  • Accomplices To Be Indicted With Him Are Theresa May (MP) And George Osborne (MP)
  • Crimes Committed Ranges From Abuse Of Legislations, Extortion And Massacreration Of The UK Economy

The Prorogation Of Justice Requires Leadership Courtesy Of Impunity Law To Mandate The Rule Of Law Effectisation Of Equality Without Debarment Of Peoples Right To Overturn The Rulership Of Few Men Over The Majority Of Mass Submission –By Her Knowledgeable Professor Alexia Thomas

Coming on the heels of the just-concluded BREXIT which is still generating reactions and counter-reactions across the world, the unjustified beheading of King Charles 1 by Parliamentarians on January 30, 1649 has been unveiled and calling for justice commiseration for King Charles by the ever-fierce Activist and Chairman of The Commonwealth Liberation Party (TCLP) UK, Prof. Alexia Thomas.

Prof. Thomas’ assertion has however necessitated her demand for justice by writing a 40-point strongly worded letter to the Commissioner of Police, New Scotland Yard, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe who she charged must prosecute David Cameron and his accomplices.

In her letter dated 26th June 2016, and copied to the office of Queen Elizabeth II, the Prince Of Wales, the Buckingham Police Department and Serving MPs, the TCLP Chairman, Prof. Alexia Thomas is calling for a halt of the 19th Century Boys Scott British Politicians from running Great Britain in the 21st Century like their Father’s Vine-Yard.

 

EVIL GENIUS AND HIS CRIMES

Opening up a bunch of historical revisit, the Royal Mother as she fondly addressed alleges Mr. Cameron’s ferocious atrocities committed as acting British Prime Minister from11/05/2010 to 24/04/2016 is now indictable under the Criminal Act for his Crimes of FRAUD, TAX EVASION and RIGGING ELECTIONS; The Law, as compelled by Legislation and aforesaid Penalty be communed.

FRAUD, TAX EVASION and RIGGING ELECTIONS; The Ousted Prime Minister David Cameron and his Cabinet Ministers of the Remain Campaign rigged the election. On the 24/06/2016, he sought for 3 months’ period for his Government Handover and European Commission President Mr. Jean-Claude Juncker overturned that his time asked will defect the whole process of new transition and EU is not in consensual.

Mr. Cameron punishment ensued for his violation of Communications Act 2003. Her Knowledgeable Professor Alexia call directs the Justice System and Parliament to revoke and banned the Communications Acts 2003 in which Conservative Party Members equally breached.

 

TAX EVASION

Allegation Of 2016 was swept under the Carpet because he sweet spoke People of Britain by his charms using deceit Diplomacy. The Man Cameron is not as smart as People assumed because his Political cajole shank Politicians in Government for the gains.

BREACHED COMMUNICATIONS ACT 2003

Another to his array of Criminal Offences; and this is a very serious legislation that has limited over 200 UK Political Parties inability to arise above suppression in recognition compares with old Party of Conservative Party and Labour. Communications Act 2003 was intentionally enacted to keep Old Parties in Rulership to continue their tenure in Tyranny so People of Britain are restricted by Media Broadcast of other Up-Rise Parties and now same Conservative Party is in breached of the Act

EMBEZZLEMENT

Prof. Thomas submits that PM David Cameronembezzled £9,000,000.00 to campaign Britain Remained in EU and Printed Flyers and now that his illogical views failed, he has indebted the Tax Payers Coffers, therefore Mr. Cameron influenced Legislation and funded his Conservation Party Agenda with Tax Payers Money

Prof. Thomas prorogate that Mr. Cameron is currently in a State of confusion hence seeking for 3 months is a decoy to cover his track and conceal evidence, hence is now an effective time to oust Mr. Cameron’s time buying, he must now vacate 10 Downing Street not exceeding 8 days from the receipt of her letter dated the 26/06/2016, so to restrict him from rigging the evidence to be collated at his residence

STAIN IN POLITICS

Mr. Mark Carney is the 120th and current Governor of Bank Of England, appointed in 2013. He is the first Non-Briton to be appointed to the Post but made a commitment to the Prime Minister to take up British Citizenship. Why did he make a commitment to take British Citizenship, simply denotes his position was attained by the lobbyist to Aid Movement of British Money to the European Union without obstruction for evasiveness of shrinking the Economy of United Kingdom?

