After hype and controversy, Prince Harry's memoir goes on sale
14 Sept 17:30Key points summarised by AI
Prince Harry's highly anticipated autobiography, "Spare," officially went on sale after months of hype and a blanket publicity blitz.
The memoir contains scorching revelations, including an alleged physical attack by Prince William, criticism of Queen Consort Camilla, and personal admissions about drug use and military service.
The royal family has maintained silence, but unnamed palace insiders have condemned Harry's attacks on Camilla and accused him of betraying his father and brother.
Despite the media frenzy, initial book sales saw modest queues, and recent polls indicate a significant decline in Prince Harry's popularity in the UK.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Yesterday 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
