• King Charles and Queen Camilla host a Ramadan dinner at Windsor Castle, the first Muslim religious event in its 1000-year history.

In geometry we learned that through two points a line may be drawn. If we draw a line through these two points, it is clearly going downhill. At some point, which may be coming sooner than we expect, the United Kingdom will cease to exist as an actual nation with actual citizens and an actual common spirit. It will be merely a geographic area where diverse people with diverse religions, diverse languages, and diverse customs live in constant hostility.