A Canadian being a Governor of Bank of England is a shame on British Democracy, the most ridiculed monger of National derailment of Economic Servant for destruction.

Questions need to be answered why a Non-British is appointed to the Post of such task of a Nations Treasury.

DEMOCRACY DEATH

Prof. Thomas alleges that offences committed were Crimes of from Abuse of Legislations, Extortion and Massacreration of the UK Economy. Her contention is that ‘The Prorogation Of Justice Requires Leadership Courtesy Of Impunity Law To Mandate The Rule Of Law, Effectisation Of Equality Without Debarment Of Peoples’ Right To Overturn The Rulership Of Few Men Over The Majority Of Mass Submission’.

She therefore enjoins the British Monarchy when she opined, “The Monarchy and people of Great Britain will agree this is the only resolution to ripen the fruit of justice denied of King Charles 1”.

 

KING CHARLES I, FINAL STATEMENT BEFORE EXECUTIONAn Unjust Sentence That I Suffered To Take Effect, Is Punished Now By An Unjust Sentence On Me. He Declared That He Had Desired The Liberty And Freedom Of The People As Much As Any, “But I Must Tell You That Their Liberty And Freedom Consists In Having Government … It Is Not Their Having A Share In The Government; That Is Nothing Appertaining Unto Them. A Subject And A Sovereign Are Clean Different Things.” He Continued, “I Shall Go From A Corruptible To An Incorruptible Crown, Where No Disturbance Can Be.”

The killing of King Charles I, led Parliamentarians enacting the Bill of Rights 1689 and this gave the likes to Mr Cameron’s audaciousness to rule the Kingdom founded by the Knights by Tyranny and propaganda with his coalition of Kindergarten Politician who lacked Political Mythology

The British Democratic Government Institution is not formidable enough to hold their Sovereignty and hence democratic Parliament is doom to collapse as the demise of the Kings Charles I, instigated the breakout of British American Civil War in triumph of the Nations of American’s Independent break away from the United Kingdom; Hence British on American assignment rejected returning Home since the Kings Charles death and Democracy, as Government was, conceptualizes enforcing the British Monarch King Charles II to sigh and accept Constitutional Monarch automatically this values breached Kings Charles assertion of the Divine Right of Kings.

 

THE LAW AND PROCESSFRAUD ACT 2006, CHAPTER 35, SECTION 4 AND SECTION 7 HIGHLIGHTED: –

SECTION 4: FRAUD BY ABUSE OF POSITION

(1) A person is in breach of this section if he-

  • occupies a position in which he is expected to safeguard, or not to act against, the financial interests of another person,
  • dishonestly abuses that position, and
  • intends, by means of the abuse of that position- (i) to make a gain for himself or another, or (ii) to cause loss to another or to expose another to a risk of loss.

(2) A person may be regarded as having abused his position even though his conduct consisted of an omission rather than an act.

 

SECTION 7: MAKING OR SUPPLYING ARTICLES FOR USE IN FRAUDS

(1) A person is guilty of an offence if he makes, adapts, supplies or offers to supply any article-

  • knowing that it is designed or adapted for use in the course of or in connection with fraud, or intending it to be used to commit, or assist in the commission of, fraud.

(2) A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable-

  • on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum (or to both); (b) on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10years or to a fine (or to both).

She asserts that Justice Pursuit to compel Mr. Cameron is punished severely for Tax Evasion is highlighted under the Practice for evasion of Income Tax Section 106A of the Taxes Management Act 1970. She remembered the Police Commissioner of his background as a Law Graduate and should not allow himself be brainwashed by any Crown Prosecution, hence any deterrent to frustrate the Law of Joinders in a Liberal Democracy itself is a Criminal Offence punishable by imprisonment. She advised the Police Commissioner is to seek guidance on what Penalty he must apply to get Mr. Cameron punished for his offences. Mr. Cameron hidden Finance Documentations and Extortion can be exhumed for investigation and possibly he be placed on House Arrest to restrict him concealing evidence relevant for his trials.

