Speaker 1: is recorded on Hi.

4
00:00:20,494 --> 00:00:23,654
Speaker 2: I'm Grace Rubrey from Mumma MEA's twice daily news podcast,

5
00:00:23,734 --> 00:00:26,974
Speaker 2: The Quikie with Your Headlines. For Friday, April twenty five,

6
00:00:27,854 --> 00:00:30,694
Speaker 2: Pope Francis will be laid to rest on Saturday after

7
00:00:30,734 --> 00:00:33,774
Speaker 2: passing away aged eighty eight, of a stroke that left

8
00:00:33,814 --> 00:00:38,414
Speaker 2: him in a coma before suffering irreversible cardiocircletary collapse on

9
00:00:38,454 --> 00:00:42,694
Speaker 2: Easter Monday. Claire Murphy explains what happens now as the

10
00:00:42,774 --> 00:00:45,974
Speaker 2: Vatican prepares to farewell the Pontiff and elect a new

11
00:00:46,094 --> 00:00:52,174
Speaker 2: spiritual leader for the world's estimated one point three billion Catholics.

12
00:00:53,334 --> 00:00:56,334
Speaker 1: On Wednesday morning, the late Pope's body was brought from

13
00:00:56,334 --> 00:00:59,494
Speaker 1: the private chapel of the Cassa Santa Marta residence, where

14
00:00:59,494 --> 00:01:03,374
Speaker 1: he'd chosen to live, to Saint Peter's Basilica viral procession

15
00:01:03,414 --> 00:01:07,094
Speaker 1: through Santa Marta Square and the Square of the Roman Protomartis.

16
00:01:07,454 --> 00:01:10,614
Speaker 1: Francis's body has been lying in public views since then

17
00:01:10,854 --> 00:01:13,534
Speaker 1: and will be visited by the faithful paying their respects

18
00:01:13,654 --> 00:01:16,534
Speaker 1: until midnight local time tonight, where he will then be

19
00:01:16,614 --> 00:01:19,534
Speaker 1: prepared for the funeral service, which begins at ten am

20
00:01:19,614 --> 00:01:23,934
Speaker 1: Local time Saturday, six pm Australian Eastern Standard time tomorrow

21
00:01:24,094 --> 00:01:27,814
Speaker 1: and broadcast via the Vatican's website and YouTube channel. A

22
00:01:27,934 --> 00:01:30,854
Speaker 1: huge crowd is expected at the outdoor mass, which will

23
00:01:30,894 --> 00:01:34,654
Speaker 1: be presided over by Cardinal Giovanni Battista Ray, who is

24
00:01:34,694 --> 00:01:37,094
Speaker 1: the Dean of the College of Cardinals and who also

25
00:01:37,254 --> 00:01:40,094
Speaker 1: led the funeral for Pope Benedict in twenty twenty three.

26
00:01:40,654 --> 00:01:44,254
Speaker 1: Dozens of world leaders will attend, including Australia's Governor General

27
00:01:44,294 --> 00:01:47,614
Speaker 1: Sam Moston, who will head from Anzac Day celebrations in

28
00:01:47,694 --> 00:01:51,294
Speaker 1: Turkey to the event in Italy. Trade Minister Don Farrell

29
00:01:51,294 --> 00:01:54,934
Speaker 1: will also be in attendance representing Australia, as will National

30
00:01:55,094 --> 00:01:59,454
Speaker 1: MP Michael McCormack, Prime Minister Anthony Alberizi and Opposition leader

31
00:01:59,494 --> 00:02:02,494
Speaker 1: Peter Dutton will remain in Australia with the election just

32
00:02:02,574 --> 00:02:03,254
Speaker 1: a week away.

33
00:02:03,654 --> 00:02:09,734
Speaker 3: Pope France's compassion embraced all humanity, and today he will

34
00:02:09,774 --> 00:02:13,814
Speaker 3: be mourned by Catholics and non Catholics alike.

35
00:02:14,454 --> 00:02:17,614
Speaker 4: His Holiness Pope Francis served God with the utmost devotion.

36
00:02:17,734 --> 00:02:22,334
Speaker 4: Throughout his life, he lived frugally and simply above all else,

37
00:02:22,454 --> 00:02:25,934
Speaker 4: he was driven by Christ's values of mercy and forgiveness.

