King Charles And The Government: One Waves, One Wobbles
King Charles, the first monarch in British history to watch a supposed “invasion” unfold with all the urgency of a man waiting for his gardener to finish the roses, armed only with a cup of Darjeeling and the constitutional inability to actually do anything. Expecting King Charles to stop illegal immigration is like expecting himContinue reading “King Charles And The Government: One Waves, One Wobbles”
