who celebrates Mass 

in a wheelchair, etc. Mention of 

retirement brings comments like, ‘you 

are young yet,’ ‘what will WE do?’ 

Joe Kelly talked in his article about 

plenty of priests to say Mass, to supply 

and to cover. That is not my experience. 

A few places have retired priests 

available but most of the country does 

not. In 80 per cent of my mission 

appeals the parish priest takes a break 

during my visit, as he cannot get cover 

for a holiday. 

It is good to hear of vocations in other 

parts of the world and some come to us 

but that’s not the answer. A bishop in 

the USA who was being criticised for 

not sending priests to parishes 

remarked that if every parish had one 

ordination every ten years that would 

solve the problem. 

This sounds reasonable to me, that 

parishes take responsibility for their 

own needs ie, one ordination in ten 

years from their own community. It is 

easy to be critical when a parish has no 

priest of its own and has to share with 

other parishes. The answer lies not with 

the bishop or religious superior, it lies 

with families in the parish. 

Today we say that the Church is the 

people, not just the priest or bishop, 

this is rightly so. 

Well then, I encourage you the 

readers to take action in your own 

parishes.

City is the problem, 

not the cure 

No doubt there are good reasons to 

leave Europe just as there are for us to 

remain in the status quo. However, as is 

quite usual, Chris Woodhouse manages 

to find the worst of reasons – that the 

bankers will not leave the city of 

London even if, as he hopes, we leave 

Europe. 

In his text he calls the financial sector 

the engine room of much of our 

nation’s economy. But, in fact, they 

have been the exact opposite. Problems 

began in the late 70’s when the 

Thatcher Government removed 

financial controls and encouraged 

them to lend the nation’s money for 

financial derivatives, which benefit only 

those rich enough to gamble in millions 

and for building for the same superrich. 

As a result they chose to lend little 

or nothing for building productive 

capacity or affordable housing for the 

future. 

They were also to blame, through 

their own American sub-prime market 

gambling, for the 2008 crash. 

Whether in or out of Europe, what we 

really need is a new type of banker, less 

self-serving and more patriotic.

Tone and insults in EU 

debate is sickening 

First, I feel I must congratulate this 

paper on the fair-minded and evenhanded 

approach to the on-going 

Referendum debate. Rightly there have 

been articles for each side of this 

contentious argument and I suppose 

this is what democracy is all about. 

This week (10th June) my sympathies 

lie with your columnist Leon Spence 

and his plea to bring back decency into 

the debate. This has downgraded itself 

into a rather vitriolic and shameful 

attack on the various personalities 

concerned for each side and the toxic 

implosion in the Conservative Party, 

and really this sideshow should and 

must have a lesser resonance to the 

decision laid before us. 

I am unsure that this is how 

democracy works, in a never-ending 

tirade of rhetoric which passes for 

reasoned debate. It has not created a 

clear, insightful message to the 

electorate but instead has reached out 

to the undecided in a way that can be 

construed as deeply troubling. People 

are worried and feel alienated and 

confused by the many conflicting 

arguments placed in front of them. 

Leon Spence is right in saying that, 

whatever the outcome, the way ahead 

must be treated in a proactive and less 

contentious manner and not burdened 

with recriminations and blame. 

This leads me to Chris Whitehouse 

and I must say I found the tenor of his 

‘‘ 

There are parishes and families 

from whom there has been no 

vocation to priesthood, sisterhood 

or brotherhood at all... 

column rather strident and off-putting. 

I did not particularly like his 

denigration of other countries who, yes, 

have their problems but to label Spain 

as an economic ‘basket-case’ and his 

desire to see Poland ‘get real’ is not 

helpful or generous. 

If the electorate does vote to Remain, 

which I hope it does, these statements 

will not foster the feeling of 

rapprochement or solidarity with our 

neighbours. 

It may be argued that all this is 

actually taking place in the spirit of a 

lively and demonstrably debate but it 

has left many people rather sickened by 

its invidious and disingenuous means 

of reaching out to the general public. 

If there are conclusions to be made, it 

is that this period has played out to 

people’s fears and devalued their hopes 

and dreams for their children, 

grandchildren and the generations after 

them. I fancy our young people who 

cannot yet vote have been sadly 

disillusioned by the grown-ups’ 

behaviour, and this is a great shame 

because this was the apposite time in 

history to lead by example and perform 

a masterclass of well-reasoned 

discussion and tolerant behaviour to 

other people’s opinions and views.

Europe is no fan 

of abortion 

Anthony Hofler (letters, 3rd June) refers 

to “the abortion-supporting EU”. 

Utter nonsense. Several EU states 

have a virtual ban on abortion. Britain 

has probably the most ‘liberal’ abortion 

law in the entire EU, so if there were to 

be an EU policy or directive on the 

subject, it would almost certainly 

require a tightening-up of the law in 

Britain. 

Alan Pavelin

God cares only about 

what is in your heart 

I would like to offer a response in 

defence of Pope Francis re John 

O’Sullivan’s letter (The Catholic 

Universe, 3rd June, 2016). 

Concrete laws, those that are 

measurable such as the Sabbath every 

seventh day, do not enable us to enter 

into God’s unquantifiable eternal rest, 

except by grace: so also the law to tithe; 

giving 10 per cent is easy to adjudicate 

on but does not guarantee the giver 

having a generous heart. 

So, to highlight how easy it is to obey 

observable rules but ignore the more 

difficult ones Jesus warned: “Woe to 

you, scribes and pharisees, hypocrites! 

For you tithe mint, dill and cumin, and 

have neglected the weightier matters of 

the law: justice and mercy and faith. It 

is these you ought to have practised 

without neglecting the others. You blind 

guides! You strain out a gnat but 

swallow a camel! (Matt 23:23) 

The law of circumcision would also 

be an observable external rule but is 

only a feeble shadow of the spiritual 

grace pointed to by the metaphor that it 

is much better to have a circumcised 

heart. What sort of measurable and 

observable rule proves a heart is cut of 

its pride and excess, leaving a humble 

soul? 

The measurable laws are often seen 

as the weightier examples of the law, 

but how often do we lack in the ‘softer’ 

options, such as those gifted by grace, 

such as justice and mercy, and 

ultimately an eternal rest which God 

gives by his will. 

So we are commanded to love and 

enjoy God; a law impossible to 

complete without grace. The law to love 

God, the first commandment, is a rule 

impossible to quantify and is only 

possible to achieve by Grace. No 

amount of effort can attain joy without 

the gift of faith. Life with God, as St Paul 

writes, requires a death which is an 

unquantifiable law, a death leads to life. 

Indeed, not only death but also a 

second birth. Just as Jesus taught 

Nicodemus: “You must be born from 

above. The wind blows where it 

chooses, and you hear the sound of it, 

but you do not know where it comes 

from or where it goes. So it is with 

everyone who is born of the Spirit. (St 

John Ch. 3: 7-8) 

No observable or quantifiable rule at 

all! And so with the type of death 

required: “For through the law I died to 

the law so that I might live for God.” 

(Gal 2:9) 

Pope Francis himself (Catholic 

Universe, 3rd June) asks that our faith 

not be quantified by social or other 

sciences, ie, “Don’t turn faith into 

ideology, charity into philanthropy”. 

Faith itself is a gift of grace and no 

observable rules can work towards it 

except humility and spiritual poverty. 

