So Charles Windsor has made a great speech to Congress on the United States. Apparently it went down well, thanking them for inviting him to address them on this “semi-quincentennial year of the Declaration of Independence”. Hmm - semi-quincentennial? Who writes these speeches? Someone who likes long words, obviously! What’s wrong with two hundred and fiftieth?
Anyway, the jokes were appreciated and the “special relationship!” was shored up once again.
Then there was a fancy dinner at the White House, where the king presented the president with the bell from the British submarine HMS Trump, which was launched in 1944 during the second world war.
There you go.
Here’s picture of different kinds of tits.
And here’s a comment on deporting immigrants.
And here is a reminder from Norman Finkelstein that stuff in Gaza is till going on. The news has gone fairly quiet but it’s still happening. We mustn’t forget.
None of this was mentioned in the King’s speech. Altogether too overtly political! So it goes!
Life goes on. Stay safe and well, everyone!
