"The Met Police said they had deployed extra officers as “far right groups and groups linked to football clubs” travelled from around the UK to mark St George’s Day near Whitehall.

Scotland Yard said a group, some wearing masks and others draped in the St George's flag, gathered at Richmond Terrace. - the designated area for the St George’s Day celebration.

But more people turned up who tried to make their way up Whitehall towards Trafalgar Square. They tried to force their way through police who pushed back, using horses to control the crowd."

 

 

 

It's absolutely nuts that fascists are determined to turn a patron saint's day into a hatefest.

Is there honestly any other country in the world that carries on like this?

And ironically on the same day Sunak and the government put £75 billion into the defence industry to put the UK on a "war footing".

She mastered photography a while back; you might have missed it being in the news. Also, there's a lot made out of her preternatural ability to play the piano after only a scant few years of lessons, which is virtually unheard of among girls from privileged backgrounds.

If it turns out she can ride a horse, we should probably have an extra Bank Holiday in her honour or something.

In Communist Romania Elena Ceaucescu, the wife of dictator Nicolae Ceaucescu, was given many honours for Chemistry despite leaving school in 4th Grade. She got the nickname "Codoi" which is supposedly how she pronounced the symbol for Carbon Dioxide, CO2 (doi is Romanian for two)

Thank goodness the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is not some tinpot banana republic where non-entities are given awards and recognition based purely on who they've married.

Reminds me of Muttley who wouldn't do anything to help Dick Dastardly unless he got a medal first.

"Duck Dastardly". Damn autocorrect!
