Background briefing.
The retailer Tesco Direct has withdrawn a 'pole-dancing' kit that promises to 'unleash the sex kitten inside' from the toys and games section of its website, after protests from family groups. The company will continue to sell the Peekaboo kit as a 'fitness accessory' for adults. Pole-dancing originated in strip clubs. [CFNews; Sydney Morning Herald]

Pius XI, Quas Primas, 1925
This state of things may perhaps be attributed to a certain slowness and timidity in good people, who are reluctant to engage in conflict or oppose but a weak resistance; thus the enemies of the Church become bolder in their attacks. But if the faithful were generally to understand that it behooves them ever to fight courageously under the banner of Christ their King, then, fired with apostolic zeal, they would strive to win over to their Lord those hearts that are bitter and estranged from him, and would valiantly defend his rights.
