2. To broadcast such a deeply offensive and blasphemous clip about God & Our Blessed Mother Mary during the Christmas season on ‘NYE Countdown Show' on @RTE, @RTEOne & on Eve of the Solemn Feast of Mary, Mother of God is insulting to all Catholics and Christians. @deeforbes_dee.

Evil is already prowling around our land - destroying life; stealing away happiness; stirring up violence and discord. Such evil seeks to snuff out the memory of ‘the rock from which we were hewn’; if we lose our spiritual memory we lose our sense of identity; we lose our way.

Such a moving experience - to place the relic of my saintly predecessor, St Oliver Plunkett, on the very spot in London where he was martyred for the faith in 1681 - witnessing for forgiveness, #peace and #reconciliation - still much needed on his beloved island of Ireland.
