Palace releases new portrait

A smiling family portrait of the King, his son who is the first in line to the throne and their wives has been released by Buckingham Palace.

The image of King Charles III and his Queen Consort, standing alongside the Prince and Princess of Wales, was taken at Buckingham Palace on 18 September, just 10 days after Queen Elizabeth II’s death.

The senior royals are wearing black as the image was taken while they were in mourning for the Queen – leading the nation in grief, but also carrying out official engagements.

Charles, 73, is standing with his left hand held at the top of his pocket, while his right arm is gently tucked around Camilla’s waist.

William, 40, stands next to his father and wife Catherine as all the family group looks straight at the camera and smiles. The photograph was taken before Charles and Camilla hosted a Buckingham Palace reception for world leaders on the eve of the Queen’s funeral.

'Stop and search' shows that we live in a two-tier society

A few years ago, I went to Westfield in Stratford, east London. I find going shopping a bore at the best of times, so the idea of a place where all the stores I might want to go to are under one roof – a shopping centre, if you will – sounded super convenient, if also my idea of a living hell.
