Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announce they will visit Colombia

mol.im/a/13698271

Another country on the "Don't travel" list.

"But the UK and US governments have both issued security alerts over travelling to Colombia amid fears over crime, terrorism, civil unrest and kidnapping - and Harry's decision to visit comes amid his ongoing battle for his security when in Britain.
The UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office 'advises against all but essential travel to parts of Colombia'. And the US Department of State issued a travel advisory for Colombia stating: 'Reconsider travel due to crime and terrorism. Exercise increased caution due to civil unrest and kidnapping. Some areas have increased risk.'"

Perhaps he thinks this is the way to get his security reconsidered? Personally I'd say the opposite.
If he still had UK security I'd expect them to do a risk assessment and say "NO".
Why should security personnel be put at risk by being required to travel to these dangerous destinations.

It doesn't take long for the internet to deliver.

Excellent 👌

@GotATextInColombia 😂poor Davide. Maybe he can bring some word salad.

Have we had a word salad yet? We have a few phrases on the bingo card.

Maybe some Spanish word salad as she is fluent allegedly.

Mylovelygreendress · 15/08/2024 19:41

Apparently Meghan gave the VP a gift . Do you think it was jam ?

GotATextInColombia · 15/08/2024 19:43

I can hear it now.

Takes to podium and states

“Ich bin ein ensalada de palabras”

And everyone claps and cries from their left eye.

If that's correct, this is definitely the right opportunity to strut her stuff - big "wow" for little effort

OlympicWomen · 15/08/2024 19:44

That's just beautiful, @GotATextInColombia 😭

No 51 perhaps?

Anyone know the Spanish for "I can relate to the poverty in your country, for I always got the smaller bedroom in whatever castle or palace I lived in"

simplemoments · 15/08/2024 19:49

I want to know if there is a link between the whole columbian connection and chief of staff Josh Kettler leaving . There has to be something surely …..

InsomniacIda · 15/08/2024 18:49

Maybe Putin will invite them to tour Russia next ?

I have everything crossed 🤞

GotATextInColombia · 15/08/2024 19:49

Ah. You made a poco mistake there Olympic.

You have assumed Harry will be allowed to speak.

OlympicWomen · 15/08/2024 19:51

Good point. We shall see if that permission is granted 🙏

Manypaws · 15/08/2024 19:52

What could possibly go wrong?

GrouchyKiwi · 15/08/2024 19:52

The length of the waistcoat is a little off (and I don't care if that's the fashion now), but otherwise that's a lovely, appropriate look.

Looking forward to the rest of the tour. Hopefully there's a good mix of pretty clothes, batshittery, and faux pas (what's the plural, anyone?) to come.

LizzieBennett73 · 15/08/2024 19:56

It's a nice suit, fitted well but let down by black shoes and a white bag.

Harry looks absolutely miserable as sin. How long can he carry on being dragged around by the hand like this?

Maybe there were certain ill advised engagements on the itinerary and he did not want to be implicated in anything potentially sensitive or morally if not legally questionable.

OlympicWomen · 15/08/2024 20:00

@HurrayOhYes what were the engagements?

MummyJ12 · 15/08/2024 20:01

i agree about the shoes, metallic gold, nude or blue would have been a better choice. Otherwise really like the outfit, it fits perfectly and is appropriate like others have said.

Quite.
The use of reins would at least allow him the illusion of freedom.

Maybe he could get one of those little lion backpacks with the reins attached. Grin

He looks thunderous to me.

Maybe being dragged around is getting to be a drag? Or maybe his skin's starting to peel? 😮

MrsLeonFarrell · 15/08/2024 20:21

Meghan looks lovely, that's a weirdly large bag for the occasion. Maybe the bag is the gift?

I hope they achieve something positive for those they are visiting.

GotATextInColombia · 15/08/2024 20:23

There was once a meme about that. Hold on LaMarschallin

I thought it might be helpful to put a little US flag on his vest.

They can send him home to the right country if he gets lost…