38
00:02:27,534 --> 00:02:31,414
Speaker 1: Royalty including Prince William, Spain's King Philippe and Queen Letitzia,

39
00:02:31,734 --> 00:02:35,534
Speaker 1: Belgium's King Philippe and Queen Matilds, and Monaco's Prince Albert

40
00:02:35,574 --> 00:02:39,574
Speaker 1: and Princess Charlene will attend, as will French President Emmanuel Macron,

41
00:02:39,774 --> 00:02:44,574
Speaker 1: Ukraine's President volodomiu Zelenski, and British PM Kiir starmer Us

42
00:02:44,694 --> 00:02:47,854
Speaker 1: President Donald Trump and his wife Milania will also be there,

43
00:02:48,174 --> 00:02:50,974
Speaker 1: despite Trump having several run ins with the late pope

44
00:02:51,014 --> 00:02:58,654
Speaker 1: over several issues, including immigration policy. In his will, Francis

45
00:02:58,694 --> 00:03:01,734
Speaker 1: requested that he be buried in a simple, underground tomb

46
00:03:01,774 --> 00:03:05,214
Speaker 1: at Saint Mary Major Basilica, rather than the more ornate

47
00:03:05,254 --> 00:03:08,694
Speaker 1: Saint Peter's Basilica, where previous popes have been laid to rest.

48
00:03:09,534 --> 00:03:12,014
Speaker 1: Funeral will start with a procession of the clergy and

49
00:03:12,094 --> 00:03:15,694
Speaker 1: the Pope's coffin. After Holy Communion, the final right of

50
00:03:15,854 --> 00:03:20,094
Speaker 1: ultimo commendatio will be performed, during which Francis's body will

51
00:03:20,134 --> 00:03:22,734
Speaker 1: be commended to God. This will be followed by a

52
00:03:22,774 --> 00:03:27,214
Speaker 1: final farewell called valedictio. While a requiem mass usually runs

53
00:03:27,214 --> 00:03:29,854
Speaker 1: for about an hour, this mass is likely to run

54
00:03:29,894 --> 00:03:33,374
Speaker 1: closer to ninety minutes to farewell. Francis, who was known

55
00:03:33,414 --> 00:03:36,054
Speaker 1: to the world as one of the most progressive popes,

56
00:03:36,334 --> 00:03:39,294
Speaker 1: appointing dozens of women into top roles in the Vatican,

57
00:03:39,614 --> 00:03:42,654
Speaker 1: but falling short of allowing them to be ordained as priests.

58
00:03:42,974 --> 00:03:46,054
Speaker 1: He was also vocal on issues such as climate change

59
00:03:46,174 --> 00:03:48,534
Speaker 1: and work to begin righting the wrongs of the Catholic

60
00:03:48,654 --> 00:03:51,774
Speaker 1: Church's role in the clergy's sexual abuse cover ups across

61
00:03:51,814 --> 00:03:55,854
Speaker 1: the globe, including here in Australia, and often involving children.

62
00:03:56,254 --> 00:03:59,174
Speaker 1: Pope Francis told his staff to take divisive action, and

63
00:03:59,254 --> 00:04:03,534
Speaker 1: unture predators were punished. Some say his role brought unprecedented

64
00:04:03,574 --> 00:04:07,134
Speaker 1: transparency to what would otherwise have been kept secret. The

65
00:04:07,254 --> 00:04:09,334
Speaker 1: say he could have gone further to shine a light

66
00:04:09,414 --> 00:04:12,374
Speaker 1: on crimes committed by members of the church, some he

67
00:04:12,454 --> 00:04:17,934
Speaker 1: knew personally. Francis also inherited a Vatican that was dealing

68
00:04:17,974 --> 00:04:21,574
Speaker 1: with allegations of corruption, telling the cardinals on his appointment

69
00:04:21,614 --> 00:04:24,774
Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen that there was no room for careerists

70
00:04:24,854 --> 00:04:27,894
Speaker 1: or social climbers amongst the clergy, saying they should not

71
00:04:27,974 --> 00:04:31,654
Speaker 1: live like princes and not dissect theology in lush salons

72
00:04:31,814 --> 00:04:34,814
Speaker 1: while there were poor people around the corner. Following the

73
00:04:34,854 --> 00:04:37,934
Speaker 1: funeral on Saturday, the Novan Diali, the nine days of

74
00:04:37,934 --> 00:04:41,534
Speaker 1: Official Morning takes place. The funeral marks the first day

75
00:04:41,534 --> 00:04:43,974
Speaker 1: of this period, with the final day on May fourth.

76
00:04:44,454 --> 00:04:47,334
Speaker 1: The Catholic Church is now in a period called the vacancy,

77
00:04:47,774 --> 00:04:50,534
Speaker 1: which happened at the moment of the pope's death, meaning

78
00:04:50,574 --> 00:04:54,734
Speaker 1: there's currently no elected pope. Irish born Cardinal Kevin Farrell,

79
00:04:54,734 --> 00:04:57,614
Speaker 1: who's a senior Vatican official, is now carrying out the

80
00:04:57,654 --> 00:05:00,854
Speaker 1: administrative and financial duties of the Holy See until a

81
00:05:00,934 --> 00:05:04,814
Speaker 1: new pope takes over. The secret meeting of cardinals, known

82
00:05:04,854 --> 00:05:08,534
Speaker 1: as the Conclove, usually begins between fifteen and twenty days

83
00:05:08,574 --> 00:05:11,614
Speaker 1: after a pope's death. Death following the period of morning.

