Pope Francis has been welcomed to Belgium with powerful speeches from both the prime minister and the king condemning the Catholic Church’s handling of sexual abuse.
It was some of the most direct criticism levelled at the Church by a country’s leaders on the issue during a papal visit, with both King Philippe and Alexander de Croo alluding to the pontiff’s own responsibility in bringing about justice.
The Pope acknowledged their comments, saying the Church “must be ashamed” but said it was a matter that was being dealt with “firmly and decisively”.
Late on Friday, behind closed doors, the Pope met 15 survivors of abuse by members of the Catholic Church.
At the Palace of Laeken the Pope looked on solemnly as first the king of the Belgians and then the prime minister were unusually forthright in their comments about the body that he leads.
“It has taken far too long for the cries to be heard and acknowledged. It has taken far too long to begin looking for ways to repair the irreparable,” King Philippe said of victims of Church abuse.
De Croo then talked of the damage that had been done by the hundreds of sexual abuse cases associated with the Catholic Church in Belgium. “We cannot ignore the painful wounds that exist within the Catholic faith community and wider society,” he said, before addressing Pope Francis personally.
“You are committed to justice, but there is still a long way to go,” said the prime minister. Today, words alone do not suffice. We also need concrete steps.”
The Pope is visiting Belgium mainly to celebrate the 600th anniversary of two Catholic universities, but to some extent the trip has been overshadowed by long-running child abuse scandals, which have had a profound impact on the country.
Last year, a high-profile Belgian television series Godvergeten (Godforsaken) focused on abuse perpetrated by Catholic priests in Flanders. It led to many hundreds of people contacting an abuse helpline and is believed to have contributed to a dramatic decline in church attendance.
Survivors are calling for reparations and for the Vatican to devise a universal system for compensation, and the Belgian parliament has opened investigations into historical Church abuse cover-ups.
One of the 15 survivors meeting the Pope, Aline Colpaert, told Flemish TV earlier she was looking for a concrete plan of action: “I hope he’s sincere, that he really listens and that my message touches him.”
Pope Francis applauded the speeches of both the king and prime minister, and in his own speech said clerical sexual abuse was “our shame” – “the shame that today we must confront and beg forgiveness and resolve the problem, the shame of abuse, of the abuse of minors”. He compared the scourge of abuse to the slaughter of children by King Herod.
Although Pope Francis talked of the Church now taking decisive action to tackle the issue, critics contend that he could have done much more since his papacy began in 2013.
Certainly the Pope has now become adept at profusely apologising for clerical abuse and has often met survivors both at the Vatican and on foreign visits.
In fact, some trips like one to Canada in 2022, have been entirely built around survivors. In that case it was to say “sorry” to indigenous people, who as children faced family-separation and abuse at Catholic-run schools.
But it has not always been the case. In 2018, he faced a wave of criticism for his vocal defence of a Chilean bishop, Juan Barros, who had been accused of covering up abuse perpetrated by a mentor of his.
Pope Francis apologised for his “grave mistakes” in handling the situation in what was something of a watershed moment in the way he handled the issue of abuse.
Since then, the Pope has made it compulsory for members of the clergy to report suspected abuse to their superiors, saying that whistleblowers must be free from intimidation – though the realities of applying this globally have proved inconsistent to say the least.
There have also been new rules whereby clergy who have committed abuse can “defrocked.” But critics have said the Pope erred too much on the side of showing “mercy” to such priests.
They point to some cases where influential members of clergy, including some who have even admitted misconduct, have either not been suspended from public ministry or not been publicly sanctioned.
At the meeting at the Vatican Embassy in Brussels, each of 15 survivors was given three minutes to address Pope Francis.
The ability to have such an opportunity cannot be underestimated, but survivor groups have long wanted such meetings to lead to far better systems being in place not just to punish those who abuse, but stop the abuse happening in the first place.
This past week, Israel massively escalated its attacks on Lebanon, killing 32 and maiming over 3,000 in so-called “pager attacks” (e.g. a textbook war crime), and killing 558 people, including 34 children, by dropping over 2,000 bombs in 24 hours and unleashing a fresh set of bombings in Beirut on Friday, flattening several residential buildings and killing hundreds more. The scenes of carnage are staggering, hospitals are overwhelmed, families are running for their lives, people are justifiably scared of all electronic devices, and terror permeates Lebanon. This was, by far, the deadliest week in Lebanon since the Lebanese Civil War ended 34 years ago.
