Carlos Alcaraz has Nike, Rolex and Louis Vuitton; 15-time pole vaulter world record holder Mondo Duplantis is sponsored by Puma and Omega Watches; Formula One driver Max Verstappen represents Heineken and EA Sports; and four-time Olympic swimming champion Léon Marchand is on Louis Vuitton and Nike billboards.

There's something of a medieval coronation about this. The king who held the south has lost the support of his courtiers and the usurper will ride into London heralded as a saviour by the city.
I suggest northern France for Keir Starmer to recruit mercenaries and prime his heir who's sure to return with Macron's backing.
Si en el Tratado de Alcáçovas Castilla se hubiese quedado con Cabo Verde en vez de Canarias, hoy nos habríamos ahorrado esta humillación.
