"Good morning all & on this day in 1649, King Charles I was murdered and martyred in London after a heinous show trial instigated by a thoroughly illegitimate Parliamentary regime. "I shall go from a corruptible to an incorruptible Crown". The King's final word: "Remember"."

"Good morning/Buenos Días to all & on this #CincoDeMayo my thoughts are with the family of Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico, depicted here before his murder by Mexican revolutionaries in June 1867. A brave man who forgave his murderers. RIP."
