Oh! I have just read about the 1944 submarine bell presented to the narcissist by Charles - what a stroke of genius whoever thought of that.

And Charles' so witty comment,
^Should you ever need to get hold of us, just give us a ring!^

Excellent.
10/10!

Not just any ship's bell, it was from the WW2 submarine HMS Trump 👏👏👏

To use an RN expression ‘Bravo Zulu’ Sir(e). Means well done and really should be followed by ‘splice the mainbrace’ (be issued with a free tot of rum to celebrate a very difficult job completed highly successfully)

I am not a Royalist but l.must say that King Charles and Queen Camilla did an excellent job on their visit to the USA.

Giving Trump the gift of a British ships bell from WW2 was sheer genius. Trump was really chuffed that he was having his massive ego stroked. He visibly lapped it up.

And Charles closing quip.about giving us a bell if USA was very British sense of humour joke.

All l can say to Charles is that his mother would go been proud of him and Camilla.

Or as Trump would say "He did a great job"

The current leader of NATO - (R4 news just now) praised King Charles on his subtle but effective approach.

This is in relationship to Trump stamping his toddler foot and reducing the number of US servicemen and women in Germany by 5.000.

This is hardly significant given that 31.000 will remain, a pretty token gesture, but it was done by Trump for a remark made by Merz against Trumps war in Iran.

He delivered a great speech, rather witty.
I think he looked as though he enjoyed his visit to the USA.

It was really a master class in how to do it. Feel very proud of the King and Queen.

I'm a republican ( the British sort) and an Amnesty supporter, but am happy to say that, on this occasion, Amnesty were completely wrong, and King Charles was completely right in every way.

Not my king or queen either as I'm European, married to an English man, but I like them and the RF in general. (with exceptions)
I especially admire Camilla's work in highlighting victims of Domestic Violence.
Abd yes, she dresses so well for her figure and age

But maybe we should be able to vote for them?

Well said Calendargirl 👏👏

^Not my king, queen. I didn’t vote for them^

None of us did. But I would have done if I could.

And they are our King and Queen, whether you like it or not.

^Viva la Republique!^

It's Vive la République if you want to quote the French, Samwam.

And it's not that far across the Channel if you fancy moving to la République, Samwam 😀 🇨🇵

Viva la Republique!

I don't think anyone can feel happy about Andrew and how the royal family have handled it.

But on this occasion Charles has done a good job.

I do hope that the U.K. doesn’t twiddle around, still thinking that we can save this special relationship.

We can’t.

Not even I suspect if the Democrats get in next time.

We must plough our own furrow and look to our best interests, both in defence, trade and geo-political relationships.

Canada is doing just that, and looking towards Europe. We would be sensible to follow this example.

Totally agree. IMO our 'special relationship' dissolved some years ago.

I look towards the European leaders now, and Canada.

King Charles did his mother proud, I think - her years of training him have finally paid off it seems. Although I suspect she would have had a snarky comment for Trump if he had dared to put words in her mouth or call her 'Elizabeth'.

Viva la Republique!

Not my king, queen. I didn't vote for them.

Gordon Brown wrote in the New Statesman that there should be no cover up of Andrew, his huge spending habits as trade envoy, making money for himself, dodgy business dealings, his friendship with Jeffery Epstein. The late queen and Charles, William were told about Andrews activities but didnt want to know, they knew about him and hid it. A cover up.

So what do you think of Charles now just protecting the monarchy his privilege, and not the country.

^I'm not one for thinking women in power should be seen as clothes horses but I must say Camilla looked fantastic! She showed Melania a thing or two about ageing stylishly.^

Yes, Camilla looked lovely - and she is 78!
Melania is only 56 and she looked lovely too, added to which she is very tall - and she was a model 🙂

Melania may well have been a model, but her clothes often seem badly fitted to her body shape /height. Or she gets the shoes wrong. Presumably her outfits are designer made to measure, she employs a wardrobe advisor?

I'm reminded of Sarah and her daughters; (and Meghan) much money spent only to miss the target.

Camilla and Charles looked perfectly presented and stylish in immaculately tailored outfits. They really know how to wear their clothes.

I hope that chic one-upmanship wasnt wasted on the Americans

I'm not a fan of the whole Royal thing but this visit was a triumph for the Royal couple.

I am afraid that much of it though, will be lost on the Amercan ego...they really haven't a clue and they all looked like a complete bunch of amateurs, even to having the Union flag upside down several times...

I completely agree.

I am a supporter of Amnesty but although I understand their stance only too well, I think in this case the King did the right thing in going ahead with the visit.

If there there were any mileage in upsetting Trump by cancelling in terms of easing his murderous impulses to join Netenyahoo in the quest for genocide then there would have been a case for doing so.

As it was, King Charles was given the opportunity to make a speech which made it very clear to anyone with half a brain that he does not agree with or condone what Trump is setting out to achieve.

The only trouble is, of course, Trump himself is too thick to understand the subtext of the speech and he grinned like a moron throughout the speech.

He is a moron.

Our King did his job extremely well, both he and Camilla conducted themselves professionally and spoke with integrity.

The Trump is too stupid to understand that our K&Q were doing their job, they’re not his mates!

Oh dear, I didn't notice the flag 🇬🇧
