spectator: Cardinal Zen and Pope Francis’s disturbing pact with Beijing ✍️ Damian Thompson

spectator: No one doubts that Cardinal Zen, who stepped down as bishop of Hong Kong as long ago as 2009, is a source of severe diplomatic embarrassment to the Holy See. But it has only itself to blame ✍️ Damian Thompson

spectator: ‘Cardinal Zen went to Rome to tell Pope Francis how worried he was about the Vatican’s 2018 pact with Beijing, which gives the Communist party the power to appoint Catholic bishops. The Pope refused to see him.’ ✍️ Damian Thompson

ByVinGallo: 6:26 left in the second. Hawi Cook-Francis flips momentum in the frame with a goal. Canton is hit with a 2-0 run after building its own. The Bears’ Ethan Francey responds immediately at 5:56. He pushes a shot past Thompson while falling down to make it 7-4, Shamrocks.
