The bishops of England and Wales have put the post-Brexit future of the United Kingdom at the top of a list of priority issues for Catholic voters to consider.

The Macron-Le Pen face-off posed a singular challenge to any Catholic trying to make a faith-informed vote.

Macron won the second-round presidential ballot with 66.1 percent of votes against 33.9 percent taken by Marine Le Pen.

The U.K. populace at large did not appear to share the delight of the media and the political classes as the shortest parliament in 45 years came to an abrupt end.

My point is that the Catholics in France have to realize that no candidate can match the real expectations of Catholic voters.

There is considerable overlap between French conservatives and French Catholics.