No-one can legislate for loving 

kindness.

Church needs to stop 

this cruel spectacle 

May I appeal to your readers to join me 

in urging the Catholic Church to 

oppose bullfighting? 

A bullfight involves a ritual of 

prolonged, agonising torture of bulls for 

entertainment, and many thousands of 

bulls are violently abused in this way 

each year. 

The Catholic Church needs to speak 

out against this, partly because of the 

Church’s ability to exert influence in 

Catholic countries like Spain where 

bullfights take place, and partly 

because the Church is complicit in this 

cruelty. 

Many bullfights are promoted, 

enacted and watched by Catholics, 

perhaps even priests, and are staged to 

celebrate feast days of Catholic saints. 

It’s time we stopped this dreadful 

cruelty. 

Pope Francis, please show your 

concern for creation by condemning 

bullfighting and directing that your 

bishops officially proclaim your 

condemnation.

Chile comes 

out from the cold 

Clue up on culture in capital 

city Santiago 

Experimental restaurants, a sophisticated 

arts scene and a general, allround 

nod to eccentricity make 

Chile’s mountain-fringed capital one 

of the most intriguing cities in 

South America. 

Small enough to discover in a long 

weekend, Santiago is made up of several 

easily navigable neighbourhoods, 

all radiating their own special character. 

Considered a cultural heartland, 

the leafy Lastarria district offers pleasant 

pavement cafes and distinctive 

boutique hotels, many housed in the 

few colonial-style buildings spared by a 

succession of devastating earthquakes. 

Influenced by neoclassical French 

architecture, the grand Singular Santiago 

is one of the most spacious and 

atmospheric hotels in the city. Sip

coffee in an elegantly cluttered 

lounge supervised by waiters attired 

in smart waistcoats, or zip right up to 

the 21st century at the hip rooftop 

cocktail bar. 

Many museums and historical 

buildings can be found in the 16th 

century Plaza de Armas, the city’s 

main square, where old men furrow 

brows over games of chess beneath 

the shadow of the ornate 18th century 

Metropolitan Cathedral. 

But a more offbeat attraction is La 

Chascona (meaning ‘wild mane of 

hair’), the house built in the mid- 

Fifties by Nobel Prize-winning poet 

Pablo Neruda for his friend Matilde, 

who had striking curly red locks. Like 

the man himself, the property is 

wonderfully eccentric: a secret doorway 

links the dining area and bedroom, 

allowing the host to surprise 

guests or disappear for a quick nap; 

and decorations include an enormous 

pair of men’s brogues, once used by a 

shoe shop to advertise their wares to 

the illiterate. 

The poet, along with another 

friend, social activist and singer Violeta 

Parra, has also posthumously inspired 

a dinner/dance show not far 

from his house in the same Barrio 

Brujo Glacier 

Bellavista district. De Pablo a Violeta 

(depabloavioleta.com) skips, hops 

and strums through the cultural history 

of Chile, exploring dance, music, 

food and wine from different regions. 

Stick around afterwards to enjoy a 

limitless bar, as folklore bands do 

their best to lift the roof on one of the 

area’s typical 100-year-old houses. 

Doubles at the Singular Santiago 

(www.thesingular.com) cost from 

£198 per night with breakfast. 

Get Your Guide 

(www.getyourguide.com) offer 

tickets to De Pablo a Violeta with 

hotel pick-up and drop-off 

from £68pp. 

Horse ride across the 

Patagonian steppes 

Patagonia’s vast, windswept steppes 

and jagged granite mountains are a 

playground for outdoor enthusiasts. 

But softer souls can also enjoy the environment, 

without having to pitch a 

tent or set up a portaledge. 

The town of Puerto Natales, close 

to the popular Torres del Paine National 

Park, benefits from several upmarket 

and ambitious design hotels. 

The Singular Patagonia (sister to 

their Santiago property) is set within 

the walls of a former early 20th-century

FRIDAY 17.06.16 

u • TRAVEL 03 

Take a balloon ride above the 

Atacama Desert 

Stretching more than 4,000km, Chile spans extremes of temperature and 

topography. In the north lies the Atacama Desert, one of the driest places 

on Earth, where surreal rock formations, sky-soaring geysers and 

shimmering white salt flats have sparked a growing tourist industry. 

Most resorts are based around the town of San Pedro on a high plateau 

2,400m above sea level. At the Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa, low-lying 

cabins are set against a backdrop that flips between flaming red rocks and 

diamond-studded, starry skies as the clock turns from day to night. 

Adventurous activities bookend the day, with long lunches 

and spa treatments enjoyed in-between. Hike through the 

Dali-esque dunes of the Valley of the Moon, watch 

flamingoes settle on the Atacama Salt Flats, or study 

stars through a telescope on the hotel’s observation 

deck. This autumn, there’ll be even more action in 

the skies with the introduction of hot air balloon 

rides above the Valley of the Moon. Sunrise trips 

will start from £205 per person 

(www.balloonsoveratacama.com). 

Doubles at Alto Atacama (www.altoatacama.com) 

from £444 per night with breakfast. 

British Airways will launch a direct flight from London 

Heathrow to Santiago, Chile on 3rd January, 2017, departing four 

times per week. Flights now available at a special introductory fare of £749 

return in World Traveller (economy). Visit www.ba.com 

Sierra Dorotea, Patagonia 

Doubles at Remota 

(www.remotahotel.com) 

cost from £239 with 

breakfast. A horse ride to 

Sierra Dorotea can be 

arranged at additional cost. 

Doubles at The Singular Patagonia 

(www.thesingular.com) cost from 

£234 with breakfast. 

Cruise the southern ice fields 

Glaciers cover 2.7 per cent of Chile’s 

long, snaking surface, and dipping into 

the country’s icy fjords is made easy 

on a short four-day/three-night cruise. 

A family business for more than 

three decades, the Skorpios III navigates 

the Southern Ice Field. (Sister 

ship Skorpios II offers a slightly longer 

cruise in the Northern Ice Field.) 

Sailing from Puerto Natales, a city 

close to top tourist attraction Torres 

del Paine and one of the key access 

points to Patagonia, the Kaweskar 

voyage sidles up to the honeycomb 

ridges of Amalia Glacier, deposits 

passengers on the rocks close to 

El Brujo Glacier, and salutes a cavalcade 

of frozen behemoths along the 

Calvo Fjord. 

Atacama Desert 

The trip continues north to the 

Montanas Fjord, where multicoloured 

icebergs crack and hiss in a bay below 

Herman Glacier, and moraine-soiled 

peaks of Alcina Glacier resemble 

baked tips of a lemon meringue pie. 

Weather in the fjords is generally 

dull and rainy, but grey skies actually 

cast these icy showstoppers in their 

best light, bringing out their characteristic 

blue hues. At least, that’s 

what Captain Kochifas and his optimistic 

staff say to passengers. 

From the birdsong wake-up calls, 

to a chart illustrating global warming 

using underwear as a scale (with 

bloomers and a thong at either extreme), 

slapstick humour gently pervades 

every aspect of the journey. 

Comfortable en-suite cabins carry 90 

passengers, enough to be convivial 

without being claustrophobic, and 

food is several notches above top 

restaurant standard. 

