https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-62834633 Not looking too good for Queen Elizabeth with family members all rushing to be by her side. But at 96 years of age, I say she's lived a full life and it might be her time to be reunited with the late King. I hope she recovers though! The Queen is under medical supervision at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, a statement from Buckingham Palace says Her doctors are concerned for her health, following further evaluation this morning, it says But the palace adds the 96-year-old monarch "remains comfortable" Prince Charles, Camilla and Princess Anne are at Balmoral and Prince William is travelling there Prince Harry and Meghan are also making their way to Scotland, as are Prince Andrew and Prince Edward Prime Minister Liz Truss says "the whole country will be deeply concerned by the news" The Archbishop of Canterbury said he was sending his prayers and the first ministers of Scotland and Wales joined well-wishers in sending their thoughts

President Xi and his wife recently visited the UK. The UK rolled out the red carpet for him and dished out all sorts of niceties to make the Chinese President feel good. They even got the Duchess of Cambridge to wear this stunning red dress at the official state banquet. This is no ordinary red, this is Communist Chinese Party Red. A most deliberate choice. Well, I gotta say that the Duchess of Cambridge looks really cool. It helps that she is tall. In this picture, President Xi bows his head, showing his respect to royalty (and a lady of course). Some video compilation and other pictures from the trip here. You can see Kung Fu Panda and even Jackie Chan. Earlier, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge hosted the Chinese President and his wife at some function in London. Kate wore this lacy elegant dress.
