someone in the UK threw eggs at Charles and was arrested and has been banned from openly carrying eggs in public and has since been sent death threats but their statement on the matter was so fucking good
also let’s take a moment to appreciate the picture of this man being arrested
🥚❤
“So my bail conditions were, between my arrest and my trial, were that I wasn’t allowed to carry eggs in public.” host laughs “Yeah, I know, and so that is in itself like so absurd that it’s like right”
Host: “I gotta know, is there like a provision for if you’re going home from the store? Or are you just, are you just egg-less?”
“So the copper who was literally just like making this up at the station says like ‘Ok, so your bail condition is: you’re not allowed within 500 meters of the king; you’re not allowed to carry eggs in public’ and then he goes like 'ah actually, like, what 'appens if he wants to buy some eggs?’ Ok, so they changed it so it’s like, 'You’re allowed to carry eggs as long as you’re going home from the shops and you’ve got the receipt” host laughs “And I think, that was more viral than me actually doing it, you know what I mean like, people were like, that’s Britain for you, have you got a license for those eggs”
