I would have thought that a live-in yoga instructor would be regarded as an employee for the purposes of tax or national insurance. Surely the instructor is not just given a one off payment every year. Hopefully the taxman will be taking a close look at this arrangement.

Does anyone under 45 know who Prince Edward is? Don’t think I’ve seen him for 25 years but the firm’s undermanned so he has to step up.

An opportunity to ring up Tory councillors for silly quotes
STINGE KINGS Inside the 87 unpatriotic councils spending NOTHING on King’s coronation including Charles’ own tight-fisted town hall
They include Camden Council in North West London — home to Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.

But the Lib Dem-led Cotswold administration has no plans to mark his crowning ceremony.

Local Tory MP Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown said: “I think it’s an utter disgrace. They could at least find something, particularly with our royal connections — I think people are happy with our Royal connections here.

There is anger at Labour-led Sunderland City Council’s lack of funds for the May festivities.

The leader of the Tory opposition there, Antony Mullen, said: “It is disgraceful that the council has chosen to allow a niche political view held by a small number of hard-left councillors to prevent residents across our city who want to celebrate the Coronation.”

And why is Sunderland council short of funds?

Could be something to do with 13 years of chronic underfunding by central government. A government who just happened to find £100 million down the back of the sofa to pay for a "slimmed-down" weekend of celebrations to mark the occasion of on old sponger getting a new hat.

Tee, and indeed, hee

French strikers won’t provide red carpets for King Charles’s ill-timed visit

With uncollected rubbish lining Paris streets, critics are comparing the optics of the royal arrival to 1789

I was asked today about Operation Golden Orb.

I died just a little inside as I resisted the urge to channel Samuel L Jackson and scream "English, mother fucker. Do you speak it?"

Just wondering, seeing as Chaz 3 is in Germany, if he’s asked due to his ancestors if he’s eligible for a German passport

An excellent opinion piece on Chaz3's heavily symbolic visit to the church of St Nikolai in Hamburg.

Making clear European statements, and an excellent summation of how we should look at our history.