But, rest assured—influentital Western media outlets tell us—Israel was only dropping bombs on Lebanese people and exploding their devices in a coordinated terrorist attack in order to bring about peace. The escalated violence, we’re told, is actually a means of de-escalating the conflict. In the wake of the attacks, without a whiff of skepticism, both The New York Times and The Guardian were quick to parrot the Israeli government and military’s self-serving justification; that is, that they are massively ramping up their war on Lebanon not because they want to kill and humiliate a designated enemy, but because they want to compel the militant group Hezbollah into a “ceasefire” or to “withdraw” its forces.
Chief among those buying this convenient talking point is Patrick Kingsley of The New York Times. After allowing “ex” Israeli officials to echo this line without pushback for several days, Kinglsey skipped the middleman and just parroted the line himself in a September 23 “analysis,” writing:
Israeli officials had hoped that by scaling up their attacks over the past week — striking Hezbollah’s communications tools, and killing several key commanders as well as Lebanese civilians — they would unnerve the group and persuade it to withdraw from the Israel-Lebanon border. The officials believed that if they increased the cost of Hezbollah’s campaign, it would be easier for foreign diplomats, like Amos Hochstein, a senior United States envoy, to get the group to stand down.
Kingsley takes for granted that Israel’s goal with these acts of war is not to encourage more war but to simply push Hezbollah into a ceasefire at their Northern border—nothing more. Such a premise is so squishy and nebulous as to be meaningless, yet still hard to falsify. It also defies the basic tenets of military strategy and historical precedent. What we saw this week were not “defensive” actions taken with the objective of peace and getting Hezbollah to step back and stand down. The objective is surrender and calling it peace, which is tantamount to saying, “We’ll have peace after I kill you and control large parts of your territory.”
Israel is bombing Lebanon to achieve a military goal. It is not bombing for peace, it is bombing to control the terms of capitulation.
Israel is most likely attempting to militarily occupy Lebanese territory, as it did from 1985 to 2000. So yes, if Hezbollah simply hands over Lebanese territory—just like if Hamas unilaterally surrenders and allows Israel to occupy Gaza uncontested—then indeed there would be “peace” in the sense that Israel will have used extreme violence and human suffering to achieve domination. Again, this is a feature of winning a war, and it has been a feature since there’s been war, but Western commentators today are trying to rebrand the long-established terms of war with the vocabulary of peace.
If Hezbollah or Palestinian militants attacked Israel in the same fashion right now, killing 558 people, including 34 children, in one day, one wonders if Kinglsey would have taken at face value that they only did so reluctantly with the hopes of forcing a peace deal, compelling Israel to grant them a Palestinian state, or securing an agreement from Israel to never bomb Lebanon. The answer is mostly likely not. There is a subtle but effective mode of propaganda at work here: It’s just taken for granted that the US and Israel only engage in wide-scale violence as self-defense, as a tool to achieve peace, as a last resort. US and Israel’s enemies, on the other hand, whether they be Palestinian militants or Hezbollah, are assumed to be violent for the sake of violence. They are assumed to be ontologically sadistic, with no strategy beyond mindless death.
This isn’t to deny that Hezbollah has fired rockets into Israel—rockets that, according to Hezbollah, were fired in solidarity with those being bombed and starved in Gaza, and that still constitute a fraction of the attacks Israel has launched on Lebanon since October 7. Yet the former is always painted as the aggressor—and Israel is perennially, by definition, a purely defensive rational actor.
NPR’s report from September 22 allowed Israeli officials to run with the “bomb to de-escalate” line with zero pushback. The report gave Israeli officials the last word, paraphrasing Amir Avivi, a “retired Israeli brigadier general,” and telling listeners that “Israel was seeking to force Hezbollah to withdraw with these ever intensifying aerial attacks… Israel is basically putting in front of Hezbollah a very clear message, either you withdraw or it’s a full-scale war.” Maiming thousands and killing over 600 people in one week is apparently not an act of a “full scale war,” just penny ante messages from Israel, truly a reasonable and measured actor simply looking to de-escalate, signaling they want peace.
