Frederic Martel in his book In The Closet of the Vatican is merciless in his treatment of Cardinal Raymond Burke, whom he describes as 'unstraight'.
He writes: " Raymond Burke is one of those figures who distorts Catholicism: an effeminate, ultra-conservative creature who criticises the feminisation of the Church, and who is, in my view, profoundly ridiculous. Those who defend him do not serve the Church: they value pastice and fakery."
The current issue of The Tablet reports that Burke and Bannon, who have been close allies up to recently, have fallen out.
