Who Needs The Skibbereen Eagle?
Who needs the Skibbereen eagle, when we have the CBCEWDIA? (And "Muslim fellows", surely, rather than "fellow Muslims", or even "Muslim fellow citizens"?)
Bishop Lang expresses sorrow at violence in Cairo
BISHOP Declan Lang of Clifton, chairman of the bishops' department for international affairs, has spoken of his "great sadness" at the violence that left 26 people dead in Cairo earlier this month. The bishop said: "It be hoped that the Egyptian political authorities will spare no effort in addressing at long last the festering problems that have affected the Coptic faithful in Egypt so that they can become equal citizens alongside their fellow Muslims." He said his prayers were with Catholic and Orthodox leaders in Egypt.

At least the CBCEWDIA were neither shrill nor impolite, and therefore merit the approval of the Magic Circle.
Malted milk in their bellies......