Prof. Thomas informed the Police Commissioner to apply for High Court Confiscation Order for permittal to seal up the entire Premises of Number 10, 11 and 12 Downing Street Government Residence Quarters for Minimum of 28 Days and Maximum 45 days to enable entrapment of evidence relevant to make History that will reshape and rewrite how Parliamentarians shall now govern Great Britain as the Pursuit to now kill Democracy is evidential that our 19th Century Politicians are buttered for Bread hence acting as Cowards will ruin the Future of United Kingdom.

The ASSIGNMENT and TASK and EXECUTION of its Justice Protocol Observance as a result of Britain withdrawal from EU Club are enforceable on the Police Commissioner and his Office intervention in and conjoint collaboration with State Security Services to hold the United Kingdom on the break to collapse and secure her Sovereignty.

She calls the Police Commissioner’s Office involvement in the British Political Cold Wars which will turmoil Britain Reconnaissance of reborn to her Self-Governing without outside intervention and in turn assist the Politicians sorts their State of Insanity in deciding outcomes of a way forward without interest on Self-wants.

She informed the Task Force not to undermine all element of Prime Minister Crimes and being ‘knowingly concerned’, for matters of Election Rigging which is why Remain had 48% and Leave had 52 %, fraudulent evasion of income tax and Fraud.

She addressed Police Commissioner his Office is not to allow any Evidence escape through the radar and for the First Time, “this will prove Democratic Government is the most corrupt and as such our Pursuit is to awake a New System of Government called Act Of Politics and start invocation while Power is restored back to Monarchy by the Divine Right of the Kings, authority stolen from the Monarchical Throneship after beheading of King Charles I, on the 30th January 1649”

Parliamentarian have confraternised the existence of New Political Parties to arise above the old existing Once through enacting Communications Act 2003 making the UK an only Two Party Decree.

 

The ACT

Her Knowledgeable Professor Alexia Thomas educated all and sundry about the COMMUNICATIONS ACT 2003 which she is a Confraternised Legislation that kills the Wellbeing of Political Parties and Paralysed their Locus Standi. Illustration – Rule 7 of the BCAP Code – Prohibition For Advertiser:

  1. Influencing the outcome of elections or referendums, whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere;
  2. Bringing about changes of the law in the whole or a part of the United Kingdom or elsewhere, or otherwise influencing the legislative process in any country or territory;

  4. Influencing the policies or decisions of persons on whom public functions are conferred by or under the law of the United Kingdom or of a country or territory outside the United Kingdom;
  5. Influencing the policies or decisions of persons on whom functions are conferred by or under international agreements;
  6. Influencing public opinion on a matter which, in the United Kingdom, is a matter of public controversy;
  7. promoting the interests of a party or other group of persons organised, in the United Kingdom or elsewhere, for political ends.

 

Prof. Thomas declared the dangerous of Communications Act 2003 Legislation is why the ruling Government has never faced challenges on their destruction to the People; because the Government operates a Legalised Despotism and the Media are not allowed to broadcast the truth in the radar for the avoidance of their License Revocation.

She elaborates her assertions that EU Referendum: £9,000,000.00 Taxpayer-Funded Publicity Blitz Pushes Case To Remain – Header liner Published by Guardian News Papers Thursday 7 April 2016 07.14 BST. Every household in England receive a glossy 14-Page Booklet through their letterbox for the Case for Britain to remain in the European Union, this automatically is a Criminal |Offence because he influenced Legislation that automatically means Mr. Cameron rigged the Election because of Power intoxicated and assumed he is above the Law.

 

BRITISH DEMAGOGUE PROFESSOR ALEXIA THOMAS PURSUIT AND DRIVE

She declared her Government is on the voyage of bringing DEMOCRACY to DEATH by 2021 and enforced the ACT OF POLITICS BIRTH; She assert that the New System of Government is invoked by her Political Party – The Commonwealth Liberation Party for Practice and effectisation by Queen and Country and her Commonwealth for Citizens Justice in commune of British Heritage.

She shamed MR. CAMERON’s EMBEZZLEMENT OF £9,000,000.00 to campaign Britain Remained in EU and Printed Flyers and now that his illogical views failed, he has indebted the Tax Payers Coffers, therefore Mr. Cameron influenced Legislation and funded his Conservation Party Agenda with Tax Payers Money.

