Survivors “fed up” with listening to Pell and have demanded to meet with the Pope.

Cardinal George Pell has wrapped up his third day of giving evidence in Rome, as survivors say they are “fed up” with him and want to meet with the Pope.

Abuse survivors from Ballarat were to meet with the Cardinal during their time in Rome, but pulled out today when conditions of the meeting were revealed.

Survivors weren’t allowed any family members, media representatives or legal representatives, and conversations were to be “private in nature’.

The group of survivors took this to indicate a gag order, although this has not been confirmed by the church.
