Recorded by an indiscreet camera, Queen Elizabeth II has committed a rare odd mistake calling Chinese officials "very rude"  for their behavior during their last October visit of President Xi Jinping in the UK. This odd-which coincides with another diplomatic gaffe committed by Prime Minister David Cameron which occurred on Tuesday during a meeting between the sovereign and head of London police, Lucy D'Orsi, who described the difficulties encountered during the passage of Xi Jinping. When told that the Queen Lucy D'Orsi oversaw security this event, during the traditional garden party in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, she answers shot back: "Oh, no luck!".

Continuing her description of events, police reports how Chinese officials left a meeting with Barbara Woodward, Ambassador of United Kingdom to China, saying that their visit was over. "They were very rude with the ambassador," then said the Queen. An output somewhat unusual from a head of state about the other countries, particularly from the British monarch, held to a strict duty of reserve. "It was a bit stressful sometimes on both sides," admitted the British Foreign Affairs Philip Hammond, stressing in a statement to British media, that this type of state visit entailed "significant logistical challenges ".

A spokesman for the royal palace for his part refused to comment on "private conversations with the queen." He nevertheless insisted that the visit of Xi Jinping had been "a great success", all parties "worked closely together to ensure that everything goes well." The spokesman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Lu Kang, also stressed that "the state visit of President Xi Jinping, last year was a great success." However, when about Queen were reported by BBC World, the transmission was interrupted in China, reported the British public channel.

Duchess Catherine was out this Wednesday, May 4th. The Duchess of Cambridge had three appointments on its agenda. If the first had contact with children, where she found herself face to face with a rather impressive plastic dragon. The plastic and clay molten animal is amongst one of the attractions of the "Magic Garden", a new playground that she inaugurated at the gardens of Hampton Court Palace, southwest of London. The garden has been designed by the award-winning landscape architect of RHS Chelsea, Robert Myers and is built in King Henry VIII’s former tiltyard (a courtyard used for jousting practice and tournaments). It draws inspiration from the Tudor Court, allowing youngsters to learn about Hampton Court’s history while they play. Very interested in this big beast that was filled with young children play, the young 34 year old woman stooped to look more closely at her wide open mouth. And did not fail to entrust two girls of 8 years who were there, according to comments reported by the "Daily Mail", she thought her son George, aged 2 years and 9 months, would have had "a little scared" of this dragon. The little prince might be more appreciated those adorning, among flowers and golden lilies, the amazing cake made for the occasion.