“Escalation suggests Israel gambling on bombing Hezbollah into ceasefire,” Dan Sabbagh, Defence and Security Editor at The Guardian, headlined his equally credulous piece published on September 24. “What is now unfolding is an Israeli strategy of military escalation against Hezbollah,” Sabbagh writes, “premised on the risky belief that the militant group can be bombed into a ceasefire before fighting in Gaza ends.”
“Bombed into a ceasefire,” again, is a concept so vague as to be meaningless. In principle, all war is pursuant to some eventual “ceasefire” in the sense that one side will capitulate once the other party achieves its military goal, thus ceasing fire. But this is not how the concept of launching large-scale attacks killing hundreds and maiming thousands is typically framed. It is only put in “peace” terms when done by a US/UK ally.
Pearl Harbor was designed to compel a “ceasefire” from the US and allow oil to flow back into Japan, but framing it this way would have been considered bizarre, insensitive, credulous, and—above all—extremely fatuous. A similarly Orwellian framing, of course, has dominated the fake “ceasefire” coverage with respect to Gaza. For months, Israel has successfully branded its repeated demand for unconditional surrender of Hamas and other militant groups as a “ceasefire offer.” The term has lost all meaning, and now, demands of total capitulation on pain of continued bombing by Israel and the slaughter of hundreds a day are presented to confused liberal readers in the West as magnanimous olive branches.
“War is peace” is a popular cliche in reference to Orwell used to mock deceptive language like this. So when The New York Times and Guardian adopt, more or less, this exact phrasing unironically, it doesn’t bode well for Western media’s ability to accurately capture how extreme, dangerous, and wanton Israel’s latest escalation in violence is.

HOMEOWNERS could get free or cheap energy-saving up-grades to their homes and slash up to £3,334 a year off their bills.
Energy bills are set to rise again on Tuesday when regulator Ofgem’s new price cap takes effect.
The average household paying by direct debit for dual fuel will see a £149 annual increase, or about £12 a month.
But making your home more energy-efficient can pay off.
The average power bill for a three-bedroom house with an energy performance certificate (EPC) rating of G is £5,674 a year — but the same house with a D rating averages £2,340, says property site Rightmove.
Homes with good insulation and LED lighting typically have higher EPC ratings, with A the best and G the worst. But around 55 per cent of UK housing is rated D or below.
Charles Roe, mortgages director at trade body UK Finance, says: “The UK has some of the oldest, least energy-efficient housing in Europe.
Upgrading our homes is a huge challenge, with key barriers being lack of confidence among homeowners and costs.”
Harriet Meyer looks at five simple home improvements that could cut your bills and sources of funding for your upgrades . . .
SAVE UP TO £340 A YEAR
THIS could save £340 a year for a detached home and £180 in a mid-terrace house, says the Energy Saving Trust.
You can do it yourself with mineral wool rolls if your loft is accessible.
According to Which?, loft insulation is around £20 for a 100mm-thick roll, covering about 8.3 square metres. Hiring a pro for an average semi could cost around £950.
The EST’s Joanna O’Loan says: “An uninsulated home loses about a quarter of its heat through the roof. If your insulation is less than 150mm, top it up to 270mm.”
Some energy firms offer free loft insulation through the energy company obligation scheme.
SAVE £120 A YEAR
UPGRADING your windows with A-rated double glazing could save around £120 a year on energy bills for the average semi-detached property, reckons the EST.
But be prepared to fork out around £15,000 to get this done.
If money is tight, a more affordable alternative is to buy ready-made secondary-glazing film online for about £10.
Use a hairdryer to shrink it to fit your frame.
You could also fit a layer of glass or plastic inside your frame and do this work yourself.
Get a few quotes if getting an expert to do the work.
SAVE UP TO £280 A YEAR
IF your boiler is more than ten years old, it may be less efficient and it could pay off to get it replaced.
Efficient A-rated condensing boilers could save up to £280 a year if you live in a mid-terrace house and are replacing a G-rated boiler, according to the EST.
If you do not qualify for the government assistance, getting a new boiler installed is likely to set you back around £4,000.