Swoop Patagonia 

(www.swoop-patagonia.co.uk) 

offer trips on Skorpios III from 

£1,154pp cruise only, including 

meals and activities. Available 

from October to March. 

The Remota Hotel 

Patagonia 

erty has its own pier with boat trips 

operating to the fjords. 

Recalling life in the area’s historic 

estancias, where European pioneers 

made their money from sheep farming, 

the Remota’s 72 rooms line long 

corridors connected by a ‘sheep 

channel’. The roof has been shaped to 

resemble a drying rack for wool, and 

‘wind-bent’ picket fences surround 

the property. 

Aside from trekking in Torres del 

Paine (a one-hour-and-20-minute 

drive away), visitors can take a horseriding 

excursion to nearby Sierra 

Dorotea. Led by a gaucho wearing a 

traditional ‘boina’ beret and characteristically 

nonchalant expression, 

riders on hardy Criollo horses venture 

up the grassy mountainside to 

sheer drop viewpoints and forests 

burned silver by 70kph gusts. 

The experience ends in a lichendraped 

clearing, with the ritual of 

lighting a fire and drinking mate. A 

small gourd filled with herbal tea literally 

does the rounds, passed in a 

circle until the last person says ‘thank 

you’, a signal they’ve had enough.

Previously overshadowed by the attention-grabbing 

womenswear events, 

the men’s fashion weeks, which take 

place in January and June, are going 

from strength to strength – with more 

designers showing every season, 

and garnering more column inches, 

tweets and celebrity attendees in 

the process. 

Check out these stylish summer 

buys for starters... 

Backpacks that mean business 

The humble backpack has come a 

long way in recent seasons, as sporty, 

slouchy, shove-them-in-the-corner 

styles make way for polished, showme-off 

designs. 

Take your cues from Louis Vuitton 

and Hermes: look for butter-soft 

leather or suede, sleek shapes and 

as few pockets as possible – simplicity 

is key.

Orient Express 

Many of the Italian designers looked 

east for spring: Louis Vuitton and 

Valentino both sent out silk bomber 

jackets emblazoned with Chinese 

dragons and oriental emblems, while 

intricate blossom and bamboo 

prints showed up at Gucci and Dolce 

& Gabbana. 

A mint green floral suit may be a 

bit much for all but the most fashionforward 

dads, but a printed tee or 

short-sleeved shirt is your shortcut to 

the Eastern aesthetic.

Made in suede 

Aside from silk, the only outerwear 

to be seen in this season is of the 

suede variety, as seen at Belstaff and 

Bottega Veneta. 

A suede zip-up jacket with minimal 

detailing is a style classic that will last 

well beyond this season, as long as 

you stick to neutral browns and 

greys – leave black for winter.

Great Britton 

Bubbly Fern Britton arrives at our interview 

looking crisp and casual in floral 

cropped trousers, a cotton shirt and 

denim jacket. She’s wearing well for a 

woman who’s turning 60 next year. 

We’re here to discuss her sixth 

novel, The Postcard, a gentle holiday 

read featuring a TV producer mother 

suffering from post-natal depression, 

who wants to get back to her job. It 

explores her troubled childhood, difficult 

family relationships and her reluctance 

to delegate childcare. 

Britton, 58, laughs at my summing 

up of the synopsis, insisting that it isn’t 

autobiographical, but acknowledging 

her experience of life has helped make 

the novel more authentic. 

Indeed, she has experienced some 

of the things she writes about: depression, 

a fractured family – her father, 

the actor Tony Britton, left 

when she was a baby – high-profile 

TV jobs and juggling family and work. 

“You can’t help but put bits of yourself 

in the book,” she agrees, pointing 

out that in her own life, family always 

comes first, and jobs have always 

come along rather than her actively 

seeking them out. 

“You can’t have everything all the 

time. I always wanted to be at home 

because I felt no one would be able to 

do it better than me, but then I got 

flattered into a job. In lots of ways, 

work is a salvation and gives you focus 

again. And I had a fantastic nanny.” 

She has long banged the drum to 

raise awareness of depression, having 

suffered with it since she was 18. She’s 

been off anti-depressants for about 

three years now, but expects to have 

to go back on them at some point. 

“Weirdly, I’m feeling better and better,” 

she says. “You just have to have 

that insurance and think, ‘I may not 

feel like this always’. But as soon as I 

get any indication that I’m going 

downhill and starting to get depressed, 

then I shall start taking the 

tablets again. For me, it worked.” 

Now happily post-menopausal – 

HRT has worked wonders, she says – 

she is enjoying this decade more than 

some of her earlier ones. 

“My 50s have been really good. In 

my 20s, I was starting in television 

and was having a lot of fun, learning 

a lot, but had patches of depression. 

I got married when I was 31. Unfortunately 

post-natal depression got me.

“My 40s was a decade of hard work 

and I probably wasn’t quite so well 

and was taking anti-depressants. So, 

yeah, 50s? Post-menopausal. Lovely.” 

The menopause was no walk in the 

park, however. 

“I hated the menopause and am 

still on HRT. You get fog brain, confusion 

in terms of, ‘What was I doing in 

here?’ You can’t think of words, get 

into a muddle and are not able to absorb 

what you need to absorb. 

“Fatigue really sets in – and the 

hot flushes! A menopausal woman is 

never cold.” 

Did she suffer mood swings? 

“Well, my husband would say, ‘Yes!’, 

but I’d say, ‘With perfectly good reason!’” 

She’s not fazed by the prospect of 

turning 60. 

“I’ve done a bit of processing over 

the last couple of years. Getting to 30, 

40 and 50 was quite nice. This one is 

a bit like going to the dentist. You 

know you’re going to have something 

big done but the next day it will be 

fine. I think it will be all right.” 

She doubts she’ll be trying to hold 

back the years with cosmetic surgery. 

“I quite like my face. It’s got wrinkles, 

it’s got scars and I’m sprouting whiskers 

out of my chin and a big moustache, 

but apart from that, I’m fine!” 

‘‘ 

My 40s was a decade of 

hard work and I probably 

wasn’t quite so well and was 

taking anti-depressants. 

So, yeah, 50s? 

Post-menopausal. Lovely 

“I don’t worry about how I look,” 

she continues. “I know there are 

times when I look awful, but then 

again, in half an hour you can put a 

bit of make-up on, wash your hair and 

you’ll look all right again. 

“I’m not worried about getting 

older and the years slipping by. I’ve 

never lied about my age. This is how 

you’re supposed to look. You want to 

look the best you can.” 

She may be best known for her 

decade as ITV’s This Morning copresenter 

with Phillip Schofield, her 

Ready, Steady, Cook years – when 

she met her husband, chef Phil Vickery 

– and her current BBC One daytime 

antiques game show For What 

It’s Worth, but behind that smiling 

persona is one clever cookie. 

She’s a member of Mensa, cut her 

teeth as a news presenter in the 

tough newsroom environment at 

Westward Television and in her more 

recent BBC interview series Fern 

Britton Meets... coaxed Tony Blair 

into admitting that he would have invaded 

Iraq even without evidence of 

weapons of mass destruction. 

I wonder whether she gets peeved 

that the focus of interviews is so often 

on her weight and looks (it’s now 

eight years since she lost five stone, 

in part thanks to having a gastric 

band fitted), but Britton is tough – 

and she is much happier now in her 

home life, leads a healthier lifestyle, 

and isn’t pursued by paparazzi on a 

regular basis. 

