Comedian and singer-songwriter Tim Minchin has released a single, Come Home (Cardinal Pell), calling on George Pell to return to Australia to give evidence to the royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse. In the song, which has been viewed hundreds of thousand of times, Minchin labels Australia’s most senior Catholic a ‘coward’ and a ‘pompous buffoon’. All proceeds from the song will go towards a campaign raising money to send child sexual abuse survivors and their supporters to Rome to see Pell give evidence via videolink on 29 February
