Charles is pretty good at this stuff and if it keeps Trump off balance that would be a good thing. If we cancel it looks like a deliberate snub but if we go ahead with it like nothing is wrong it makes Trump and his constant attacks on the UK look like the petty bullshit they really are. I think it makes the UK look like the adults in the room.

You don’t *postpone* something like that it’s either cancel or don’t cancel and then deal with the political fallout that comes from either option

They don’t want Charlie to meet people in the Epstein files? Bit late for that!

He definitely will embarrass the UK and US by shit talking Starmer, lamenting the erosion of “special relationship” etc. He has no decorum and where as once the Monarch may have been a revered figure in Trumps eyes, I suspect that he now regards himself to have surpassed and will not hesitate to belittle, humiliate and revile King Charles. I personally do not hold reverence for the royal family but it is the principal of enabling the vulgarity of Trump to perform this charade that I resent.

Embarras the monarchy? Well quite. They’ve been knocking it out of the park lately, we shouldn’t interrupt their winning streak.

Charles is used to hanging out with nonces so he should be fine

I would cancel the state visit because Trump is a facist orange paedophile who has broken international law on several occasions, as well as slandering our veterans, belitting our democratically elected government and imposing economic restrictions on the UK because we had the gaul to say no to his latest idiotic plan.
I couldn’t care less about the Royal Family…

Isn’t this still just simple maths?
I could be wrong but I think we still have slightly better tariff rates than most
So as long as the savings on that are worth sending the king over there to tickle his tummy
It’s may be worth a visit
If I’m behind the news and there is zero financial worth to doing this
Like everyone else with more than 2 brain cells
I’d like to see him open another letter that tells him to cry harder, as charlie isn’t coming anymore
Untill then we use the monarchy to suit the needs of our country
Davy seems to be the biggest cheerleader of “no visit” and like him, i expect anyone saying “cancel now” is working without any numbers, and living where there are no financial consequences in their alternate version of reality (aka popularism)

Maybe send his brother instead, I know that he and Trump have already met. I think that Israel has photos of it.

I mean, the monarchy should be pretty embarrassed by a lot of things that have already happened.

Or we ghost Trump and have him waiting for a plane that never turns up, meanwhile the special McDonald’s he ordered for the state banquet gets cold.

I would say go ahead with it.
