Keith Michael Patrick O'Brien (born 17 March 1938) is the current Archbishop of Saint Andrews and Edinburgh in Scotland, and is that country's only Cardinal. Cardinal O'Brien is the leader of the Catholic Church in Scotland and heads its Conference of Bishops. By virtue of these roles he is sometimes referred to by non-Scots as the 'Primate of Scotland'; however, no such title has ever been officially bestowed upon him and there is no precedent in Scotland for the position of primate.
