[Help] His Majesty King Charles

What do you mean?

The NYT is a left-leaning paper. As I suggested above, presumably a case of mistaken identity.

The Times (of London) is firmly on the right of the spectrum but I've not heard it labelled "extreme right" before. A "Tory rag", sure. "Murdoch propaganda", absolutely. Perhaps, I've missed its lurch into far right politics or maybe we have a different conception of extreme right.

If you'd said "extremely right wing", I'd let it slide but "extreme right" seems hyperbolic (and just wrong in the case of the NYT).

the guardian is not espousing communism, or indeed the socialist workers party, @Live by the sea was simply employing some lazy labels

He said the Guardian is "very lefty", which I disagree with, but that's besides the point.

Are you still trying to argue that the New York Times is "extreme right"? Bit odd, mate.

I'm well aware of the foibles of LBTS. But if you're going to call him out, do it accurately.

apols, but you gotta admit, if a chap were to think that the guardian is very left, they either don't understand politcs, or the english language, possibly both. the americans are not known for their intellect

they are both, extreme right wing

Nonsense - The times both here & over the pond are not extreme right wing . Out of all the serious newspapers they are amongst the most sensible and balanced.

King Charles to be treated in hospital for enlarged prostate

Palace says monarch’s condition is benign and he will attend hospital next week

www.theguardian.com

Slightly concerning news for King Charles, hopefully soon back to business as usual, I am sure everyone on NSC will join in wishing His Majesty The King a speedy recovery.

Also full credit for the transparency the King is showing to encourage men of similar age to get themselves checked out.

A man of a certain age, just like me. I can sympathise!

The Times today is a right wing rag increasingly barely removed from a red top. Sorry. My opinion.
Still a good crossword though

Interesting timing given what seems to be a more serious operation for poor Kate. Suspect Charles has taken one for the team to take some of the interest away from her? These things are always considered to the nth degree.

Catherine, Princess of Wales, in hospital after abdominal surgery

Catherine will stay in hospital for up to 14 days, and both she and William have cancelled royal duties.

Nice to know that Blue bloods can also have a dodgy walnut, sure he'll be fine.

I don't think they are having serious surgery JUST to stop us talking about Paedo (allgedly) Andy!

Not overly worried, we seem to have plenty more royals stockpiled.

Given William's alleged other interests. I do wonder how he will keep himself occupied over the next couple of weeks. Must be awful being pegged back in the public affection.

Maybe his in-laws will pop round and help out given they don't appear to be doing anything else.