She is careful to pace herself now, 

however, yet age shouldn’t be a barrier 

to work, she says. 

“Angela Rippon, Mary Berry, Gloria 

Hunniford are all working, proud of 

their age and their experience. I admire 

that,” Britton notes. 

She has been an exercise hound for 

a few years now, going to the gym, 

lifting weights, spinning classes, boxing, 

employing a personal trainer and 

embarking on epic cycle rides to raise 

money for Dr Robert Winston’s Genesis 

Research Trust, which funds 

research into conditions affecting 

women and babies. 

“I’m not addicted to exercise, but 

I’m addicted to the result,” she explains. 

“It’s given me so much more 

zest and stamina. I can keep going 

for longer but at a steadier pace. 

Emotionally, getting on a bike is 

utterly brain-cleansing.” 

She’s just celebrated her 

16th anniversary with Vickery, 

with whom she has 14- 

year-old daughter, Winnie. 

She also has three other 

children – twins Jack and 

Harry, 22, and daughter 

Grace, 19 – from her previous 

marriage to TV executive 

Clive Jones. 

She says she’s sure that 

being happy at home – they 

have houses in Buckinghamshire 

and Cornwall – 

helps keep the depression 

at bay. 

“I know that when I’m 

very tired, that’s when I feel 

the depression starting to 

come in, so I ward against 

tiredness. And for the last 

seven years, I haven’t had 

the routine of getting up 

very early and going into 

the studio, which I loved, 

but I’m not tired any 

more,” says Britton. 

“Sometimes in the afternoon 

I’ll say to Phil, ‘I’m 

going to sit down and 

watch Countdown’, and he 

says, ‘Yeah, good idea’. 

“That’s the thrill of getting 

to pensionable age.”

suspense with a deftly handled 

environmental slant, while trying to 

describe radically different ways of 

experiencing the world. It is reminiscent of the Matrix and K. A. Applegate’s 

Animorphs series, and, for the first few chapters, does read like a Young 

Adult novel with the odd curse word thrown in. However, Green’s 

psychological approach to the empathy and disconnect constantly shedding 

identities causes in its human protagonist lifts The Many Selves into an 

engaging take on established tropes.

The Private Lives Of The Tudors: 

Uncovering The Secrets Of 

Britain’s Greatest Dynasty 

by Tracy Borman 


by Hodder and Stoughton 

priced £25 (ebook £16.99) 

The glittering, jewel-encrusted private 

world of Britain’s five Tudor monarchs 

returns gloriously in these pages. 

Tracy Borman, author of an acclaimed 

biography of Thomas Cromwell, 

Henry VIII’s right-hand man, has done 

it again and produced a well-researched 

and highly readable social 

history. The now-legendary Tudor 

rulers were Henry VII, Henry VIII, 

Mary Tudor, Edward VI and Elizabeth I. 

They ruled, in succession, from 1485 

to 1603 and gained awe and respect, 

at home and abroad, through the 

deliberate opulence and blazing 

theatricality of their palaces, 

banquets, rituals and, above all, 

their clothes. Henry and his daughter, 

Elizabeth I, were the most flamboyant. 

When Elizabeth died in 1603, her 

massive wardrobe included 1,900 

amazing dresses, none of which 

survives today. Borman produces 

much fascinating personal detail 

about the temperamental monarchs 

and everyday life in their palaces. 

Cuisine was astonishingly lavish and 

sophisticated, but medical knowledge 

was not. Childbirth was hazardous 

and often fatal for mothers and babies, 

even royal ones. Toilet arrangements, 

albeit in opulent settings, were 

primitive and bad smells never far 

away. It is not surprising that the use 

of strong perfumes was a vital feature 

of royal life.

The Music Scene 

Sunlight by Nicky Byrne 

Nicky Byrne has released his debut 

solo album, the incredibly optimistic 

and cheerful Sunlight. 

Although Byrne is only 37 years old 

he has lived a very full, rewarding life 

and is blessed with both experience 

and youth. 

Most will probably know Byrne 

from his time in the successful Irish 

pop group Westlife, however it would 

be incredibly unfair to say that his 

only achievement in life is as a member 

of a boy band. Byrne has a vast 

array of accomplishments, having 

previously played football semi-professionally, 

representing the Republic 

of Ireland at several junior levels; successfully 

presenting TV and radio 

shows; and he has even showcased 

his dancing skills on BBC’s Strictly 

Come Dancing. 

Despite all of his great achievements 

and talents Byrne reveals that 

the release of his first solo album, 

Sunlight, is one of his lifelong dreams. 

‘Deep down in my heart I have always 

dreamt of one day holding my 

very ‘own’ album written and recorded 

by me in my hands with songs on 

there that people would enjoy, even 

relate to, or sing along with in their 

car, maybe even have their first dance 

at their wedding somewhere in the 

world,’ he writes in the album booklet. 

‘Now, I have that album, I have 

those songs forever! It’s stuff dreams 

are made of.’ 

Prior to his music career Byrne 

played for local football teams in his 

hometown of Dublin, Ireland, until he 

eventually joined Leeds United as a 

goalkeeper in 1995, where he was part 

of the FA Youth Cup winning squad in 

1997. Following his time at Leeds he 

played a reserve game for Scarborough 

FC and a trial game for Cambridge 

United before returning to 

Dublin, where he joined League of Ireland 

team Shelbourne, prior to moving 

to fellow League of Ireland teams 

Cobh Ramblers and St Francis FC. 

uMusic 

By Nick Benson 

His big break in the music industry 

came in 1998, when he attended an 

audition for a new Irish boy band. 

Louis Walsh, the manager of Boyzone, 

approached him to join his latest project; 

Westlife. 

Byrne joined Kian Egan, Mark Feehily, 

Shane Filan and Brian McFadden 

to form the new group. 

He saw much success with Westlife 

from their formation in 1998 until 

their split in 2012, selling over 50 million 

records worldwide and achieving 

14 UK number one singles and seven 

UK number one albums. 

However, the band, which was 

down to four members following the 

2004 departure of McFadden, split in 

2012, with their final concert held on 

23rd June in Byrne’s hometown, at 

Croke Park Stadium, Dublin. 

Although the split was said to be 

amicable, Byrne told the RTE Guide 

that arguments had been occurring 

more frequently closer to the end. 

“Probably more so in the latter 

years but that’s part of relationships, 

isn’t it?” Byrne said. “We had a laugh. 

We earned a few quid. We weren’t 

unique, but what was unique was that 

we lasted so long. I don’t know how 

we did it.” 

Byrne also told the RTE Guide 

about his love for his wife, Georgina, 

describing her as “one in a million” 

and it seems Byrne’s love for his wife 

gets stronger every year as, four 

years later, she is undoubtedly one of 

the key muses for the majority of 

tracks on his debut solo album. 

Sunlight opens up with the title 

track, Sunlight, an energy-driven, 

uplifting celebration of life, which is 

exactly what is needed for a cheerful 

summer’s day. This is followed by Explosion, 

which softly creeps in, building 

up to the climactic chorus. The 

atmospheric and slightly moody track 

has a very cinematic feel to it and 

proves that Byrne’s talent stretches 

far beyond the confines of boy band 

pop songs. 

