The London Crier: Zelenskyy acquires Highgrove House, Former Residence of King Charles, for £20M
Report News Agency ^ | April 3, 2024 | Staff

Posted on 04/03/2024 8:57:28 PM PDT by Kazan

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the new owner of Highgrove House, previously owned by King Charles, Report informs, citing The London Crier.

Highgrove House, near Tetbury in Gloucestershire, served as the country residence of King Charles III even after he assumed his new role as Britain’s reigning monarch.

It was purchased in 1980 by the then-Prince Charles from Maurice Macmillan, son of the former British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. During his first marriage to Diana, Princess of Wales, the family would spend weekends in Gloucestershire with Princes William and Harry before returning to Kensington Palace.

Although there is no official statement from Buckingham Palace on the Highgrove house sale yet, there are many details that indicate the sale was completed in late February or early March of 2024.

Grant Harrold, the King’s former butler, who worked for Charles III at Highgrove from 2004 to 2011, believes the final details of the deal were negotiated during Mrs. Zelenska’s visit to the UK on February 29.

It is unclear how much Highgrove House was sold for to Volodymyr Zelensky. Its price in 1980 (£800,000) is the equivalent of about £4.7 million to £8 million today. But the actual price is supposed to be much higher—around £20 million.

That's one of THE stupidest posts I ever EVER read on FR and I've been reading FR for over 25 years!
Soooooooooooooooo...you've NEVER heard about THE SINKING OF THE LUSITANIA?
How about the THE BOMBING OF PEARL HARBOR!

Maybe you should do your research instead of bragging how long you have been around being totally gullible.



Zimmermann Telegram
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zimmermann_Telegram
The Zimmermann Telegram (or Zimmermann Note or Zimmermann Cable) was a secret diplomatic communication issued from the German Foreign Office in January 1917 that proposed a military contract between the German Empire and Mexico if the United States entered World War I against Germany. With Germany's aid, Mexico would recover Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico. The telegram was intercepted by British intelligence.

Revelation of the contents enraged Americans, especially after German State Secretary for Foreign Affairs Arthur Zimmermann publicly admitted on March 3, 1917, that the telegram was genuine. It helped to generate support for the American declaration of war on Germany in April 1917.

The decryption has been described as the most significant intelligence triumph for Britain during World War I[2] and it marked one of the earliest occasions on which a piece of signal intelligence influenced world events.

The Lusitania and the secrets of war, revealed
Saul David
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/may/01/lusitania-secrets-of-war-revealed-sinking
One of the great mysteries of the first world war – whether or not the passenger ship Lusitania was carrying munitions and therefore a legitimate target when it was sunk by a German submarine in May 1915 – has been solved in the affirmative by newly released government papers. They contain Foreign Office concerns that a 1982 salvage operation might “literally blow up on us” and that “there is a large amount of ammunition in the wreck, some of which is highly dangerous”.


Lusitania's Secret Cargo
Volume 62 Number 1, January/February 2009

The nearly century-old debate about whether the passenger liner Lusitania was transporting British war munitions when torpedoed by a German U-boat is over. Physical evidence of just such a cargo has been recovered from the wreck, which rests 12 miles off the Irish coast in 300 feet of murky, turbulent water.

Lusitania was sunk off County Cork on May 7, 1915. The attack killed 1,198 people, including 128 Americans, and helped push the United States into World War I. Ever since the ship went down, there have been suspicions that Lusitania was carrying live munitions. Under the rules of war, that would have made the liner a legitimate target, as the Germans maintained at the time.

The British government has always been evasive about the presence of munitions on Lusitania. Two cargo manifests were submitted; the second, filed after the ship sailed, indicated there were light munitions on board. Some believe the ship was carrying much more, however, and that the British Navy attempted to destroy the wreck in the 1950s to conceal its military cargo.

Now a team led by County Waterford-based diver Eoin McGarry, on behalf of Lusitania's American owner, Gregg Bemis, has recovered live ammunition from the wreck. Bemis was granted a five-year license in 2007 by the Irish government to conduct limited excavations at the site. He originally bought the vessel in 1968 for $2,400 from the Liverpool & London War Risks Insurance Association.

This past September, Bemis’s team used a remotely operated vehicle to penetrate the wreck. They were able to clearly identify a vast amount of ammunition in an area of Lusitania not believed to have carried cargo. The Remington .303 caliber bullets the team discovered on the ship had been used by the British military during World War I. Ten of the bullets were brought to the surface.

You're welcome!

Cornwall is a Duchy, the land and building belong to the Duke of Cornwall, whomever that may be, and so, is CROWN PROPERTY.

It's not the same, but akin to claiming that King Charles III has sold BUCKINGHAM PALACE; which, of course, is an absurdity.

Everyone, including me, knew, as childre4n that the Lusitania was carrying arms. So, yet again, you're in the wrong, assuming that I know nothig at all about this. As a matter of fact, I knew ALL about it, when I was 6 years old.

OTOH...your post clearly claimed that "ENGLAND GOT US INTO WWI AND WWII. That's not accurate.

Are you now going to post about THE BOMBING OF PEARL HARBOR being a nefarious plot by outside influences, other than Japan? LOL

over 31,000 Ukraian people have died during his duty of traveling all over the world collecting money

More UKR soldiers than that have died just this year, easily.

It should only take another 100-200 thousand deaths to get us through this year's election cycle, and then UKR won't matter anymore.

Grow up. You comment like a little girl. Our relationship with the sad remnant of the Brisitish Empire has pulled ilus into two world wars only to England’s benefit. The spooks in the British government worked feverishly to pull America into both world wars and Americans are tired of it. Now they are trying for a third time. Enough is enough.

Zeepers follies. Corruption is the purpose for Biden and Zenlinski. Blood money.

Only democrats learn hate for political gain. The only thing they hate more than (flavor of the week) Russians are Trumper’s....

“Your tax dollars at work!”

You heard it from the palace butler...

If President Trump brings a peaceful resolution to Ukraine’s war, Zelensky—like President Trump—will still have targets on their backs.

Sadly it is gobbled up by the juveniles here and the trolls amplify.

The story will be debunked, but will remain in circulation regardless

My favorite has been the switch from Putin is going in soft because he loves jobs”little Russians” to he can’t even take Ukraine so what is Poland and NATO worried about
