I'm John Batchel with my colleague and friend Gregory Copley, Defense and Foreign Affairs,

and the author of Noble State, which is an analysis of constitutional monarchy, which is what Britain has.

The head of state is not the same as the head of government. Kirstarmer is the prime minister. He is the leading minister in the Labour Party, which has an overwhelming majority in Parliament.

Last time I looked it up, it was 165. It's a big majority. Of course, that leads to no cohesion whatsoever, and there's strife and unhappiness in Parliament over Mr.

Starrmer, over all the other leadership, as I understand it, including something that

they've just momentarily invented from my attention, the Green Party, which did very well in a by-election.

So, Parliament is, as usual, incoherent. However, the king is not, and the king is due in the United

States this summer, I believe, but this year certainly, to celebrate,

to participate in the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of this republic.

And yet there are concerns in Britain about that visit.

And Gregory, that's as much as I know so far. The original visit,

as I recall, was the summertime. Has that changed? Yes, it has. And by the way, the book is not

about constitutional monarchies, but the lessons which constitutional monarchies can offer to

modern governance. And that's been particularly evidence since King Charles came to the throne in Britain

in that he's been able to undertake complex diplomacy at a strategic level

without getting into political differences.

And inevitably, there was going to be a political difference between

the nationalistic politics of President Donald Trump and the globalist, utopianist,

socialism of Prime Minister Kirstama in the United Kingdom with his Labour government.

So the United States and Britain have been at odds for the last couple of years, or 18 months

or so, in particular, and King Charles was going to help to resolve that, and President Trump

was anxious that he'd do so.
