Kate breaks tradition at Wimbledon - as she watches match beside tennis star https://t.co/wDZqvEvRQ0

@MdcruzM Why is she? Has she worked for that? No.

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

Free tickets and no queue for Kate, and she’ll put this down as work.

Kate stops for selfies and chats with tennis fans as she delights people in the queue with her first appearance at this year's Wimbledon https://t.co/PK686WL4qz

Huge if true. Person goes to Wimbledon.

New: The Princess of Wales, patron, has arrived at Wimbledon… she has met fans in the queue and stewards and will meet members of Shine Camera Club (and watch a game, of course) 📸 PA

The heir and the chair.

[Ben Kentish @BenKentish]

Did she really just say that?

Kemi Badenoch: “There are only three ways to find the missing £5bn [for defence]: increase borrowing, increase taxes or cut welfare.”

One of the most blatant falsehoods I’ve ever heard uttered in Parliament. The UK government spends £1.2 trillion a year and the Leader of the Opposition has just told the Commons that the only way to find £5bn of savings is cutting welfare.

Members of the royal family have been confronted by two separate protests during Scotland's royal week 🚨 https://t.co/pbVTYr5Zxa

Two days ago she was doing it alone.

A guy from Curry's carried a washing machine up to my 4th floor flat, but he didn't get Daily Mail headlines or receive £20m a year of taxpayers' money ?

[The National @ScotNational]

Anti-monarchy activists have confronted the King, Queen and other members of the royal family outside the Order of the Thistle ceremony in Edinburgh 🚨

Protestors chanted and held placards reading 'What did you know?' opposite St Giles' Cathedral

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

@MENnewsdesk That’s not true though is it. It’s a feeble stunt for the press.

[Republic @RepublicStaff]

Prince Andrew. The class system. It's all connected. @Otto_English and @narindertweets on the monarchy. #AbolishTheMonarchy

[Republic @RepublicStaff]

🚨🚨 Charles has been asked by protestors, 'What did you know about Andrew?' as he entered the Order of the Thistle ceremony in Edinburgh! We won't let the royals dodge accountability. #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy #Epstein

With an entourage, photographers, cameraman and security, and a press briefing. But sure, quietly on her own.

[Queen Esther @XOQueenEsther]

Princess Catherine quietly completed the Three Peaks Challenge with no entourage, no fanfare, and no fuss.

Meanwhile, Megahn Markle needed security escorts just to get to her seat at the Balenciaga show… despite being surrounded by celebrities far bigger and more influential than she is.

Nothing highlights insecurity quite like turning an ordinary walk to a seat into a display of perceived importance. People with real gravitas don’t need choreographed displays of importance.

Police stop an Ambulance with flashing lights so a VIP can pass.

One video that shows everything wrong with the UK.

We need to stop letting the rich piss all over us.

[Republic @RepublicStaff]

As @SoozUK outlines, we shouldn't let anyone tell us to accept cuts whilst the royals are getting half a billion a year. #AbolishTheMonarchy

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

@celebitchy Over half a billion is more accurate

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

Again, shifting the responsibility onto ordinary people, ignoring wealth inequality and political responsibility as the truth is uncomfortable for him.

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

@TabbyParent Indeed, support the government could provide quickly.

[Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇱 🐧 @GrahamSmith_]

Great. But wouldn’t it be better to have no one sleeping rough. It’s a problem government could solve overnight.

[Angela Rayner @AngelaRayner]

Last year I committed Labour to scrapping a cruel and outdated law that criminalised people for sleeping rough.

I’m proud that commitment is being delivered. The Vagrancy Act is repealed today, drawing a line under two centuries of injustice.

He is notoriously lazy. We pay him a private income of more than £20m a year. We fund the monarchy to the tune of half a billion a year. He carries a chair and that’s supposed to be noteworthy?
