Archbishop and his regalia

Today's diary:

RTE's Marian Finucane was talking to crime correspondent Paul Williams about the late Fr Michael Cleary and his children.

The late Michael Cleary was noted for his conservative stance on sexual morality.

The lead picture on page 11 of today's Irish Times is a picture of Archbishop Josef Wesolowski. The 66-year old Polish former papal nuncio is under house arrest in the Vatican.

His PC contained almost 100,000 files of paedophile porn. While papal nuncio in Santo Domingo he is accused of having paid for sexual favours from seven 'shoe-shine' boys on the ocean front promenade.

The picture shows a man dressed in a white 'frock' with red buttons. He is sporting a gold ring, a gold chain, immaculate white shirt cuffs and purple biretta.

He was appointed as nuncio to the Central Asian countries of KazakhstanTajikistanKyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. On 24 January 2008 he was appointed nuncio to the Dominican Republic.

Who made this chap an archbishop?
