“I send my warmest congratulations to the competitors from Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and across the Commonwealth, following their success at the Olympic Games in Tokyo in recent weeks.






“The skill, determination and hard work shown by the athletes and their support teams throughout the unique and challenging circumstances of the last year has been an inspiration to us all.”

It is good to see that the Queen understands the multinational status of the monarchy that transcends the UK. What about her heirs and successors ?

She does but she also communicates clearly that her allegiance is first and foremost with Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

How nice that they posted a picture - but I don't particularly like the picture itself.

And Danish gold medal winner also got a phone call from Crown Prince Frederik

"It happened to dressage rider Tobias Thorning Jørgensen when Crown Prince Frederik called after he had secured gold for Denmark at the Paralympics in Tokyo.
- What do you say to the Crown Prince, it's completely wild, asked the young South Jutlander, who greatly appreciated the fine gesture.
- It's completely insane that he bothers to follow in parasport, and so little me who gets a call. It is absolutely extraordinary, he says."
