So, Harry had a 45-minute reunion (and one cup of tea) with King Charles this week at Clarence House. It was the first time father and son had spoken in 19 months. But at least he achieved what he came to London to do – to show the world he’d met with the King, which had always been his mission. I’m sorry I don’t trust this selfish manchild as far as I could throw him.
Harry doesn’t care about a reconciliation. But he does know his income stream will dry up if he continues to have zero contact with the only thing that makes him relevant – the Royal Family. In five years, he’s sold every cough and spit of his royal life, but now he needs more if he’s to finance his multi-million pound lifestyle in Montecito.
It was beyond galling watching him swanning around London this week on his pseudo royal tour desperately trying to look like the popular, much-loved Harry of old.
He even called in the media he’s spent years screaming he hates to record his every jolly event AND the fact he’d donated £1.1million of his own money to Children in Need.
It smacked of desperation, especially as the royals regularly give money out of their own pockets but never say how much. But there’s Harry telling the world how fantastically generous he is. It was like he was screaming: “Love Me, Take Me Back.”
Maybe if he publicly apologised for all the hurt he’s caused his family we might think about it. But he won’t. And let’s see how much he spills to the US networks about his meeting with Charles once he’s back home.
He’s so far been incapable of discretion. But this time – his whole future depends upon it!

There needs to be a recount of the NTA awards. Never in a million years is Gary Lineker the Best Presenter. This was just a political vote by people who support Palestine.
The smug Linker said winning the award sent a message that it’s okay to share your views and speak up. Tosh. No-one ever said he shouldn’t share his views – just not while he was working for the supposedly neutral state broadcaster.
But the fact he’s won this award after being sacked by the BBC for unwittingly retweeting a vile antisemitic tweet that compared Jews to rats, for which he made a grovelling apology, says everything you need to know about these awards – and the people who voted for him.
Lineker’s win doesn’t reflect the view of the majority, it represents the views of the liberal elite, and had it been Ricky Gervais hosting the show, instead of the vacuous Joel Dommett, he’d have said so.

I’m thrilled Coronation Street’s Maureen Lipman tied the knot this week with fiancée David Turner. But once she’s back from honeymoon, could she please hotfoot it back to the cobbles on a more permanent basis to inject some much-needed humour into this now dreary soap where everyone’s either a killer, a psycho, gay, bisexual or dying of some incurable disease.

Keir Starmer paying tribute to the murdered US activist Charlie Kirk sounded like a sick joke. Because it’s Starmer and his oppo, David Lammy, who are responsible for whipping up right-wing hatred in this country to the point we’re not far off a similar tragedy.
Starmer also had the brass neck to hail free speech and said people like Charlie Kirk should be free to say what they believe, without fear. Which is pretty damn rich because, after just 14 months, his government now has a worldwide reputation for trying stamp out free speech by turning Britain into a totalitarian state.

We’re told that Keir Starmer last week tried to sack Energy Secretary and eco maniac Ed Miliband – but he refused to go. How does a Prime Minister “try” to sack one of his ministers?
It’s really not that hard. You just say: “You’re useless, you’re sacked, shut the door on your way-out, loser!” Job done!
Margot Robbie really didn’t need to pull this cheap dress stunt at the Leicester Square premiere of her new movie with Colin Farrell.
Robbie has a stunningly beautiful face. Ditto the body AND she’s a fabulous actress. So why bare her backside – and almost everything else – in a dress that made her look like a Las Vegas showgirl.
If you have to promote your movie in a state of semi nakedness – it really can’t be that good.

The two ropey contenders for the deputy leadership of the Labour Party are Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson and sacked culture minister, Lucy Powell. And both these no-marks qualify for this prestigious job for no other reason that they’re women from the North (like Angela Rayner was).
But they do have stuff in common. Both are useless at their jobs, and both are chippy, vindictive, nasty pieces of work. Powell is the one who, when asked on TV if she’d seen a recent documentary on grooming gangs, said: “Oh we want to blow that little trumpet do we. Let’s get that dog whistle out.”
THAT was her response to the abuse of thousands of vulnerable young girls. And Phillipson? She’s THE most destructive force in education for years who has helped close 54 top performing independent schools for no other reason than class snobbery. Duds the pair of them!