However, Byrne pays homage to 

his boy band days in Pop Machine, a 

fun, busy, party piece in which he recalls 

a time when Westlife ruled the 

world. ‘The Westlife boys should 

enjoy Pop Machine the most!’ Byrne 

writes in the album booklet. ‘What a 

throwback that is! Great memories.’ 

As previously mentioned, it appears 

that Byrne’s wife is a huge inspiration 

for him, with romantic 

tracks such as Song for Lovers, Still 

The One and Finishing Line proving 

this point. 

Byrne reminisces the early days of 

his relationship with his teenage 

sweetheart, now wife, Georgina in the 

autobiographical and aptly titled 

Some Things Always Seem To Last. 

Meanwhile, Byrne’s hopeless romantic 

shines through in the infectiously 

cheerful Broadway Show as he 

reminisces failed romances and notes 

that “right from the start I was playing 

a part because life is a beautiful 

Broadway show.” 

Sunlight is a very impressive 

debut for the former Westlife 

star, however, it is the final 

two tracks of the album 

that are the absolute 

gems and show exactly 

the type of man Nicky 

Byrne is; the perfect 

family man. 

Byrne mentions in 

the album booklet that 

he has dreamt of a married 

couple having their 

first dance to one of his 

songs at their wedding and he 

may have found just the song with 

Thank You. The slow, thoughtful ballad 

showcases Byrne’s perfect story- 

‘‘ 

Deep down in my heart 

I have always dreamt of 

one day holding my very 

‘own’ album written and 

recorded by me in my 

hands with songs on

enjoy, even relate to,

telling, opening up describing a beautiful 

New York scene in a “cold and 

wet December”. However, it is not the 

scene setting that tugs on the heartstrings 

but the touching way in which 

he thanks his wife for all she has done 

for him and for being a part of his life. 

While Thank You is the perfect 

celebration of Byrne’s love for his 

wife, Pretty celebrates the love for 

his children. The emotive track sees 

him marvel at the wonder of his children 

and tell them, “there’s nothing 

that’s more beautiful than you.” 

Byrne’s first solo release is highly 

impressive and will fill fans with hope 

for any future releases. Although it is 

his debut as a solo artist the album 

feels incredibly polished due to Byrne 

being a veteran in the music industry 

thanks to his 14 years in Westlife. 

Sunlight is a very personal and autobiographical 

piece from Byrne, who 

lays himself out on the 10-track 

record, professing his love for his wife 

and children, looking back at various 

points of his life, including his boy 

band days, and celebrating love, life 

and happiness.

u • FOOD 10 FRIDAY 17.06.16 

What’s on your 

child’s plate? 

Just when you’d managed to get the 

kids eating their five-a-day fruit and 

veg, and cutting down on saturated 

fat, a new book is claiming that’s not 

quite the right way to go. 

A trio of experts insist that while 

vegetables are indeed good for kids, 

fruit should only be eaten in moderation 

because of its high sugar content, 

but they can eat as much cream, butter 

and cheese as they like. 

Forbidden fruit 

Chef Jonno Proudfoot, who wrote the 

book Super Food For Superchildren 

with sport and exercise scientist 

Professor Tim Noakes and paediatric 

dietitian Bridget Surtees, says: “If the 

authorities suggest five fruits and five 

vegetables are the same thing, I think 

they’ve made the rules too simple. 

‘‘ 

Five fruits is certainly 

better than five cokes, but five 

vegetable portions will be 

infinitely better. I think 

five-a-day could live 

harmoniously within this 

realm of eating, provided 

it was five veggies and an 

occasional fruit. 

u 

Food 

By Lisa Salmon 

dren, identifies three ‘golden rules’ 

for children’s eating, largely based on 

nutritional advice outlined in the authors’ 

first book, for adults, The Real 

Meal Revolution. 

The rules are simply: no added 

sugar; no refined carbs; keep it real. 

No added sugar 

It’s been known for decades that high 

sugar consumption causes dental 

problems and is a cause of obesity, 

says the book, which points out that 

sugar offers no nutritional benefit, but 

is addictive and too much over the 

long-term can lead to health problems 

including diabetes, and complications 

linked to obesity including heart disease 

and strokes. 

The World Health Organisation recommends 

a total of three to eight teaspoons 

of sugar a day for children, 

depending on age, but the book advises 

aiming for the lower end, promising 

that following the no added 

sugar rule will make an “unimaginable 

difference” to a child’s long-term 

health and wellbeing, and 

stressing: “How bad is 

sugar? To put it in 

perspective, think 

of it as cocaine for 

your kids.” 

The book divides foods into Red, Orange and Green lists, which indicate how 

often they should be eaten by children aged over three who are a healthy weight. 

Included are: 

Green 

Children can eat freely: vegetables (apart from 

potatoes), eggs, all meats, poultry, game, fish and 

shellfish, butter, double cream, hard and soft 

cheeses (for calcium), cream cheese. 

Orange 

Children should only consume in 

moderation: all whole and dried 

fruit, potatoes, grains such as rice, 

quinoa and oats, honey. 

Food traffic lights 

Red 

Children should avoid wherever practical: 

all confectionery, ice-cream, crisps, commercial 

breakfast cereals, all breads made from grains 

containing gluten, commercially-breaded or battered 

food like chicken nuggets, highly-processed sausages 

and luncheon meats, all soft drinks and fruit juices. 

Jonno Proudfoot 

“Five fruits is certainly better than 

five cokes, but five vegetable portions 

will be infinitely better. I think five-aday 

could live harmoniously within 

this realm of eating, provided it was 

five veggies and an occasional fruit.” 

And as for the long-demonised saturated 

fat, the authors insist early 

studies suggesting ‘saturated fat is 

bad’ were “flawed and contradictory”, 

pointing out that the argument saturated 

fat raises blood cholesterol concentrations 

which directly cause 

heart disease is “at best a gross oversimplification 

and at worst just plain 

wrong”, and that children need fat for 

healthy growth and development. 

Golden rules 

The book, which features plenty of 

healthy, low-sugar recipes for chil- 

No refined 

carbs 

Refined carbs are 

carbohydrates 

that have been broken 

down during food 

processing. A good example 

of a refined carb is 

flour, which is created when a grain, 

usually wheat, is finely ground. This 

removes the fibrous outer layer, 

which contains most of its vitamins 

and minerals, and the remaining glucose 

spikes blood glucose levels, says 

the book, while providing little or no 

nutritional value. 

The authors point out that if a child 

eats a bowl of sugar-coated ricebased 

cereal, for example, the refined 

carbs in the rice will break down to 

sugar too, so the child effectively eats 

a bowl of sugar. 

“This is the path to future obesity 

and ill-health, so steer clear of all refined 

carbs,” they advise. 

Keep it real 

Real, non-processed 

whole foods are the 

basis of healthy eating, 

says the book, pointing 

out that processed foods 

are packed with sugars and refined 

carbs, plus various additives 

“that really shouldn’t be passing 

through your child’s body”. 

Daunting diet 

If this new way of eating seems 

daunting, Proudfoot says introducing 

it gradually is a lot better than not 

doing it at all. 

“It would be best to dive right in, 

but there can only be benefits to removing 

even the smallest amounts of 

sugar and refined carbs from one’s 

diet,” he explains. 

