ISIS supporters threaten Prince George – Royal Central

[Curryong]

To threaten the lives of small children (or older ones for that matter) while they are attending school is just despicable. Isis is apparently on its last legs, no territory of any significance left under its control anymore, but I suppose that won't stop its adherants issuing threats or homegrown followers trying something. Hopefully security at the school will be increased for the foreseeable future.

[Trudie]

Those animals are below despicable to threaten a small child shows you just how cowardly they are.

[FanDianaFancy]

Very scary. Just thought of that.  Despite the richness of  lifestyle , when  you think about this sort of thing and them all always having RPO and all,  real. Real scary too.

Prince George terror plot accused 'wanted to poison ice creams'

A suspected Islamic State supporter encouraged lone wolf attackers to target Prince George at his school and to poison ice creams, a court has heard.

Husnain Rashid posted a photo online of the four-year-old prince with the address of his Battersea school, a silhouette of a jihadist fighter and the message "even the Royal Family will not be left alone", a jury at Woolwich Crown Court heard.

Suspect Husnain Rashid was arrested in April and had an alleged hit list of "enemies of Islam."

Prosecutor Annabel Darlow said: "His proposals were indiscriminate and made no distinction between adult and child, between members of fighting forces and civilians.

"His suggestions included injecting poison into supermarket ice creams and targeting Prince George at his first school."

Other targets included the Halloween Parade in New York and railway stations in Australia.

His "hit list" for jihadists to "terrorise the enemies of Allah" also included author Salman Rushdie and MI6.

Why Princess Anne Doesn?t Shake Hands During Walkabouts | PEOPLE.com

Princess Anne on why she doesn't shake hands during walkabouts | Daily Mail Online

Why Princess Anne doesn't shake hands with members of the public

[Curryong]

I thought that was why Anne wouldn't shake the hands of members of the public on walk-abouts. She's a stickler for the old ways. I'm ancient enough to remember when the Queen didn't. She would just walk along and people would clap and cheer. I doubt that the QM ever took part in a handshaking sort of event with the general public either. She would occasionally shake the hands of people she was presented to, but that would be it. I don't think Anne goes in for the post-Diana custom of hugging members of the public, a habit her older brother sometimes indulges in, either.

[amabel]

Typical of Anne....

[TLLK]

She's unlikely to change her habits after decades on.

She's unlikely to change her habits after decades on.

No, she never changes.  She was rude and tiresome when she was a girl and she still is...

[LouisFerdinand]

I like Princess Anne's comment about the person putting the instrument down if they wish to speak to the Royal.

[Princess Cassandra]

No, she never changes.  She was rude and tiresome when she was a girl and she still is...

Yet, I don't think she intends to be rude - I think she is just forthright and a bit impatient. If you ever get a chance to watch Princess Alexandra's wedding, take a look at Anne (bridesmaid) as they came back to the sanctuary after signing the register.

The Busy Princess: Princess Anne clocks up an impressive 20,000 engagement ? Royal Central

The Princess Royal has conducted more than 20,000 public engagements so far in her career, with there being no signs of her slowing down just yet.

On Saturday, Princess Anne marked 50 years since she conducted her very first engagement on March 1st 1969 ? St David?s Day.

According to the MailOnline, Princess Anne?s first engagement was to hand out leeks to the Welsh Guards at Pirbright Camp in Surrey.

This was the start of a job-for-life for The Queen?s daughter, who is now the busiest royal, often completing more than 500 engagements per year.

Her Royal Highness is President, Patron and member of almost 350 charities ? many of these receiving regular royal support from the 68-year-old.

[Curryong]

Well done to Anne, one of the unsung stalwarts of the BRF. And at around 500 engagements each year one of the busiest. I think also that she has grown closer to her mother since HM has become very old. She is often there in the background, accompanying her to events and present at family gatherings at Balmoral, Windsor etc. I think she enjoys her life. The public duties have given structure and purpose which, after her equestrian life finished, was important.