Prof. Thomas Party hunts the chase for embezzled Money be paid back into the Treasury either by Mr. Cameron himself or his Conservative Party. He has campaigned in the Banner of the Government whereas in decoy, it was a Conservative Party Campaign Propaganda.She directs the Office of the Police Commissioner is to recover the Money back and pursue it’s remittance or failure, Mr. Cameron should consider receiving additional 6 years Prison sentence.

 

Her Knowledgeable Professor Alexia Thomas pronounced that her Government visioned Britain’s Future, ‘Drag The Wagon Back To The Past Before Pushing The Concession Of The Further Or Rather Into The Future’ or else the Open Coffins shall grave our Unborn Children if we allow Few Men dares our Iron Steel. we have intervened to halt 19th Century Boys Scott British Politicians from running Great Britain in the 21st Century like their Father’s Vine-Yard

On this Justice, she said her Party seek demand and amendment to the situation and call on the State Security Service to seal the Nation’s Vault as the Bank of England Governor Mr. Mark Carney is a Canadian and cannot be trusted because his demeanor when he addressed the Nation to observe calmness on the 24/06/2016, it became obvious he equally entangled himself in submission to give the British Peoples sovereignty to the EU, so he must step down equally for a handover of his Office Powers to a different commander.

Prof. Thomas Party invites the Metropolitan Police, Scotland Yard into the Political Cold War of Rivalries of EU Remain Campaign and EU Leave Campaign and as such, Citizens of Britain are in distrust and distress of their Future uncertainty.                                                             Prof. Thomas graced her submissions that ‘THE MONARCHY AND PEOPLE OF GREAT BRITAIN WILL AGREE THIS IS THE ONLY RESOLUTION TO RIPEN THE FRUIT OF JUSTICE DENIED OF KING CHARLES I.

Her Knowledgeable Professor Alexia Thomasdemands Justice that “Punishment of Guilt and Penalty administered must be executed under the Fraud Act 2006, Section 7 Chapter 2(b) for conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for Term not exceeding 10 years and we are demanding on behalf of Great People of Britain, that the State Prosecution to seek 6 years Prison Sentence to teach Mr. Cameron and Parliamentarian a lesson as payback for Justice for King Charles I.                                                                                                                  

In adversary, Parliament will agree Democracy is less than 600 years old and has failed the People and Country and the World. Watch Full Video on YouTube @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vTc56WZa1M.

The confirmed her Party The Commonwealth Liberation Party will not relent in enforcing Justice Education till Mr. David Cameron faces the gallows of Justice for his involvement in playing Kingdom of Britain Monarch and her Citizens and Subjects in Joystic Joinder Politics as a Traitor and in Treason of Deceit Diplomacy.

Prof. Alexia Thomas in her Majestic Revelation leaves her Quote with us to Stand the Time to ring her bells after her Death; She Pronounces  —- We cannot blind the People, deny them Eyesight; the vague is a cartelistic flaw because illiterates now govern Britain, and this insanity of Men dangerousity to Human Race will not grow their Gem in Place of great Eye Men in which I am the Headship of 21st Century Total Transformation and my silent will bring Jeopardy, denying Humans Protection and Security the values I so believed must be defended till my death, so I will not compromise Truth for Corruption, and playing in my field is a bomb of Truth.

Simon Ekpa Busted: Finland Says ‘Yes’ to Nigeria’s Extradition Request

Simon Ekpa Busted: Finland Says ‘Yes’ to Nigeria’s Extradition Request

Finland Approves Extradition of Simon Ekpa to Nigeria in Landmark Terrorism Case

In a dramatic turn of events that could reshape regional security dynamics and test the bounds of international law, Finnish authorities have approved the extradition of Simon Ekpa, a polarizing Finnish-Nigerian separatist agitator, to Nigeria. The extradition is scheduled to take place on July 15, 2025, following a ruling by the Päijät-Häme District Court in Lahti on April 18, 2025.

Ekpa, who controversially refers to himself as the “Prime Minister” of the self-declared Biafra Republic Government-in-Exile, has been at the center of violent separatist rhetoric and activities that have plagued Nigeria’s southeast in recent years. He was arrested in Lahti in November 2024 after an extensive investigation by Finnish authorities into his alleged role in inciting violence from abroad.

