    The Catholic Church has pledged £7m towards the cost.

    As a matter of comparison Mgr Summersgill estimated the last visit by a pope, in 1982, cost between £15m and £16m.

    According to the Bank of England's inflation calculator, an event costing £16m in 1982 would cost about £42m today

    So all in all not to bad a deal.

    We pay for the Yanks to visit but don't always agree with their foreign or domestic policies. Similar to Amin,the Ruskies, Mugabe et al.
