BBC: What’s the Monarchy For?

Broadcaster David Dimbleby has reported on countless royal occasions – from weddings to funerals and jubilees. But often he feels his role has been to help the palace and the people inside it present themselves as they want to be seen.

Now, as recent events put the family under the spotlight, Dimbleby probes politicians and royal insiders on fundamental questions about the institution at the heart of our national life.

In this episode, we are told the monarch is politically neutral and would never influence the running of the country – but is that really true?

How much power does the king or queen really have? And in a world where political leaders are continuingly under attack, what role is there for our unelected head of state?

Featuring interviews with royal insiders alongside political players such as David Cameron and Jacob Rees-Mogg. Less

The Shocking Truth about Royal Finances and Meghan's New Christmas Show | The Daily T

Dec 3, 2025 | Is the Royal family value for money, or are they ripping us off?

The Parliamentary public affairs committee announced that it will hold an inquiry into the properties and land owned by the monarchy, following the responses it received to questions about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s peppercorn rent at Royal Lodge.

As if that wasn’t enough, David Dimbleby has them in his sights in a new three-part BBC documentary titled “What’s the Monarchy For?”

Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined in the studio by former Liberal Democrat MP Norman Baker, whose new book ‘Royal Mint, National Debt’ rails against the huge increase in support to the Royals from the public purse, despite their vast private wealth and income streams, and without the transparency to go with it.

Plus, why Meghan’s new Christmas show is a demonstration of ‘working motherhood’ that most working mothers won’t recognise

King Charles Welcomes German President on First State Visit in 27 Years

BBC: King Charles, Queen Camilla and the Prince and Princess of Wales have welcomed the German president to the UK for a state visit.

President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and his wife Elke Budenbender landed at Heathrow airport on Wednesday morning and will receive an elaborate ceremonial reception in Windsor, beginning with a carriage ride to the castle.

It is the first German state visit in 27 years.

Such state visits are about projecting soft power and building relationships, and the three-day visit will see a mix of pageantry, politics and culture.

Events for the president will include a state banquet, speaking in Parliament, meeting the PM in Downing Street and visiting German footballers who play in the Premier League.

German flags are flying along Windsor High Street and the visitors will be given a formal welcoming ceremony and will view a military parade on the manicured lawns inside Windsor Castle.

State visits are planned by the Foreign Office to cultivate diplomatic relations with important partners. » | Sean Coughlan, Royal correspondent, Windsor | Wednesday, December 3, 2025

Trump kündigt baldige Bodenangriffe in Venezuela an – und droht dem nächsten Land

BERLINER ZEITUNG: „Wir wissen, wo die Bösen leben“, sagt US-Präsident Trump mit Blick auf mutmaßliche Drogenschmuggler. Schon „sehr bald“ wolle er Angriffe auf dem venezolanischen Festland starten – doch nicht nur dort.

US-Präsident Donald Trump hat am Dienstag baldige Angriffe auf mutmaßliche Drogenschmuggler angekündigt, die in Lateinamerika zu Land unterwegs sind. „Wir werden diese Schläge auch an Land durchführen“, sagte Trump während einer Kabinettssitzung auf die Frage nach den bisherigen Angriffen zur See. „Wissen Sie, an Land ist es viel einfacher … und wir kennen die Routen, die sie nehmen. Wir wissen alles über sie. Wir wissen, wo sie leben. Wir wissen, wo die Bösen leben. Und damit werden wir sehr bald beginnen.“

Wie der US-Nachrichtensender CBS News berichtet, drohte Trump zugleich Kolumbien, dass es künftig ebenfalls mit Angriffen rechnen müsse, wenn der Drogenschmuggel aus dem Land in die Vereinigten Staaten nicht begrenzt würde. Jedes Land, in dem illegale Drogen produziert oder gehandelt werden, „könne angegriffen werden“, so Trump. » | Sophie Barkey | Mittwoch, 3. Dezember 2025

Guerre en Ukraine: «aucun compromis» sur les territoires occupés après une rencontre entre Poutine et Witkoff à Moscou

LE FIGARO : Les discussions menées au Kremlin n’ont pas permis d’avancer sur l’enjeu territorial au cœur du conflit. Les deux parties saluent un échange constructif, mais les divergences sont toujours présentes alors que les forces russes poursuivent leur progression sur le front.

«Aucun compromis» n'a été trouvé mardi sur l'épineuse question des territoires occupés par la Russie en Ukraine après une rencontre à Moscou entre le président Vladimir Poutine et l'émissaire américain Steve Witkoff, qui lui présentait le plan de Washington pour mettre fin à près de quatre ans de guerre en Ukraine.

Steve Witkoff, accompagné du gendre du président américain, Jared Kushner, s'est entretenu pendant près de cinq heures au Kremlin avec le dirigeant russe à propos de ce plan présenté par Washington il y a deux semaines et depuis retravaillé lors de consultations avec les Ukrainiens. «Nous avons pu nous mettre d'accord sur certains points (...), d'autres ont suscité des critiques, mais l'essentiel est qu'une discussion constructive ait eu lieu et que les parties aient déclaré leur volonté de poursuivre leurs efforts», a indiqué le conseiller diplomatique du Kremlin, Iouri Ouchakov. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | mercredi 3 décembre 2025

President Calls Somalis ‘Garbage’ He Doesn’t Want in the U.S.

THE NEW YORK TIMES: President Trump used a public cabinet meeting to call Somali immigrants “garbage,” saying that they did not belong in the United States. Even for a president who has frequently made derogatory comments about immigrants, the rant against Somalis was an alarming use of vulgarity from the White House against an entire community. The tirade came as Immigration and Customs Enforcement was planning an operation targeting Somali migrants in Minnesota. » | NYT | Tuesday, December 2, 2025