84
00:05:11,814 --> 00:05:14,774
Speaker 1: May five seems a likely date on which it might start.

85
00:05:15,734 --> 00:05:18,454
Speaker 1: Only cardinals who are aged eighty or younger on the

86
00:05:18,534 --> 00:05:20,894
Speaker 1: day of the pope's death have a vote. There are

87
00:05:20,894 --> 00:05:24,094
Speaker 1: currently one hundred and thirty five cardinals of voting age,

88
00:05:24,214 --> 00:05:26,094
Speaker 1: and there has to be a minimum of one hundred

89
00:05:26,134 --> 00:05:29,014
Speaker 1: and twenty in the conclave, which will convene in the

90
00:05:29,014 --> 00:05:31,534
Speaker 1: Sistine Chapel, where there can be up to four votes

91
00:05:31,574 --> 00:05:35,054
Speaker 1: each day. There's no set time for the conclave to

92
00:05:35,134 --> 00:05:37,454
Speaker 1: elect a new pope, and if it carries on for

93
00:05:37,494 --> 00:05:40,254
Speaker 1: a long time, it is possible the cardinals will take

94
00:05:40,294 --> 00:05:42,894
Speaker 1: a break and have a non voting day. A two

95
00:05:42,934 --> 00:05:46,214
Speaker 1: thirds majority is required to elect a new pope. Each

96
00:05:46,254 --> 00:05:48,654
Speaker 1: time there is a vote, the ballots are then burned

97
00:05:48,694 --> 00:05:51,374
Speaker 1: with black smoke from a chimney of the Cistine Chapel,

98
00:05:51,694 --> 00:05:55,174
Speaker 1: indicating no one has been elected, or white confirming a

99
00:05:55,214 --> 00:05:58,654
Speaker 1: new pontiff has been chosen. When a pope is chosen,

100
00:05:58,694 --> 00:06:02,134
Speaker 1: there's expected to be a double confirmation to avoid any confusion,

101
00:06:02,454 --> 00:06:05,574
Speaker 1: perhaps by ringing the bells at Saint Peter's. It's then

102
00:06:05,654 --> 00:06:07,894
Speaker 1: usual that the new pope soon appears on the balcony

103
00:06:07,894 --> 00:06:10,974
Speaker 1: of Saint Peter's Basilica that overlooks the square, where an

104
00:06:11,014 --> 00:06:14,614
Speaker 1: announcement in Latin of havebermus paper, meaning we have a

105
00:06:14,694 --> 00:06:17,814
Speaker 1: pope is made alongside the new Pontiff's appearance.

106
00:06:21,094 --> 00:06:25,574
Speaker 2: Thanks Claire, federal election campaigning will pause as Lena's mark

107
00:06:25,694 --> 00:06:31,214
Speaker 2: Anzac Day, honoring Australia's fallen soldiers. Prime Minister Anthony Abernezi

108
00:06:31,254 --> 00:06:34,374
Speaker 2: will attend the dawn service at the Australian War Memorial

109
00:06:34,454 --> 00:06:38,054
Speaker 2: in Canberra, while Opposition Leader Peter Dutton will be in Brisbane.

110
00:06:38,414 --> 00:06:41,174
Speaker 2: Mister Alberzi said it was vital to step away from

111
00:06:41,214 --> 00:06:45,014
Speaker 2: campaigning to reflect on the sacrifices of the nation's defense

112
00:06:45,134 --> 00:06:49,654
Speaker 2: forces one hundred and ten years since Gallipoli. Mister Dutton

113
00:06:49,734 --> 00:06:53,254
Speaker 2: highlighted the added significance with twenty twenty five marking eighty

114
00:06:53,334 --> 00:06:56,334
Speaker 2: years since the end of World War II, acknowledging the

115
00:06:56,374 --> 00:07:00,654
Speaker 2: million Australians who served. The ABC has reported that the

116
00:07:00,694 --> 00:07:04,294
Speaker 2: man charged with murdering nineteen year old Audrey Griffin has

117
00:07:04,374 --> 00:07:07,814
Speaker 2: died in custody. New South Wales Police Sayer fifty three

118
00:07:07,894 --> 00:07:10,534
Speaker 2: year old was found unresponsively when they sell its silver

119
00:07:10,614 --> 00:07:14,254
Speaker 2: Water Correctional complex on Thursday and could not be revived.

