'What's the use of Charles and Camilla': French rage at King and Queen's royal visit


King Charles and Queen Camilla have come under fire for their recent state visit to France.

The royal pair were branded a “tourist attraction” by French communist party Lutte Ouvrière’s spokesperson, Nathalie Arthaud.

She told BFMTV: “What’s the use of Charles III and Camilla? Apart from fueling tabloids and serving as a tourist attraction?”

The former candidate in the presidential election also mocked the glittering state banquet held at Versailles on Wednesday night.

She tweeted: “They will discuss the end of the world while watching fighter planes burn a few tons of fuel.

“And this evening at the Versailles banquet, feasted by star chefs and served by butlers, they will talk about the hard trials that humanity is going through.”

The King and Queen arrived in Paris on Wednesday for the start of their three-day state visit.

They’ve been making stops all around Paris and tomorrow they will head to Bordeaux for their final day.

This is a rescheduled trip from March, with the couple having to cancel their original planned visit amid violent pension reform protests across the country.
