  1. Cardinals have elected a new Pope as white smoke has risen from the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican City.

    The new pontiff was selected on what was the second day of the conclave.

    The 267th Pope will soon be revealed at the balcony of St Peter’s Basilica.

    *This is a breaking story and will be updated.*

  2. Was it Trump? He said there’s a big announcement coming..

  3. I wonder if it’s me. How do you find out if you’ve won? Do they just email you or what?

  4. Great, now another day of newsreaders saying ,” pope, pontiff, pope, pontiff, pope, pontiff” etc

  5. They picked an American

    I’m sure Trump will take all the credit

  6. An American pope! Wow, the jokes about Trump weren’t too far off!

  7. The number of comments and upvotes makes one thing obvious – nobody cares!