Though often mischaracterized in media and political circles as a factional leader within the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), IPOB has publicly and repeatedly disassociated itself from Ekpa and his actions.

“Simon Ekpa runs his own network of criminals and kidnappers, and his actions have nothing to do with the actual Biafran struggle or IPOB’s ideology of non-violence,” an IPOB spokesperson said in a firm rebuttal. “It is dangerous and deceptive to label him as part of IPOB.”

Ekpa leads a fringe group called “Autopilot”, and is allegedly linked to the Biafra Liberation Army (BLA), a shadowy militant outfit accused of deadly attacks, kidnappings, and violent enforcement of “sit-at-home” orders in Nigeria’s southeastern states.

Finnish police have accused him of inciting violence through incendiary online broadcasts, which are believed to have inspired multiple deadly attacks on Nigerian civilians and security personnel. Four other individuals have also been detained in connection with financing and supporting his operations.

The Nigerian government, which has been pursuing his extradition since early 2023, welcomed the Finnish court’s decision as a major diplomatic and legal victory.

“This is a triumph for justice and a stern warning to those who think they can destabilize Nigeria from foreign soil,” a senior official from the Ministry of Defence remarked.

The extradition comes despite Finland’s general reluctance to extradite its citizens outside the European Union. However, officials cited exceptional circumstances and invoked provisions under the Rome Statute, which both Finland and Nigeria have ratified, to facilitate the process. The Finnish government stressed that the decision adhered to both international law and due process.

Upon his return to Nigeria, Ekpa is expected to face multiple charges including terrorism, incitement, conspiracy, and crimes against the state. His prosecution is anticipated to become one of the most closely watched legal cases in modern Nigerian history, with significant scrutiny from both local and international human rights organizations.

As July approaches, all eyes will be on the Nigerian judiciary and the government’s ability to manage the legal and political storm that is likely to follow Ekpa’s extradition and trial.

The Compassionate Pontiff: Pope Francis Dies at 88, Leaving a Mixed Legacy of Hope and Unfinished Reckoning

The Compassionate Pontiff: Pope Francis Dies at 88, Leaving a Mixed Legacy of Hope and Unfinished Reckoning By George Omagbemi Sylvester

The Compassionate Pontiff: Pope Francis Dies at 88, Leaving a Mixed Legacy of Hope and Unfinished Reckoning

By George Omagbemi Sylvester

The world stands at a moral crossroads with the passing of Pope Francis at the age of 88, a man widely revered for his humility, humanity, and efforts to reshape the Catholic Church into a vessel of compassion, social justice, and mercy. Yet, even in his death, the shadows of unresolved trauma, rooted in decades of clerical abuse; cling to his papacy, threatening to tarnish a legacy that otherwise radiates light.

The Compassionate Pontiff: Pope Francis Dies at 88, Leaving a Mixed Legacy of Hope and Unfinished Reckoning
By George Omagbemi Sylvester

Born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1936, Pope Francis was the first pope from the Americas and the first Jesuit to ascend the papal throne. His election in 2013 was itself a turning point, a signal that the Church was ready for introspection and reform after decades of bureaucratic rigidity and moral decline. But while Pope Francis redefined the global perception of what a pontiff could be, his inability to decisively eradicate the rot of clerical abuse and Vatican secrecy leaves a bitter footnote to an otherwise progressive era.

A Pope of the People

Francis was, above all, a pastor of the people. He lived in a guesthouse rather than the Apostolic Palace, carried his own bag, and rejected the papal limousine for a modest Ford Focus. His simple lifestyle sent a message louder than a thousand encyclicals, that humility was not merely a virtue to be preached, but one to be lived.

He tackled issues that many in the Vatican’s hierarchy feared to touch. From calling for action on climate change in his landmark encyclical Laudato Si’, to opening doors for the divorced and remarried, and asking “Who am I to judge?” in reference to gay Catholics, Francis sought to shift the Church from a rule-bound institution to a more merciful community of believers.

Former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon once said of Francis: “His voice carries moral authority because it is not political. It is prophetic.” Indeed, Francis saw the world through the eyes of the poor, the refugee, the marginalized. He called the global economic system “an economy that kills” and urged nations to remember “the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.”

In his 2020 book Let Us Dream, Francis wrote, “This is a moment to dream big, to rethink our priorities… and to choose what matters.” That dream was not just theological, it was social, economic, environmental, and deeply human.

