Paying emotional tribute to his grandma, Prince Harry said he was “forever grateful” for her support for him, his “dearest wife” Meghan and their beloved great-grandchildren Archie and Lilibet – who the Queen had barely met.

Harry added: “We smile knowing that you and grandpa are now reunited and both are at peace together.”

What a brass neck he has for talking about peace when he and Meghan so selfishly ruined Prince Philip and the Queen’s final weeks before Philip died with their inflammatory Oprah Winfrey interview.

In my opinion, her accusations of racism in the royal family and claims of callous behavior towards Meghan have done even more harm than Harry’s mother has done to Diana at her most vengeful.

Worse, with the Archewell brand on the wane in the US and Netflix demanding its pound of flesh, Harry still plans to milk the monarchy by releasing his memoir.

They were due out later this year and we should be grateful that he pushed the release back to 2023 as a mark of respect for the Queen. But doesn’t he realize how damaging it would be for his father, King Charles, if the book were published just months into his reign?

More from Amanda Platell for The Chron…

The delay could give Harry time to add additional chapters about the pain of losing his beloved granny, to add some extra royal magic. This isn’t about respect, it’s about shamelessly monetizing the family he’s turned his back on.

And now that William and Kate have extended the olive branch by inviting the Sussexes to tour Windsor Castle, what other tidbits will he add about the terrible royals? Why should any of the senior royals trust him and his wife now – they have to fear that anything they say could be used against them.

The funeral was meant to be a time of reconciliation; it could still be. But the Sussexes will never be trusted again if there is a single unkind word about the monarchy in Harry’s book.

You may have gotten $20 million for your memoir, but the money is dirty, Harry. No publisher would pay you to reflect on the “life lessons” that shaped you. You want sensation – your value lies in duping the royals with your “truth”.

The family has been denied access to the book and the palace prepares for another Oprah-style nuclear attack. So, Harry, a message from the millions of Britons who once loved you: If you ever want to hold your head up high in Britain again, don’t just put off your memoir. Am the book forever.

Didn’t King Charles look great in his military uniform with his daring new longer hair? A style statement – or just an attempt to cover up its famously large cleats? Anyway, we love it Charles.

When Mum finally met the Queen

My mother met the Queen during her 2011 tour in Perth and had a personal greeting with Her Majesty. This was 57 years after a tour where a meeting between Mum and the Queen had to be canceled due to a polio outbreak.

An aide had told us that the Queen’s favorite flowers were native, fragrant English roses. So the night before, Mom and I set out with a bucket and pruning shears to raid the neighbors’ gardens. We practiced delivering flowers in the back garden for hours, but when the moment came, mom with early onset Alzheimer’s thought for a moment that she was the queen and refused to deliver.

Her Majesty lowered her smiling face into the roses, took them firmly from Mama’s hands and declared them beautiful and said how nice it was to finally meet Norma.

Those waiting 12 to 14 hours to pay their respects to the Queen endure a five-mile long line of all races, all creeds, all nationalities – a snapshot of Britain’s great diversity and an eye-opener to the claims of Meghan and Harry that we’re a bunch of racists.

In her Panorama interview, Princess Diana was asked if she hoped William would succeed the Queen rather than the Prince of Wales. She replied, “I wish my husband to find peace, and other things follow from that, yes.”

Well, Charles has found peace with Camilla — so this “devastating” interview didn’t have a sting in the end.

Oprah Winfrey, whose Meghan and Harry program dropped a bombshell on the royal family in 2021, says the Queen’s death presents an opportunity for a reconciliation with Kate and William. Oprah is certainly only interested in “making up” with Meghan and Harry for their next gruesome TV interview.

Boomerang Kate will do a Di Down Under

With plans for Wills and Kate to visit Australia next year, wily Oz Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has ruled out a referendum on abolishing the monarchy during his first term. He may have spoken to Bob Hawke, who was prime minister when Republican sentiment was brewing Down Under — up until Charles and Diana’s sensational tour in 1983. Hawke said it set the Republican case back decades. The Kate and Wills effect does exactly the same thing.

The crowd of well-wishers clearly loved the Countess of Wessex as much as they did. Was it just the emotion that made her come back twice to hug autistic Josh Macpake, who was carrying a teddy bear dressed like a guardsman?

Or, as his mother Sue believes, did Sophie remember meeting Josh at Blackpool Tower three years ago?

Frisk doesn’t make smells

No major state occasion is complete without some work value in high visibility jackets.

This week, they stopped short of full-body searches of those who queued to see the coffin, confiscating everything from a small bottle of Chanel No. 5 to a box of Werther’s Originals. I can’t recall a single recorded injury from a tiny squirt of perfume or a projectile of toffee.

