They’re such idiots. Not that I care much about Prince Charles, but he IS heir to the throne, & you’d think they’d be a little more protective.
Then again, they’ve had other serious lapses in security involving the royal family, so, I guess it shouldn’t be surprising.
Fools.

An eyewitness said the couple became separated from their police escort as they drove up Regent Street towards the London Palladium, and found themselves in the midst of crowds who had just left the protest in Trafalgar Square. Protesters bombarded the car with bottles and bins.
