The #DailyTelegraph is off its meds, yet again.

The #Torygraph wants yer man #KingCharles to grovel to #Trump in place of #Starmer. 🙄

I didn't read the article, but if you are feeling masochistic, go to https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/03/19/king-visit-trump-save-relatioship-iran-war/

@2legged This is an odd time. If you were to divide Britain into two groups of people, the ones who would like the "special relationship" to continue, and those who would like it to end and for us to distance ourselves somewhat from the US, I suspect you would see some odd bedfellows in these camps. If Charles III does go over, it could go well for either camp. He might calm the waters a bit, or the Orange Arse may insult him to widespread public horror.

@kbm0 The most important point about the "#SpecialRelationship" is that it doesn't actually exist. It's more of an unrequited crush.

@2legged Ha ha ha. As an USAian, that is an extraordinary amount of stupid.

@KanaMauna The #Torygraph is the world's poshest repository of advanced stupid.

@2legged @Lazarou that's a great idea. I'm told the americans are very fond of English kings and their politics.

@2legged Is this the same Telegraph who say the Taliban are much more feminist than Keir Starmer, because the Taliban "knows exactly what a woman is" ?

The Taliban knows exactly what a woman is

It is an insult to women to suffer not only human rights abuses, but squirming policy makers who pretend to care without defining them
