It's a bummer that his reign may not last long enough for the British to decide that maybe a king is a bad idea.

Oh no. A rich person with access to the best medical care in the world is sick. What ever will we do.

Never mind the cancer. That old building speaks?!

[–] Aggravationstation 11 points 11 months ago

If that building could talk it would say some incredibly disturbing things.

Our royalty are really just diplomats with better PR and a lot less privacy. Poor guy just lost his mum, now he's got cancer - I hope he recovers.

Could this new development mean that it is possible that his reign may not be a bit shorter than his mother's?

He was close friends with two high profile pedophiles. That's enough for me.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The type of cancer has not been revealed, but according to a palace statement the King began "regular treatments" on Monday.

Buckingham Palace says the King "remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible".

He will postpone his public engagements and it is expected other senior royals will help to stand in for him during his treatment.

The King, 75, returned to London from Sandringham in Norfolk on Monday morning and the palace says he has commenced treatment as an outpatient.

Although he will pause his public events, the King will continue with his constitutional role as head of state, including paperwork and private meetings.

UK figures suggest, on average each year, more than a third (36%) of new cancer cases were in people aged 75 and over.


The original article contains 280 words, the summary contains 139 words. Saved 50%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