And all three authors stress: “This 

is a wake-up call to today’s parents. 

We’re advising a radical shift away 

‘‘ 

The authors point out 

that if a child eats a bowl 

of sugar-coated rice-based 

cereal, for example, 

the refined carbs in the rice 

will break down to sugar 

too, so the child effectively 

eats a bowl of sugar.

produced overweight, unhealthy children 

at alarming rates in the last 

three decades.”

more than £1,000, according to research 

amongst 2,000 people. 

For many guests, the outgoings 

can start way before the big day 

itself, with the typical cost of attending 

a stag or a hen do coming to 

£58, according to a survey from 

American Express. 

Choosing the perfect gift for the 

happy couple costs £102 on average. 

A new outfit will come to £75, 

while topping it off with hair and 

beauty treatments costs another £28. 

Guests typically spend £94 travelling 

to a wedding and £74 on 

a hotel, while a further £48 is 

spent on average toasting the bride 

and groom. 

This brings the total cost for a wedding 

guest to £479 on average, according 

to the findings. 

If you’re lucky enough to be asked 

to be a bridesmaid, you can expect to 

spend £1,267, while an usher can expect 

to pay £1,127. 

In a bid to fund the cost of attending 

a wedding, 44 per cent of 

guests plan to dip into their monthly 

salary, 26 per cent will use their savings, 

while a further 22 per cent expect 

to put their wedding costs on a 

credit card. 

So if you’re planning to attend 

a wedding this summer, how can you 

keep the costs down and enjoy the 

big day without worrying about how 

it will affect your bank balance? 

Here are some tips from 

American Express: 

1 

Personal touch. If your gift 

budget is limited, consider giving 

a present that has a personal 

touch. Video compilations or framed 

photo montages can be very meaningful. 

If you’re creative, offer to 

make or design the wedding stationery 

for the happy couple as your 

gift to them. 

2 

Plan ahead. When gift lists are 

sent to guests, ensure you’re 

one of the earlier purchasers. For 

those using registers, getting in early 

can mean picking and choosing reasonable 

gifts that suit your budget, as 

opposed to being left at the end of the 

queue with only the higher budget 

items to choose from.

finance 

By Vicky Shaw 

Don’t forget points make presents 

– check how many rewards 

points you have on your credit, 

charge or store card. You may have 

enough to get a wedding gift with 

your points, which means you can 

give a gift without spending a penny. 

4 

Get renting. It’s always fun to 

have something new to wear for 

a wedding, but this can get expensive. 

Consider hiring a dress or suit 

for the weekend. Plenty of companies 

now offer designer dresses and suits 

that can be rented at a fraction of the 

price. 

5 

Use your tech. If you only need 

a ride from the station to the reception, 

consider using taxi apps instead 

of hiring a car. Don’t forget to 

cut costs by car sharing with other 

wedding guests. 

6 

If you do spend, do it wisely. 

Take advantage of vouchers 

and discounts.

How... to protect your 

garden valuables from thieves 

Now it’s summer, it’s time to really show off your garden – but it’s also a time 

when it’s particularly attractive to thieves. 

Research from Co-operative Insurance found two-thirds (66 per cent) of UK 

households have been the victim of green-fingered thieves in their gardens at 

least once. Hanging baskets, garden plants and shrubs, machinery, pots and 

even koi carp have been stolen, according to its survey of 2,000 people across 

the UK. According to Co-op claims data, the average claim related to garden 

theft now stands at £208. 

1 

Check you have adequate 

insurance cover and make sure 

you are clear on what is covered. 

Most household policies will be 

covered up to a certain amount, 

but insurers may specify that items 

should be locked in a shed, garage or 

brought into the house. 

2 

Don’t advertise to thieves. 

Lighter evenings mean all your 

expensive power tools, bikes and 

children’s toys are more visible to 

opportunist criminals, be sure to 

keep any valuable items out of sight 

and wherever possible, keep them 

locked away or indoors. 

3 

Mark your valuable items. 

If possible, tag items, such as 

patio furniture, barbecues, expensive

One of the most common 

pitfalls is making climbable 

items accessible to thieves. Items 

such as ladders and wheelie bins can 

be used by burglars to get into a 

home, therefore, it is important to 

store them where they can’t be seen 

or reached by thieves, or lock them 

up so they can’t be moved.

Growing trend in prisons 

For some time now we’ve all known 

that gardening is among the best pastimes 

for both physical and mental 

wellbeing – but it’s also being used to 

help rehabilitate prisoners and give 

them hope for the future. 

We’ve seen prisoners help construct 

gardens at major horticultural 

shows – prisoners from Leyhill won a 

gold medal at the Chelsea Flower 

Show one year – while HMP Whatton 

in Nottinghamshire recently won the 

RHS-backed Windlesham Trophy 

Competition for the seventh time for 

the best-kept prison garden in England 

and Wales. 

Another prison that is making full 

use of horticulture is HMP Send, a 

women’s prison in Surrey which, 

thanks to The Clink Charity, is helping 

rehabilitate prisoners through 

growing fruit, vegetables and flowers 

and backing up that work with recognised 

horticultural qualifications. 

Many of the 282 inmates are serving 

life or very long sentences. Up to 

u 

garden 

By Hannah Stephenson 

20 women train in the garden on a 

daily basis, 15 of whom are studying 

for a City & Guilds NVQ (level 2) in 

horticulture. Those chosen for the 

garden project are trusted prisoners 

who are nearing the end of their sentence, 

although there’s one lifer on 

the current scheme who is learning to 

drive the on-site tractor and helps 

oversee the gardening novices. 

The 4.5-acre garden complex features 

11 polytunnels and a glasshouse 

where prisoners tend everything 

from basil and French beans to Florence 

fennel, three varieties of tomatoes 

– pomodoro, marmande and 

Pink Charmer – blueberries, borage 

and butternut squash. 

There’s also a heated greenhouse 

where seeds are sown and more tender 

crops are started off. 

I visit the prison on a grim, rainy 

day and once through the strict security 

gates and imposing fencing 

topped with barbed wire, I come 

across beds of primroses, aubrieta 

and lilac, ornamental grasses, alliums 

and Japanese maples. 

More gates are unlocked to access 

the horticulture and garden complex, 

which also features fields of flowers 

that are grown and cut to put in the 

women’s dining hall and communal 

areas, plus six hives with 50,000 bees 

supplied by a local beekeeper. 

I am shown the tools they have access 

to – secateurs, rose thorn strippers, 

floristry knives, which are kept 

on secure ‘shadow boards’ to provide 

a quick inventory and identification of 

missing items, or in locked cabinets, 

where they are stored for counting 

and collection. 

Some 300 eggs are laid weekly by 

the 45 Rhode Island Red chickens, 

many of which are sent to The Clink 

restaurants at nearby HMP High 

Down and Brixton prisons. 

In the classroom, the inmates will 

learn the theory of good garden practice 

by vocational trainers before 

being sent to work. 

Prison governor Carlene Dixon 

says: “It gives them focus, normality, 

something to keep them busy and a 

sense of self worth.” 

The prison also has links with industry 

and helps them, with support from 

The Clink, when they are released. 

“The great benefit is to give them 

back their social skills. They are working 

an eight-hour day as part of a 

team. They are gaining confidence and 

are proud of what they do. Their identity 

might initially have been their 

crime or sentence. That can change 

with their achievements,” she says.

