The altar rails are long gone, of course, and the cathedral was not exactly a traditionalist's dream before this latest “upgrading” but at least it boasted a statue of the Sacred Heart, and a ‘Lady altar’ - not any more. The statue of Our Lady is situated over two white doors (see left) which I’m told will eventually depict two angels (that’s something I suppose) from whence the clergy process. Still, it’s sad that there is nowhere to place flowers in honour of the Queen of Heaven. And can you see any- where to kneel to pray in front of the statue? The statue of the Sacred Heart has been relocated from above the tabernacle (side altar - see below, left) to the shop at the back, high up on a side wall, almost touching the ceiling. As I craned to take the photograph (see right) a lady parishioner said: “Why did they put it away up there?” Good question. “Too Catholic” was my immedi- ate reply. You don’t want to offend Protestants and risk all the concert and theatre goers set to throng this building being put off by Catholic stuff like statues and crucifixes, do you. The only crucifix I could find is included in the stained glass window. The altar rails were removed from the cathedral years ago.

What the timing of these two events means in the plan of Divine Providence may be unknown, but developments since then show that Fatima remains uppermost in the minds of many Catholics throughout the world. Shortly after the English edition of the biography appeared, for example, attorney Christopher Ferrara criticized a passage in the translation involving words of Our Lady, and he interpreted the mistranslated passage as a deliberate attempt to alter the facts relating to the Third Secret.

Of all European elections, the one scheduled for May 23-26, 2019, which will decide the composition of the 9th European Parliament, may be the most unpredictable, as well as the most important, in the history of the European Union. Far-right forces may gain unprecedented ground, with polls suggesting that they will win up to one-fifth of the 705 seats that will make up the European parliament after Brexit.1 The outcome of the election will have a profound impact not only on the political environment in Europe, but also on the trans- atlantic and Euro-Russian relationships.
