The new Archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh has indicated he believes the Vatican will take no further action against his disgraced predecessor, Cardinal Keith O’Brien.

Archbishop Leo Cushley told a newspaper his “impression” was that Rome had finished with the matter.

Cardinal O’Brien, who was Britain’s most senior Catholic cleric, stepped down in February after three priests and a former priest made allegations of inappropriate behaviour against him.
