2. What a really beautiful and heartfelt message.

It's strange days indeed when the Prince of Wales clearly understands the fears and sacrifices of the ordinary people of the UK when the so-called House of Commons even more clearly does not.

3. Well done, Charles!

4. And that is exactly why

they still have a monarchy.

5. Not a big fan, but I completely believe he is sincere and I admire his efforts

to send comfort to the citizens of the UK. Well done to him. The UK is lucky in this regard, because even a man as privileged as Prince Charles knows the gravity of the situation, knows to think of others and reach out to them in a way that none of the trump gang will ever understand.

6. I always get a creepy feeling when DU members praise royalty

Don’t like them and don’t get why they are still i official office.

But I also get that as Liberal American it works for the Democratic nations that are still have an official monarch.

Heaven forbid our leader give such a talk showing true gratitude to those who are keeping things going at risk to themselves.

And I truly do not think trump could even pronounce half the words he used or define a quarter of them.

Royalty or not, the guy is an impressive speaker. In an upperclass British kind of way.

12. He's filling a void; Boris Johnson is similarly bereft of empathy

7. Take it from a staunch anti-monarchist:

what I wouldn't give for some REAL leadership like this at this hour.

Prince Charles speaks better and with more authority on his worst day than Tangerine Tyrant does on his best.

8. Fully agreed. n/t.

9. Trying to image Moron or any of his lackeys speaking ...

with such kindness, thoughtfulness and inclusiveness...

Nope. Can't do it.

Ich Dien Motto of a prince of Wales. I serve.

10. What? No references to medical staff absconding with supplies out the back door?

What kind of a touchy feely message is this Prince trying to send with this speech?


I'm being sarcastic of course. I wish I could go to bed and not wake up until I hear that President Biden is now our President.

11. Worse, HRH failed to do an incoherent rant about his TV ratings

Not done, don't you know. Joining you on the bench

The third of November can't get here soon enough.
