During the #Coronation of #KingCharles, he was anointed with fragrant chrism oil prepared by the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem Theophillos III, Byzantine hymns were given and Charles III was dressed as a Byzantine Emperor before receiving the Imperial Signs. Image
All these underline once again the primacy of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople @EcuPatriarch within the framework of Orthodox Christianity and its Byzantine legacy that is kept alive by the Orthodox Greeks worldwide.
Plus the two Holy Byzantine Icons of Jesus Christs and Virgin Mary inside #WestministerAbbey underline all the above

1/. In the centre of the swirling madness of London traffic there’s a green oasis: Buckingham Palace Gardens

At his #Coronation, we hope #KingCharles will announce the creation of a new London park - #QueenElizabeyhMemorialGardens - a gift to the nation👇
2/. The proposal - a decade in the making - is to use a strip of the gardens to create a park that would be a legacy to the Queen & transform this congested corner of London

Arched entrances would be cut into the wall & a new fence would built to ensure Palace security & privacy Image
3/. A place of tranquility & beauty,
#QueenEzliabethMemorialGardens is attracting high profile support & is described as “a beautiful idea that will be very popular with people both living in or visiting London” by @ZackPolanski, @LondonAssembly member

Many professionals have identified that #HarryandMeghan have narcissistic tendencies. This 🧵outlines a destructive narcissist & what to do. It seems The King has been dealing with them & the stupid PR is their meltdown of being ignored. Keep Calm #KingCharlesIII & Carry On.
When you’re dealing with a narcissist you’re dealing with an entitled childish ingrate who lacks boundaries & has very little, if any empathy & conscience. In addition, you’re dealing with a master manipulator. Someone who is willing to go to any lengths, lengths that you and I
cannot even fathom, just to get their way, just to win the right fight, just to look like the good person, just to look like either the hero or the victim, they’ll go to any lengths. So you want to be sure you choose you’re battles wisely. It’s in you’re best interest to back

I went to look for the tears but got bored so here is a thread of the good, the bad and the in between.

First, they got played and they hate it.
It hurts Mummy….. it hurts so bad.
Yes being a Royal is a pain in the arse but the trauma and generational pain is because #KingCharles is cruel and neglected his children. Brenda for all her faults managed to cultivate a fondness with some of her children and grandchildren

The Royal Family and UK media were hoping Harry and Meghan would never claim the Prince and Princess titles for their children, which would have allowed them to spin all kinds of narratives from they were punished to the magnanimous #KingCharles bestowed them (PR points).
The most dangerous of narratives was the one of excluding the mixed race children and then blaming the parents.

Of course the media and Royal family surrogates are trying to muddy the waters by claiming they do not understand this move considering Harry and Meghan
Have spoken openly about why they had to leave the UK and step back from Royal duties. Besides misrepresenting the reasons behind why Harry and Meghan chose to leave- which had a lot to do with media abuse and harassment, their choices on how they live their lives has no bearing

#KingCharles inherited 45,667 acres of land (without having to pay inheritance tax)

The Crown owns 226,000 acres across the UK

After the #Queen died, we unveiled our proposal for a new memorial park in London: the #QueenElizabethMemorialGardens

All we need is 2 acres of land👇 ImageImageImageImage
Our vision is to create a place of tranquility in a walled garden carved from a sliver of the 42-acre Buckingham Palace Gardens: a living legacy to #QueenElizabeth

It’ll also be an act of care towards London & its ecosystem #QueenElizabethMemorialGardens

Originally conceived to to mark the #Queen’s 90th birthday, the idea for #QueenElizabethMemorialGardens has been developed over many years

The gardens would include woodland, wild flowers, a butterfly meadow as well as a statue of #QueenElizabeth.

There’s something rotten in🇬🇧btwn the Windsors,🇬🇧media &🇬🇧orgs. The Independent recently hired former Daily Mail & Mail on Sunday editor-in-chief Geordie Greig—a close friend of Camilla, the Queen Consort—as the paper’s new editor-in-chief.
Camilla is very close to Geordie Grieg. How close? Charles & Camilla hired Daily Mail’s editor, Tobyn Andreae, as their public relations chief after recommendation by Geordie Grieg. They hired him despite Harry & Meghan’s lawsuits against DM for defamation & invasion of privacy.
Overnight, The Independent stopped being independent after Grieg, Camilla’s dear friend, was hired as its editor-in-chief. The Independent is now targeting its missiles on Prince Harry& Meghan. Below is the Independent disparaging Harry for seeking therapy for his trauma.

I'm not particularly invested in #HarryandMegan but I find myself defending them often because of the other topics raised by people's responses to their story in which I am invested, such as misogyny, patriarchy, racism, classism & bullying. I shall thread at my leisure... 1/?
Disclaimer: When I say bullying, I don't mean "fun shade" like reading the Real Housewives', reacting to the big game, or silly gossip about pop culture. Celebs kind of sign up for that. I mean accounts that exist solely to rage Tweet over #MeganMarkle's every move. 2/?
I'm not part of #SussexSquad, haven't read Omid Scobie's book, listened to Archetypes, or watched all of #HarryandMeghanNetflix. I will, however, read Harry's book because I like memoirs & autobiographies. (I'm currently reading Bono's 'Surrender'. Highly recommended!) 3/? Image

The source of Britain's wealth was / is the slave trade.
Reparations are owed worldwide, and if they were paid, this family would be broke.

A THREAD:

It is very untrue that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were not protected from mistruths. I revealed on @einstein_evans what happened:

1. #HarryandMeghan had an obsession for the press/media/PR. They wanted to always respond to EVERY story, which became tasking ...
... for KP and BP staff. #PrinceHarry would write VERY RUDE emails and scream at people over the phone demanding that EVERY story be corrected, removed, etc. with THREATS!! (Hundreds of these emails exist and were part of the bullying investigation).
2. However, the press team was getting overwhelmed. They were dealing with the nightmare of Prince Andrew and Virginia Guiffre, as well as leaks and planted lies (from Meghan Markle, YES, Meghan) against William and Catherine. (Yes, MM was briefing her friends and others)

The British royals have an est. $34.3B in assets, with #KingCharles set to receive ~$500M without paying inheritance tax.

At its peak, the British empire colonized parts of every continent but Antarctica and subjugated 1 out of 5 people on Earth.

A 🧵on its destructive impact: Image
One major source of Britain’s wealth was the slave trade — it enslaved 6M West Africans in a little over 100 years.

It compensated slave owners with around $21B after it outlawed slavery in 1834.

Descendants of enslaved people were not paid reparations. Image
Britain forced large amounts of opium on China in exchange for goods during the 19th century.

About 10% of Chinese people became regular users of the drug.

In the resulting Opium Wars:
▪️Britain defeated China, forced the signing of “unequal" treaties
▪️took over Hong Kong Image

From coins, notes to national anthem, here's how #KingCharlesIII will replace #QueenElizabethII

#QueenElizabeth

businessinsider.in/international/…

By @jainrounak
#KingCharlesIII takes over as the British monarch after the death of #QueenElizabethII, and that will lead to a demonetisation in the UK. New coins and currency notes will be minted and printed after the designs are approved.

#QueenElizabeth
The death of #QueenElizabethII has given the British monarchy its first King after over 70 years. The old coins and notes will be slowly phased out of circulation.

The old coins and notes featuring #QueenElizabeth II will continue to be legal tender for the time being.