Best of the bunch – 

Patio rose 

Even if you don’t have room for a rose in your 

border, you can enjoy the fragrance and colour 

that a patio rose gives close to a seating area. 

Patio roses and floribundas are good for pots, as well 

as some compact English roses. Look for something 

with a compact habit which repeat flowers. Roses don’t 

like to share their space in pots with other plants, so plant them singly in a 

pot which is at least 40cm (16in) wide and deep and can hold around 20 

litres of compost. Use loam-based compost such as John Innes No. 3, adding 

a handful of rose food to the mix when you are planting it up. Good varieties 

include R. Nice Day, a patio climber with sweetly scented double blooms in 

salmon pink, and R. Anna Ford, a patio miniature with large trusses of 

orange blooms. Roses love sunshine and should receive sun for at least half 

the day. However, it is important that container-grown plants do not dry out 

or they will become prone to powdery mildew. 

Good enough to eat – 

Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) 

Their pretty pink pint-size lollipop flower heads are 

now blooming in my garden, which shows that 

herbs can be both decorative and delicious – 

and chives are among the easiest to grow. 

Their mildly onion-flavoured spiky stems are 

hollow and great snipped into salads or dips for 

extra texture and flavour. Plant pot-grown plants 

in a sunny spot in late spring or summer, spacing 

clumps around 15cm apart. Water them well in dry 

weather and weed around them. The clumps should 

expand rapidly so you can lift and divide them every couple of years. 

What to do this week 

1. Thin direct-sown seedlings of 

annuals and vegetables 

2. Continue to tie in new shoots 

of climbers 

3. Take semi-ripe cuttings of 

passion flower and oleander 

4. Plant out leeks, self-blanching 

celery and marrows 

5. Plant canna lilies outside 

6. If you want extra large rose 

blooms for cutting, remove 

any buds developing at the 

side of the main terminal 

bloom on each shoot 

and served by inmates (many of 

whom are on vocational courses), 

makes me hopeful that this is a positive 

step towards rehabilitation. 

So far, five prisoners have been released 

after completing the Send garden 

project. None has re-offended. 

7. Pick small gooseberries to thin 

out heavy crops, leaving 

remaining fruits well spaced out 

8. Introduce new fish to your 

pond and start feeding fish 

more often as the weather 

warms up 

9. After pruning, give shrubs a 

generous soak with liquid feed 

and cover the soil around 

them with a mulch 

10. Apply a nitrogen-rich feed to 

lawns which are looking pale 

and sparse

Rocket Science Summer Holiday 

Family Fun at 

RHS Garden Harlow Carr 

The countdown is on to six weeks of summer fun at RHS Garden Harlow Carr. 

Families can embark on an out-of-this-world adventure this summer in 

Harrogate as the northernmost RHS Garden goes intergalactic. 

Youngsters can take part in their very own space mission to Mars on a 

space-themed garden trail, enjoy stratospheric storytelling with the Garden 

Detectives, create cosmic crafts, and discover how our feathered friends have 

influenced flight and space 

exploration during 

spectacular birds-of-prey 

flying displays. 

The garden’s Treehouse is 

being transformed into a 

woodland space station, 

children can test their 

knowledge of the planets as 

they wander through a solar 

system, or let their 

imaginations run wild in a 

specially-created 6ft RHS 

space rocket. There’s also a 

chance to put their counting 

skills to the test and see 

how many ‘Tiny Tim Peakes’ 

they can find in the 

Alpine House. 

The rocket science-themed 

summer activities have 

been inspired by the RHS 

Campaign for School 

Gardening and UK Space 

Agency project, Rocket 

Science, in which 2kg of 

rocket seeds were sent to 

the International Space 

© RHS 

Station. The seeds – which spent several months in microgravity under the care 

of British European Space Agency astronaut Tim Peake – have now been 

returned to Earth and are being grown by hundreds of thousands of schoolchildren 

in a huge experiment to investigate the impact of microgravity and 

space travel on seed germination and growth. 

Liz Thwaite, Head of Site at RHS Garden Harlow Carr, said: “Thanks to Tim 

Peake and the Rocket Science campaign, all things space-related are very 

topical and extremely popular, so we wanted to give our visitors the chance to 

enjoy their very own intergalactic adventure. 

“We’ve got so many different activities on each day – plus some extra 

special events for Yorkshire Day on 1st August including cosmic welly wanging 

– so make sure you visit us more than once throughout the holidays and enjoy 

a truly out-of-this-world adventure.” 

Harlow Carr is running its own rocket seed growing experiment 

throughout the summer so visitors can find out first-hand about the ‘Rocket 

Science’ campaign. 

The summer holiday fun runs from Saturday 23rd July – Sunday 4th September 

and includes: 

Daily: ‘Space Mission to Mars’ Garden Trail 

Embark on a space mission to Mars during a daily trail around the garden. 

Find the space facts, solve puzzles and reveal the secret launch code. 

Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays: Cosmic Crafts 

Make a range of ‘rocket science’ accessories for your summer space adventure, 

from stars, sundials and comets to astronaut helmets and rocket launchers. 

Tuesdays: Intergalactic Storytelling 

Join the intergalactic, mad-capped Garden Detectives on a space exploration 

and enjoy space-themed stories. 

Thursdays: Birds-of-Prey Flying Displays – lessons from nature 

See the effects of gravity and aerodynamics up close and find out how the 

study of our feathered friends has influenced flight and space exploration 

during spectacular birds-of-prey flying displays with ‘Owl Adventures’. 

Monday 1st August: Yorkshire Day – Intergalactic Games 

Bring along a picnic and take part in Harlow Carr’s first Intergalactic Games. 

There will be a wealth of family activities throughout the morning – from 

sundial and rocket-making workshops to storytelling and face painting – 

as well as ‘It’s a Knockout’ style afternoon games starting at 1pm. The games 

will feature a space hopper race, Yorkshire teacup challenge and a cosmic 

welly wanging competition.

u • HEALTH 14 FRIDAY 17.06.16 

The daily grind 

Do you often wake up with a mysteriously 

aching jaw? Have a habit of 

clenching your face when you’re 

tense, anxious or angry? 

If so, you could be one of the world’s 

many teeth-grinders. Not entirely 

sure what that means? Sink your 

gnashers into our guide... 

uHealth 

By Ella Walker 

What is teeth grinding? 

Medically speaking, teeth grinding is 

known as ‘bruxism’, a term that covers 

conscious and involuntary grinding 

of the upper and lower 

teeth against one another, 

and clenching of the 

jaw. While grinding 

usually happens at night, and jaw 

clenching is more common during the 

day, there are no hard and fast rules. 

Who does it affect? 

According to the NHS, roughly six 

million people in the UK are affected 

by teeth grinding, with most cases 

arising in people aged 25 to 44. That’s 

not to say people outside this 

bracket don’t grind their 

teeth, the condition can 

affect everyone, even 

small children. However, 

it’s a problem 

that can come and 

go, rather than 

stubbornly stick 

around indefinitely. 

What impact can 

it have? 

