2 King Charles to address 'increasing pressures of conflict' in speech as Trump criticizes British PM on Iran

King Charles III will reflect on "the increasing pressures of conflict" across the world in a "time of great challenge" during a speech planned for Monday, according to multiple reports.

"We join together on this Commonwealth Day at a time of great challenge and great possibility," a preview of the 77-year-old’s Commonwealth Day speech says.

The king's speech continued: "Across our world, communities and nations face the increasing pressures of conflict, climate change and rapid transformation. Yet it is often in such testing moments that the enduring spirit of the Commonwealth is most clearly revealed."

The speech will come a little more than a week after the U.S. and Israel launched coordinated strikes against Iran, which British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the United Kingdom didn’t take part in for the sake of their national interest.

11 About every third year for the previous 15 years, that is exactly what Tolkien is accused of.

In fact, the list of proposed banning of authors is extensive and predictable. I'm sure, somewhere, there is a list is Gainsborough on it, but not the native 20th century brutalist painters. Sorry, the neo-clown blah blah modernists.
