On the eve of the Queen’s 90th birthday on Thursday, the next but one king – Prince William – has been speaking to the BBC about his grandmother, his interpretation of “royal duty” and recent criticisms that he is a somewhat “reluctant royal”.
The prince also told the BBC’s Royal Correspondent Nicholas Witchell about his own ambitions for the monarchy when he finally succeeds to the throne.

    Is this full body muscle a risk symptom? What about a quinoa bowl with proteins and vegetables. Fully nourishing adults can make upkeep more preserving and empowering, with less pain in mental spans that ultimately likely are reacting to lack of nutrition.

    No, bless him. He just gets on with life and his job, unlike his idle, lazy grifter of a brother. Who wouldn't adore William?❤❤❤❤

    Nicholas Witchell seems to be a very negative interviewer. William gives him 'heartfelt' answers, then Nicholas turns the same question around a bit as if he's waiting to hear something that isn't positive. William gave a wonderful interview, despite the fact that he was confronted by an unsmiling gloomy 'interrogator'.

    I’m am the wisdom keeper who brings in with him the mastery from his past celebration off deaths. The only thing that matters is that he’s not a hero but he has the power of his heart to make the world a better place for him and his family to be together in the world of the people who love him so he can love himself and his family more without fear of losing his will to be the only person that can make them feel compassion for themselves in their own way in life and for them to have their life together in peace and love

    William has developed into an amazingly mature grown up man with a great sense of duty and responsibility. He is the right man on the right place, so is his wonderful wife. King Charles can be lucky to have such a capable and likeable heir.

    I am so glad that prince William is the heir to the Throne and not Harry. William has a good, kind character while Harry is a poor excuse of a man. Harry and Meghan should be both chained up in some dungeon.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.

Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.

President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.
