There is a Twitter feed (with its seven "followers" - at least one of whom was a Trad-mole, ahem) that you can follow. However, at 5.45am it really wasn't saying much. Maybe after breakfast?

Somehow, though, we're sure that we won't have heard the last of the "wisdom and conversation" (read fruitlessly whistling in the wind as the post-conciliar pews continue to empty) that "all" were to "benefit from".
And just when we had our post prepared to tell you how to save yourself sixty quid!
Not to worry.
Basically, if you want to know why we haven't yet seen the "fruits" of Vatican II (although it depends what they mean by "fruits" - sure, wherever you wish to go on that one...see if you can spot any dog-whistling "rainbow" coding on the conference homepage) then it's this simple: two fellas called Wojytla and Ratzinger stopped it all in its tracks and it's all only just got "back on track" - around March 2013 time (not sure what happened then).
There you go, it's that simple. Apparently.
