The invisible visitor
In a break with tradition, the official welcome for a visiting head of state by the Queen and Prince Philip will take place at Buckingham Palace this morning, rather than Horse Guards Parade, Windsor or Edinburgh.

The arrangement means Snippy the Emperor-Chimp will not be required to step outside the gates of the Palace or to take part in a motorcade along the Mall.

Fears that he may actually come in contact with regular people over ridicule and humiliation his security are believed to have played a part in the decision that he should meet families of the British victims inside the US embassy and not go outside to pay his respects at the memorial as originally planned.

Chickenshit.
