It was announced yesterday that Prince Charles will not be going to the Opening Ceromony of the Beijing Olympics. In fact, he won't be going at all.
He's known the Dalai Lama for years. Activists in the free Tibet movement have urged His Royal Highness not to attend.
This time, someone listened.
HRH has been an activist himself for many years, championing causes such as design, the environment and natural foods. If you have a chance to try some of the Duchy Originals products that come from his farm, (especially the biscuits!), they are very good.
Prince Charles has done the right thing, and he has set a stellar example for his contemporaries, of whom, human rights is only lip service.
Well done Sir!