Actor Matt Smith, who played the unconvincing Prince Philip in The Crown, claimed on American TV that the Queen is a fan and “saw it on a projector earlier Sunday night.”

A projector! what a tosh She had been watching Strictly Come Dancing’s Sunday night results show.

Nic’s Tears of a Crown

Watching thousands line the streets as the Queen’s coffin passed Scotland, and many thousands more lining up to pay her tribute, this crowded little haggis Nicola Sturgeon was petrified – no doubt witnessing her dream of independence dissolved in tears each loyal royalist Scots.

Fulfill Dysfunctional Duty

Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice’s husbands, Jack Brooksbank and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, wore Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee Medals – no doubt for their services in service above all after marrying into this dysfunctional family led by the disgraced Andrew and his clingy ex. Mrs. Fergie.

Emotions were so great that even the Republican Guardian reported: ‘There are two types of people in the UK at the moment: 1. The people in the queue. 2. The people watching the queue (on TV) with fascination.’ And let’s not forget the more than five million who logged on to the Flightradar24 website to follow the RAF jet carrying the Queen’s coffin from Edinburgh to London.

Surprise Fact of the Week: The well-seasoned, lead-lined oak coffins of the Queen and Prince Philip were made 30 years ago by specialist firm Henry Smith, who also made coffins for Jimi Hendrix, Diana Dors and, perhaps most aptly, Freddie Mercury. . . Queen.

According to police, she was arrested along with other women to receive “instructions” about dress codes. “She suddenly suffered from a heart problem […] she was taken to the hospital immediately.”

Tehran police confirmed her death and said “there was no physical contact” between officers and the young woman. State television broadcast clips of a video showing a room visible at the police station where many women can be seen. One of them, introduced as Mahsa Amini, gets up to argue with an “instructor” about her clothes, then collapses.

“Unforgivable”

“The circumstances leading to the suspected death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in custody, including allegations of torture and other ill-treatment, deserve a criminal investigation,” along with the NGO Amnesty International. “The so-called morality police in Tehran arbitrarily arrested her three days before her death, using the country’s abusive, discriminatory and degrading headscarf laws.”

The United States has classified this death as “unforgivable.” “We will continue to hold Iranian leaders accountable for such human rights abuses,” wrote Jake Sullivan, US President Joe Biden’s national security adviser, on Twitter.

Iranian lawyer Said Dehghan tweeted that the young woman’s death was a “murder” and said she was hit in the head, resulting in a fractured skull. Hadi Ghaemi, director of the New York-based Center for Human Rights in Iran, described a “tragedy that could have been avoided”. “The government of Iran is responsible. She was arrested under the state’s discriminatory headscarf law and died in a state detention center.

Before announcing the death, the Iranian presidency had indicated that President Ebrahim Raisi had tasked the interior minister with investigating the affair.

Controversial Morality Police

The incident prompts controversy over the behavior of the moral police, who patrol the streets to check on the application of the headscarf law and other Islamic rules in public places.

Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the law has required all women, regardless of nationality or religion, to wear a veil that covers the head and neck while concealing the hair. In the last two decades, however, more and more women in Tehran and other major cities are letting strands of hair, or even more, stick out of their veils.

Home »World news» The spectacular viaduct that leads across the ocean: This is what the first section of the Nouvelle Route du Littoral looks like

The first section of the new viaduct, which will cross the Indian Ocean in La Réunion, an island which is an overseas department and French region east of Madagascar, has just been inaugurated.

This is what the Nouvelle Route du Littoral looks like

It is a colossal work, with only the first phase built so far, and will not be completed until 2028-2030. An incredible view that reinforces engineering audacity characterizes the new viaduct la New Route du Littoral. This is an innovative project created to reduce traffic on the historic Route du Littoral connecting Saint-Denis to La Possession. Contrary to what we might think, we are in a densely populated area and up to 60,000 vehicles pass by on the coast road prone to landslides every day. But in the long run, the realization of the New Route du Littoral It also has another purpose: to completely replace the traditional route, increasingly vulnerable, wedged between a fragile cliff and the erosion of the advancing sea.

The inauguration of viaduct on the Indian Ocean it was partial. Faced with setbacks and huge delays in implementation, as well as rising costs compared to the originally set costs, the local administration was forced to respond to pressure from the local population. The project, started in 2015, should be completed between 2020 and 2021. Instead, the opening of this section today covers only 8 km of the total 12.5 km. The way in between Saint Denis and La Grande Chaloupe it will also affect only one direction, the one running north-west between the two locations. Cars heading southeast will continue to use the old coast road for the time being.