SAVE £100s A YEAR
PUTTING draught-proofing around your windows and doors could save you £35 a year, says the EST.
You can buy a cheap brush draught excluder online to fit under your front and back doors.
For internal doors, try rolled-up towels, old tights filled with clothes, or get a second-hand draught excluder on eBay.
If you have an unused chimney, block it with a cheap inflatable chimney balloon or DIY with old pillows. This can save you another £50 a year.
Don’t forget to plug other draughty spots such as floorboards, loft hatches and wall cracks too.
SAVE UP TO £75 A YEAR
REMOVING your old halogen light bulbs and replacing them with energy-efficient LED bulbs is one of the simplest ways to reduce your bills.
Light-emitting diode bulbs use significantly less energy — up to 90 per cent less than standard bulbs.
According to the EST, replacing all the bulbs in your home with LEDs could save you up to £75 a year on your energy bills.
You can buy basic ones for as little as £1 to £3 each.
SIDNEY and Elaine Regan are saving £200 a month after making energy-efficient changes.
Their energy bill doubled to over £500 a month because their boiler was getting old – so they invested in a new one, costing £5,000.
Retired care home receptionist Elaine said: “The bills were cheaper in winter after the up-grade. We’re gradually making the cost back.”
In addition to their Worcester Bosch combi boiler, the couple had a smart meter fitted in their three-bedroom terrace in Borehamwood, Herts – at no extra cost through their energy supplier, Octopus.
Elaine, 67, added: “We can now watch our usage and see what makes a difference.”
Taxi driver Sidney, 77, and Elaine have also made smaller changes, such as running the dishwasher less often, using draft excluders, and fitting LED light bulbs.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has pleaded not guilty to five counts of criminal offences, including bribery, wire fraud and soliciting illegal foreign campaign donations.
Wearing a dark blue suit, Adams arrived in federal court in New York for a brief hearing to enter his plea.
“I am not guilty, your honour,” he told Magistrate Judge Katharine Parker with a straight-faced expression, according to reporters in court.
The 64-year-old was indicted earlier this week on allegations that he accepted illegal campaign funds and thousands of dollars in luxury travel benefits from Turkish businessmen and an official in exchange for his influence as mayor.
Adams has denied any wrongdoing and said the public should withhold judgement until he makes his defence.
“I follow the rules, I follow the federal law, I do not do anything that’s going to participate in illegal campaign activity,” he said at a news conference.
Adams gave a thumbs-up to reporters as he entered court on Friday morning.
He was released on bail. Judge Parker ruled that Adams cannot talk to witnesses about the facts concerning the case, though he can discuss business or private family matters with them, according to US media.
His lawyer, Alex Spiro, told reporters outside court that he would be filing a motion to dismiss the case next week.
“The entire body of evidence is one staffer,” he told reporters. “What you have not heard, is that that staffer has lied, and the government is in possession of that lie.”
If convicted, Adams could face up to 45 years in prison.
He has rejected growing calls from members of his own party to resign.
The former police officer was elected to lead the most populous US city nearly three years ago with a promise to be harsh on crime.
Prosecutors say Adams’s misconduct began in 2014, during his time as Brooklyn Borough president, and carried on during his election campaign for mayor and while in office.
In the 57-page indictment, Adams was accused of pressuring New York City Fire Department officials to approve a Turkish consulate building without a safety inspection in exchange for benefits such as discounted flights, luxury hotels and meals.
Prosecutors say he also misused $10m (£7.4m) in public funds.
He is accused of using straw donors – a scheme that a person or entity uses to evade campaign finance limits – to take in illegal foreign donations and matching them with city funds that were supposed to be for small-dollar contributions from residents.
The mayor is due back in court on 2 October.
Adams has insisted he will stay in office while the case plays out, despite calls from Democrats at the state and federal level to resign.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul has the power to remove Adams. She has said she needs time to review the indictment to “see what’s embedded with this”.
Adams can also be ousted from the mayor’s office by a so-called “inability committee”, which would likely include at least a few city officials who oppose him.
Adams’s arraignment comes as the federal government carries out a number of probes into his administration, which has seen a wave of resignations in recent weeks.
