So much of the news is depressing these days. The ongoing wars in Iran, Lebanon and Ukraine. The cost of living crisis. At times it feels the world has tipped into the surreal. Donald Trump posting photos of himself on his Truth Social account as the Risen Christ. A step too far even for Nigel Farage. To round it off we have the US president picking a fight with the pope. Leo is a terrible man apparently for not endorsing war. Trump has yet to work out that, on the whole, popes are not in favour of illegal wars.
