Church and State conspired to cover-up Tuam babies horror

The revelation last Friday by the commission investigating the Tuam mother and baby home scandal that infant skeletons had been found in underground chambers at the site has led to horrified headlines, not just at home but around the world.
That's not surprising.  The story (not entirely accurate) that the remains of hundreds of children had been "dumped" in a "sewage pit" by the nuns who ran the home over several decades was shocking enough to get international coverage.  On Friday night I saw it on the BBC, Sky News, and American and European TV channels.
