POPE Leo XIV, the first American pontiff, has given his first major address during his inauguration ceremony, which was attended by world leaders and thousands of faithful yesterday.

Leo marked the start of his papacy by calling for unity within the church and for it to act as a “leaven of harmony for humanity.”

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and the Duke of Edinburgh, who was representing the King, were among attendees at the outdoor Mass in the Vatican yesterday morning.