An Incomplete Reckoning

Yet even prophets stumble. While Pope Francis acknowledged the evils of sexual abuse within the Church, his actions often fell short of his rhetoric. He initially defended Chilean Bishop Juan Barros despite widespread allegations of covering up abuse, only to backtrack after international outrage. Though he later defrocked hundreds of priests and convened global bishops for a summit on abuse in 2019, the fundamental structures of secrecy and institutional protection remained largely intact.

Renowned historian Garry Wills once said, “The Catholic Church is the longest-standing authoritarian institution in the Western world.” Despite Francis’ reformist zeal, that institution remained resistant to full transparency.

“There is no greater tyranny,” wrote Montesquieu, “than that which is perpetrated under the shield of law and in the name of justice.” This tyranny lived in the silence of countless victims whose testimonies were long ignored, buried under ecclesiastical bureaucracy.

Even Francis’ own commissions on abuse faltered. Several prominent abuse survivors resigned, citing lack of progress and frustration at the Vatican’s unwillingness to hold bishops accountable. It is a tragic irony that a pope so committed to the poor and oppressed struggled to fully deliver justice to the most grievously wounded among his own flock.

Philosophical and Political Legacy

Despite these failings, Pope Francis reasserted the moral relevance of the Church in an era of rising authoritarianism and nihilism. He condemned populist nationalism, warned against “savage capitalism,” and confronted world leaders on their failure to uphold human dignity.

Barack Obama once called him “a living example of Jesus’ teachings,” and indeed, Francis preached with the urgency of a man who saw the world on fire.

He often quoted Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov: “The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.” For Francis, that “something” was the dignity of the human person. He reasserted the Church’s opposition to the death penalty, called for the abolition of nuclear weapons, and emphasized that migration is not a crime but a human right.

His encyclical Fratelli Tutti called for a new kind of politics: “A love capable of transcending borders is the basis of what we call social friendship.” In a world fractured by xenophobia and greed, Francis’ voice was often the lone trumpet of compassion echoing across closed borders and barbed wire fences.

Criticism from Within

Not all welcomed this new direction. Traditionalist Catholics saw him as a threat to orthodoxy. Some cardinals openly resisted his reforms, and conservative theologians accused him of creating doctrinal confusion. But Francis seemed unfazed. “Tradition is not the worship of ashes,” he once said, quoting Gustav Mahler, “but the preservation of fire.”

Perhaps it is this fire that will define his legacy. A fire for justice, mercy, and a Church more in tune with the suffering of the world than with the politics of Rome.

The Final Chapter

As news of his death spreads, reactions are flooding in. UN Secretary-General António Guterres praised him as “a tireless advocate for the poor, the vulnerable, and the planet.” German Chancellor Olaf Scholz described him as “a moral compass in a turbulent world.” In the slums of Manila, the plains of Kenya, and the refugee camps of Lebanon, candles are being lit for a pope who saw them not as burdens, but as brothers.

Yet, for the victims of clerical abuse, the candle burns differently, more like a flicker of hope never fully realized.

Francis once said, “Mercy is the very foundation of the Church’s life.” But mercy without justice, as philosopher Cornel West reminds us, is sentimentality. And justice without truth is cruelty.

The Church now faces a difficult road ahead. Will it choose a successor who deepens the reforms Francis began, or one who retreats to the safety of orthodoxy? Will it finally confront its sins not with apologies alone, but with sweeping structural change?

Pope Francis leaves behind a Church more open, more self-aware, but still grappling with its darkest sins. He was the right man for a world gasping for empathy, but not quite the hammer needed to demolish the structures of secrecy that protected predators for decades.

Still, in an era of cynicism, his belief in the power of mercy, inclusion, and human dignity stands tall.

As the philosopher Immanuel Kant once said, “Two things fill the mind with ever increasing awe: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me.” Pope Francis reminded a watching world that amid scandal and sorrow, there remains a moral law—and it must always side with the least of these.

He has departed this world, not with the might of a monarch, but with the footprints of a shepherd. Let the next chapter of the Catholic Church be written not just with prayers, but with courage. For that is what Francis hoped for most, not sainthood, but a Church worthy of its founder.
