British cardinal who will be in the conclave says picking the next pope is 'intimidating'
The head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales has told Sky News it's "intimidating" to be one of those responsible for choosing the next pope.
Vincent Nichols is among four UK cardinals in Rome for the Pope's funeral on Saturday. Following the funeral, and after nine days of mourning, cardinals from around the world will gather in the Vatican's Sistine Chapel to cast their votes, with white smoke announcing to the world when a new pope has been elected.
Cardinal Nichols told Sky's Anna Botting: "I hope nobody goes into this conclave, as it were, with the sole purpose of wanting to win. I think it's very important that we go in wanting to listen to each other...
It has to be together, trying to sense what God wants next. Not just for the church." He described the procession that took Pope Francis to lie in state as "the most moving thing I've ever attended here".
Describing the Pope as a "master of the gesture and the phrase.
