Tyburn Tree has posted on Facebook, with a suggestion of how to call a halt to The Tablet and its utterances, in particular, criticising Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
As with all good ideas, it has simplicity at its base.
Here is what TT has to say on the matter:-
"This
is just a thought.
Perhaps people who attend Westminster
Cathedral could be
encouraged to desist
from putting money in the collection until
such time as the
Tablet is removed (and
write to His Grace to that
effect)".

Great idea. But why restrict it to Westminster Cathedral?
Why not withold normal weekly donations to the collection plate?
Always provided, of course, that you attend a parish where The Tablet is on sale.
If the thought of holding back your dues is worrying you, why not just place the money in a safe place pro tem and then pay up once the offending rag has been removed?
For good.
Seems a sound concept to me.
Nothing focuses the attention of their Lordships better than a reduction in turnover.
So please....desist.....yes, desist......DESIST!
