Pope's UK visit 'could cost taxpayers ?12m'

[kyleb]

Costs for the pope's inaugural visit to Britain are soaring, with taxpayers contributing as much as ?12m towards the four-day event, an increase of ?4m on previous estimates.

A five-day visit by the Pope to Australia in 2008 cost the country over A$200 million (?114 million). Other state visits within Europe have also cost eye-popping sums.

what is it with this country just wasting millions after millions while thousands of jobs are getting cut

The Queen has given a gift of a facsimile of 85 drawings by Hans Holbein the Younger to the pope . The pope has promised to give the Queen a pearl necklace later.

very true indeed that smirnoff, the church numbers have fallen off so much. and will continue to do so as the elderly pass away there is no next generation to take there place at the church.

and spot on again total abuse of the power intrusted to them as with anyone in power these days just look at the mp's and fingers in the till.

bad people are put at high ranks of all faiths on purpose, i believ no faith tells you to do things like these nobs do

thats the only way to kill religion, put complete nobs in power and to represent it and people will start hating the religion