120
00:07:14,734 --> 00:07:17,934
Speaker 2: The ABC understands he was the same man charged earlier

121
00:07:17,974 --> 00:07:21,214
Speaker 2: that week with Miss Griffin's murder. His death is not

122
00:07:21,294 --> 00:07:25,454
Speaker 2: being treated as suspicious. A Corrective Services New South Wales

123
00:07:25,494 --> 00:07:28,654
Speaker 2: spokesperson confirmed the death will be reported to the coroner,

124
00:07:28,934 --> 00:07:32,614
Speaker 2: with a public inquest to follow the corrections. Minister extended

125
00:07:32,614 --> 00:07:36,214
Speaker 2: condolences to miss Griffin's family, noting this case will now

126
00:07:36,294 --> 00:07:39,734
Speaker 2: not be able to be prosecuted through the courts. Russia

127
00:07:39,774 --> 00:07:42,934
Speaker 2: has launched its biggest assault on Kiev this year, killing

128
00:07:42,974 --> 00:07:46,534
Speaker 2: at least twelve and injuring ninety with missiles and drones.

129
00:07:46,574 --> 00:07:51,534
Speaker 2: According to Ukrainian officials, the strikes caused widespread destruction and fires,

130
00:07:51,574 --> 00:07:55,894
Speaker 2: with rescuers still recovering bodies. Hours later, US President Donald

131
00:07:55,894 --> 00:07:59,654
Speaker 2: Trump condemned the attack as not necessary and very bad timing,

132
00:08:00,174 --> 00:08:03,774
Speaker 2: urging Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop as he pushes

133
00:08:03,814 --> 00:08:06,654
Speaker 2: for a rapid Pea steal. Both Ukraine and Russia are

134
00:08:06,694 --> 00:08:09,454
Speaker 2: trying to show progress toward that goal, but the White

135
00:08:09,534 --> 00:08:13,774
Speaker 2: Pehouses warned it may abandon efforts if talks stall. Foreign

136
00:08:13,814 --> 00:08:16,934
Speaker 2: Minister Pennywong has urged Israel to lift its blockade on

137
00:08:17,014 --> 00:08:21,614
Speaker 2: Gaza and allow humanitarian aid, joining calls from the UK, France,

138
00:08:21,734 --> 00:08:25,974
Speaker 2: and Germany. Supplies including fuel and electricity have been blocked

139
00:08:26,014 --> 00:08:30,934
Speaker 2: since early March, prompting international condemnation. Labour faces pressure in

140
00:08:31,054 --> 00:08:35,414
Speaker 2: western Sydney electorates with large Muslim populations, where grassroots group

141
00:08:35,574 --> 00:08:39,854
Speaker 2: Muslim Votes Matter is backing independent candidates and urging voters

142
00:08:39,894 --> 00:08:43,414
Speaker 2: to reject politicians silent on Gaza. Both major parties have

143
00:08:43,454 --> 00:08:46,894
Speaker 2: been largely silent on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza during

144
00:08:46,894 --> 00:08:50,814
Speaker 2: the federal election campaign. Opposition leader Peter Dutton has pledged

145
00:08:50,854 --> 00:08:55,014
Speaker 2: to review visas for Gazan's if elected, citing security concerns,

146
00:08:55,334 --> 00:08:59,374
Speaker 2: a stance at Amnesty International Australia called inflammatory and baseless,

147
00:08:59,734 --> 00:09:04,254
Speaker 2: noting all visa holders have passed strict security checks. And finally,

148
00:09:04,334 --> 00:09:06,774
Speaker 2: Robert Irwin says it's a dream come true to join

149
00:09:06,814 --> 00:09:09,414
Speaker 2: the Dancing with the Stars cast in twenty twenty five,

150
00:09:09,894 --> 00:09:12,654
Speaker 2: inspired by watching his sister Bindi win the show in

151
00:09:12,734 --> 00:09:16,054
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen. At twenty one years old, Erwin is the

152
00:09:16,094 --> 00:09:19,894
Speaker 2: first celebrity confirmed for season thirty four, which typically airs

153
00:09:19,934 --> 00:09:23,574
Speaker 2: in September. The Wildlife Warrior, son of the late Steve Erwin,

154
00:09:23,654 --> 00:09:27,014
Speaker 2: is no stranger to reality TV, having starred in Criche

155
00:09:27,054 --> 00:09:29,734
Speaker 2: It's the Erwins and co host of I'm a Celebrity,

156
00:09:29,734 --> 00:09:32,294
Speaker 2: Get Me out of Here with Julia Morris, whom he
