D. Do you back the Pope's visit?
Michael Jeans: The Pope is making an official state visit to Britain in September, will you disassociate your party from his protection of Catholic priests and his opposition to all contraception, embryonic stem cell research, treatment for childless couples, gay equality and the use of condoms?

Michael Jeans (from central Bristol): The Pope has accepted an invitation to make an official state visit to Britain in September at a cost of millions of pounds to tax-payers. If you win the election, will you disassociate your party from the Pope's protection over many years of Catholic priests who were ultimately tried and convicted of child abuse, and from his fierce opposition to all contraception, embryonic stem cell research, treatment for childless couples, gay equality and the routine use of condoms when HIV is at an all-time high?
