U2 frontman Bono said he could see the pain on Pope Francis’s face on Wednesday when he told him “it looks to some people that the abusers are being more protected than the victims”.

“Having just come from Ireland we talked about the pope’s feelings about what has happened in the Church,” Bono said of his half-hour meeting with Francis at the Vatican.
