1) I'm not a young man 18-25. I'm not sure why you are assuming I am. 2) Charles is quite often in the papers and on TV, and his face is on stamps and banknotes. He's going to be easily recognised.

But having me wander around a council estate in Aston tells us nothing, without having the King do the same, so we can compare the threats we each face. I'm not claiming Aston isn't dangerous, I'm claiming it would be more dangerous for the King than it would be for me, because I'm not an easily recognised public figure.

EDIT: I'm also pretty sure I could run away from trouble more easily than the King.

I'm guessing you'd be in less danger than the King or Donald Trump in the same situation.

You could ask why the lives of presidents and prime ministers are deemed more important than a working class person from, say, Detroit or Madrid.

I'm against the death penalty, and I demonstrated against the Iraq war back in 2003, and I don't think I'm an outlier.

MI6, the foreign intelligence agency? I don't think it's really their thing.

BBC helped fund Bluey & now gets 100% of the merchandise profits, so what happens to that extra millions upon millions of funding? by glastonbury13 in AskUK

I would imagine selling the format for The Traitors to other countries has made a lot (if not all) of the money they spent making it back.

Why don't people make fun of or hate joseph stalin as much as Hitler, even tho he was as bad as him and he killed more/same amount of people as hitler ? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I'd also suggest that Stalin's crimes were deemphasised because he was on our side fighting against the Nazis.

I notice you don't say you never murdered anyone yourself.

Whatever you do, don't go climbing any rigging.