Aside from a poor night’s 

sleep and an aching jaw in the 

morning, grinding your teeth can also 

cause a range of uncomfortable 

symptoms, including headaches and 

earache, stiff shoulders (from all that 

jaw clenching), joint stiffness, facial 

pain and, even more worryingly, considerable 

damage to your teeth. It can 

wear down enamel and, in bad cases, 

the tooth itself, which can result in 

shortened teeth, receding gums, sensitivity, 

and, if gone untreated, 

teeth and fillings can become loose 

and fall out. 

Why do we do it? 

The reason bouts of teeth grinding 

can come and go is because it is commonly 

related to stress, anxiety, or 

periods of deep concentration. In 

fact, 70 per cent of cases of sleep 

bruxism are triggered by stress or 

anxiety. However, it can also be 

caused by certain medications, particularly 

antidepressants, recreational 

drugs, excess caffeine, alcohol 

and some sleep disorders. 

Treatment 

To protect your teeth from damage, 

dentists often prescribe plastic night 

guards to be worn over teeth while 

asleep, but it's also wise to tackle the 

cause behind the grinding. For example, 

meditation, yoga and cognitive 

behavioural therapy can all help you 

to manage and relieve stress. Always 

speak to your dentist if you have any 

concerns, or if you think you might 

be grinding 

your teeth. 

All in the mind? 

That hot flush that creeps across your 

cheeks when embarrassed. The 

gut-wrenching nausea that hits when 

you receive bad news, palpitations and 

sweaty palms when you’re nervous... 

We’ve probably all experienced 

physical reactions to psychological 

triggers at some point – possibly on a 

very regular basis – and, in terms of 

the very common and relatively 

harmless examples listed above, we 

accept this as the norm. 

But accepting that our minds can 

be the cause of more severe physical 

symptoms is a different matter. As 

consultant neurologist Suzanne 

O’Sullivan demonstrates in her book, 

It’s All In Your Head, which has just 

scooped the Wellcome Book Prize 

2016, psychosomatic illness – which 

basically means physical symptoms 

where there’s no obvious medical 

cause, and so it’s believed that 

psychological or emotional factors are 

to blame – goes far beyond stomach 

butterflies and aches and pains that 

get worse when you’re worried. 

For some, it can be as devastating 

and debilitating as the ‘medically 

diagnosable’ conditions that 

symptoms mimic – and she hopes 

the book will get people talking, while 

highlighting the need for better 

services and support. 

“Psychosomatic disorders are really, 

really common, but for some reason, 

people don’t talk about them; it’s a 

hidden problem,” says O'Sullivan. 

“To think that one in three people in 

a neurology clinic have this sort of 

disorder – and yet most people have 

never heard about it – is really shocking.” 

It’s easy to dismiss psychosomatic 

problems as purely ‘imaginary’ or 

‘pretend’, but O’Sullivan points out 

that it’s far more complex than that, 

and should be recognised as a “very 

real” condition. Take Camilla, a 

successful lawyer and mum-of-two 

whose life is plagued by seizures, 

despite the fact tests all come back 

negative, and Yvonne who goes blind 

although nothing’s wrong with her 

eyes – two examples highlighted in 

O’Sullivan’s book, which weaves true 

stories based on her encounters with 

patients, and knowledge and insights 

garnered during her years working at 

the Royal London Hospital, and now 

at the National Hospital for 

Neurology and Neurosurgery. 

It’s eventually revealed that Camilla 

and Yvonne’s symptoms are rooted in 

emotionally traumatic experiences 

from their past. How these manifest 

themselves in such extreme physical 

ways is an area that remains relatively 

mysterious – but there is a real 

science to it, and O’Sullivan notes 

that researchers are now “much 

closer” to understanding the brain 

processes involved. 

“The UK is actually very advanced in 

this, [but] it’s only been in the last five 

to 10 years that there’s a group of 

doctors now examining this with 

proper scientific rigour,” she says, 

adding that technology such as MRI 

scans sometimes enable doctors to 

see differences that distinguish 

somebody who is “psychogenically 

paralysed from somebody who’s 

pretending to be paralysed”. It’s 

believed that in psychosomatic illness, 

the brain has “retrained” itself to 

experience symptoms as though they 

are real. 

And it’s not just public awareness 

that’s lacking – O’Sullivan is frustrated 

by the lack of knowledge and support 

within healthcare services, too. “In a 

lot of medical clinics, if they say your 

disorder is [psychosomatic], it feels 

like a dismissal. Medicine stops at a 

point where we say, ‘Well, you don’t 

have this or you don’t have that’,” she 

explains, adding that doctors need 

to work together to recognise 

psychosomatic illness as a genuine 

need for follow-up, and develop care 

pathways so patients can get the 

support they need. 

“We already 

know that 

mental 

health is 

stigmatised. 

I think this is 

even more 

so, because 

it looks 

physical but 

actually it’s psychological, and 

that makes it really hard for people to 

recognise that it’s a real problem,” 

adds O’Sullivan. 

Lack of acknowledgement from 

doctors can add to this sense of 

stigma and isolation – and mean 

that people become trapped in 

impossible-seeming circumstances, 

where their symptoms remain a 

problem but aren’t being addressed. 

“If somebody is having seizures 

everyday, the fact [tests show] they 

don’t have epilepsy is irrelevant to 

them,” O'Sullivan stresses. “Can you 

imagine how it feels if you’re having 

10 seizures a day, or you’re in a 

wheelchair, and you perceive that a 

doctor’s told you there’s nothing 

wrong with you?”

What Britain Buys 

Thursday 23rd June 

8.00pm-9.00pm 

Channel 4 

What Britain Buys is an eye-opening 

and intriguing look at how we 

shop, which products we buy, and 

what our £6.7 billion a week shopping 

habit says about Britain today. 

This time, Mary Portas discovers 

how in 2016 it’s not just what we buy, 

but how we buy, that is changing -with 

the switch to contactless spending, 

with cards, phones and even watches. 

Mary looks at the trend of putting 

snail slime on the face; at the millions 

of mums – and dads – doing the 

school run in leggings; what car pool 

karaoke means for the dash cam; how 

smart toys are affecting the way our 

children play; and how virtual reality 

is on the verge of changing the way 

we all see the world.

Saying?

Sunday 19th June 

8.00pm-9.00pm, ITV2 

Britain’s most famous Essex boy 

is back, as Joey Essex begins his 

latest series of intellectual 

challenges in a brand new 

seven part series of Educating 

Joey Essex. 

Fresh from his crash course in 

politics last year, Joey is once 

again on a mission to learn more 

about the world around him, and 

familiarise himself with the hot 

topics and big issues that 

everyone is talking about. 

This time around, Joey’s 

fact-finding assignments will be 

centred around the impending 

European Referendum. Joey will 

be getting back on board with 

politics as he puts his previous 

political know how into practise 

to get clued up on the European 

Referendum, as the landmark 

vote dawns on 23rd June. 

But can the man who once 

thought Richard & Judy created 

the world get to grips with 

European policy in time to vote 

yes or no? 

As part of his latest political 

onslaught, Joey will be speaking 

to Jeremy Corbyn, Ed Miliband, 

Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage. 

Some of the BBC’s best-loved presenters 

will be broadcasting from Worthy 

Farm and bringing the moments that 

are too good to be missed to audiences 

wherever they are. 

BBC Four features coverage of extended 

highlights and whole sets 

from across the festival featuring the 

likes of James, Foals, Jess Glynne, ZZ 

Top, Disclosure and Underworld.
