Welcome to the UK

I live quite locally - wish I'd been out to see it 🤣

What was the arrest charge?

Suspicion of malicious communications.

So it's apparently ok for Musk to incite violence and insurrection on a big screen in the UK but it's not ok for an individual to display filming in public that puts senior US and UK citizens in a less than good light?
Hmmm

Two tier policing, it seems 🤔

So the four arrested displayed images that are indecent and grossly offensive? On that I agree!

I am not a fan of the Royals, but this photo of Charles and Camilla made me warm to them for a moment. Their expressions say so much.

Poor Camilla was too sick yesterday to attend a funeral. She was obviously resting up for this. Putting on her game face.

Why is melania in black? And why does her hat match the orange one’s tie?
About the best/politest I can find to comment on in relation to this abomination visiting the U.K.

The video is even better. Check out the King’s face. It’s entertained me as I’m confined to our hotel room - only I could get ill on holiday.

Sorry you’re ill @BIossomtoes

They have that expression you have when you're waiting for the bus and the guy stood next to you stinks but you're too polite to say anything.

Oh no @BIossomtoes hope you feel better soon.

I have a question. Is the Fabian Society the latest subject of far right conspiracy theories?

I have seen it mentioned here and there on SM in a negative way and was puzzled, really. Then I saw a tweet from Yaxley-Lennon which read:

We unite against the insidious and cancerous forces of the Fabian Society.

Which might explain things, but it is a new one on me.

Sorry to hear you're ill, rubbish at any time, let alone on holiday!

Yes, I've noticed the proliferation of the Fabian paranoia theory.

Why choose a landlord to lead this "report" ?

Trumps speech to the journalists on his flight over told me everything I needed to know.

For Trump this is a “everyone loves me” photo OP.

He’s becoming more of a slime ball everyday of possible

I'm sitting on a rather hot bus that ain't going anywhere due to a bust wing mirror 😩

Sorry you're ill, @BIossomtoes - rotten timing.

Hope you feel better soon

I had a little Google and all I could really find was what seems to be a self-published book by an "independent" historian. The blurb is definitely on the paranoid side!

Goodness, it's relentless isn't it!