The police commissioner, the health commissioner and the mayor’s chief counsel have all left office as well as the schools chancellor, David Banks, who had his phone seized.
I read with some surprise the piece by Amy Kazmin and Susannah Savage about coffee price hikes (“Italians in a froth over cappuccino bill after coffee bean prices hit record high”, Report, FT Weekend, September 14) and would like to highlight a few points.
When it is stated that Italians drink “some of western Europe’s least expensive coffee”, it should also be emphasised that in bars, Italians — or at least the majority of us — consume very low-quality blends from untraceable lots, often prepared with dirty, poorly maintained machines, leaving only a burnt aftertaste on the palate.
It’s worth noting that every year there are numerous police interventions imposing fines and sanctions on the owners of these “convivial coffee bars” for irregularities in coffee management.
This is to say that paying €1.20 for a cup of this type may certainly be a fun way to start the day, but it represents a price that is completely out of line with the intrinsic value of the product being consumed.

A MAJOR high street discounter has apologised for closing a branch after it was open for just one year.
The store in Maidenhead, Berkshire will close permanently next month due to issues surrounding the lease of the building.
Poundland’s store on Maidenhead High Street had already closed temporarily earlier this week after water damage caused part of the ceiling to collapse.
Despite this being fixed, the budget retailer has confirmed that the store will shut its doors forever in mid October.
A spokesperson for the company said: “I’m afraid we’ve been unable to secure an agreement with our landlord that would enable us to keep the store trading in Maidenhead.
“We know this will be disappointing to customers and we’re sorry we’ll be closing on 18 October.
“It goes without saying we’ll be doing all we can to look after colleagues that work there.”
Poundland had moved in to the building last year after the company stepped in to take over a number of Wilko shop leases, following the latter’s collapse.
Maidenhead High Street has also seen other casualties in the losses of both its Clarks and Barclays stores.
Clarks shut its doors on the street in June this year while the Barclays branch closed for the final time in May.
Poundland had undergone an expansion last year when it took over 71 ex-Wilko stores after the retailer fell into administration.
Since then however, several have closed down, including in Ellesmere Port, Galashiels, Scotland, and the Sailmakers Shopping Centre in Ipswich.
On top of this, in August a Poundland store in south Macclesfield closed for good.
A month before that, the discounter pulled down the shutters on a store in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, after taking it on from Wilko.
Despite this, earlier this year the retailer pledged to revamp 150 stores by end of August with new signage, flooring, lighting and ranges.
It also aimed to have staff areas made over to make them better places to work.
RETAILERS have been feeling the squeeze since the pandemic, while shoppers are cutting back on spending due to the soaring cost of living crisis.
High energy costs and a move to shopping online after the pandemic are also taking a toll, and many high street shops have struggled to keep going.
The high street has seen a whole raft of closures over the past year, and more are coming.
The number of jobs lost in British retail dropped last year, but 120,000 people still lost their employment, figures have suggested.
Figures from the Centre for Retail Research revealed that 10,494 shops closed for the last time during 2023, and 119,405 jobs were lost in the sector.
It was fewer shops than had been lost for several years, and a reduction from 151,641 jobs lost in 2022.
The centre’s director, Professor Joshua Bamfield, said the improvement is “less bad” than good.
Although there were some big-name losses from the high street, including Wilko, many large companies had already gone bust before 2022, the centre said, such as Topshop owner Arcadia, Jessops and Debenhams.
“The cost-of-living crisis, inflation and increases in interest rates have led many consumers to tighten their belts, reducing retail spend,” Prof Bamfield said.
“Retailers themselves have suffered increasing energy and occupancy costs, staff shortages and falling demand that have made rebuilding profits after extensive store closures during the pandemic exceptionally difficult.”
Alongside Wilko, which employed around 12,000 people when it collapsed, 2023’s biggest failures included Paperchase, Cath Kidston, Planet Organic and Tile Giant.
The Centre for Retail Research said most stores were closed because companies were trying to reorganise and cut costs rather than the business failing.
However, experts have warned there will likely be more failures this year as consumers keep their belts tight and borrowing costs soar for businesses.
The Body Shop and Ted Baker are the biggest names to have already collapsed into administration this year.
