Royal family hides word 'negro' on Palace painting for Barack Obama visit

The word 'negro' had to be removed from a painting inside Kensington Palace at the last minute before the Obamas arrived for their informal dinner with the royals. The U.S. President and First Lady were just moments away from being entertained by Prince William, Duchess Kate and Prince Harry on Friday night, when an eagle-eyed assistant spotted a plaque, which named the piece of art 'The Negro Page'. A frantic removal reportedly took place inside the drawing room to avoid causing offence to the American couple. A pot plant was also put in place to cover where the plaque would have been. A source told The Sun: 'Imagine the horror when someone spotted the N-word.' The dramatic painting on one of the walls - A page With Two Horses, by Albert Cuyp, from The Royal Collection - features a black servant boy in a landscape from 1660. It is also known as The Negro Page. Mail on Sunday art critic Philip Hensher says the work, from the Golden Age of Dutch painting, would particularly appeal to a History of Art graduate, such as Kate. A Kensington Palace spokesman declined to comment on the reports last night. On Friday, the world was given an unprecedented insight into the world of the royals as the drawing room was seen for the first time since being refurbished. The lavish room was recently redecorated for the couple using £4.5million worth of taxpayers' money although the couple footed the bill for fixtures and furnishing themselves. Its design was more reminiscent of a comfortable country home than a grand, palatial lounge - with floral cushions adorning comfortable looking cream sofas. On the grand black piano sitting behind William and Mr Obama, who looked at ease in each other's company, were intimate family photos and an elaborate bouquet. One of the pictures appeared to be a black and white shot of Kate looking ethereal in white on her wedding day. Another seemed to be a family photo in front of the pyramids. The framed photos gracing an ornate table near the windows were rather more iconic. One appeared to show a blonde haired, baby faced Prince William in his teenage years - one of the many shots that drew comparisons to his mother's looks. Beside it was what looks like an unforgettable image taken by controversial fashion photographer Mario Testino, showing the late Princess Diana playing with her two beloved sons in a flower garden in 1988. There was also a picture of akin to the Duke of Cambridge's in-laws, Carole and Michael Middleton, attending the 2011 Royal Wedding. Kate's mother Carole looked glamorous in a sky blue Catherine Walker outfit after, apparently refusing to wear her specially designed Lindka Cierach outfit at the last minute. Sitting on the side table beside the Prince and the President, deep in discussion about the anti-poaching and conservation issues they hold dear, was a black and white wildlife book by world renowned photographer Nick Brandt. Brandt's 'regal and mysterious' book - entitled On This Earth, A Shadow Falls - is said to capture the vanishing grandeur of the vanishing beauty of East Africa with wide screen panoramic shots of majestic animals and landscapes. In what could be gracious appreciation of the Obamas' friendship, the room also contained to items the president had presented to little Prince George in the past. The President and his family sent the newborn Prince George a stunning handmade rocking horse as well a blanket made from the finest alpaca wool to celebrate his birth in 2013. Sporting a saddle embossed with the presidential seal, the wooden rocking horse came with a polo mallet with a head made from the branch of an oak tree that once stood on the south lawn of the White House. The fluffy toy dog lying on the hexagonal footstool in the middle of the room was a replica of the Obama family dog, Bo, a Portuguese Water Dog, also gifted to Prince George from the President. Intriguingly, the Royals displayed their thrifty side with their choice of drawing room alcohol. On the couple's drinks tray in the corner of the elegantly decorated room was a 70cl bottle of Smirnoff vodka worth £12, a bottle of Gordon's gin costing £14 and various mixers. Kate had the help of an interior designer for the drawing room room - one of 22 inside the couple's private apartment which once belonged to Princess Margaret. Less

Hillsborough verdict – “victims unlawfully killed” Police failings were to blame Relatives call for senior officers to quit Criminal prosecutions could follow Families of the 96 football fans who died as a result of a crush in the 1989 Hillsborough stadium disaster, are calling for senior police officers from the South Yorkshire force to resign. It follows the conclusion reached by a two-year long inquest that the fans were unlawfully killed, and that the police were responsible. Previous inquiries has decided the deaths were accidental. Police had blamed the tragedy on the supporters themselves, had told lies and staged a cover-up to hide mistakes in managing the crowd surging into the stadium for a popular FA Cup semi-final match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. The previous “accidental deaths” verdicts were rejected by the victims families from the start and for the last 27 years they have battled to get to the truth. Stephen Knight, brother of one victim spoke after the judgement: “The 5 South Yorkshire police legal teams simply produced the denials of the past, blaming mythical, drunken, late, ticket-less fans for the deaths of our loved ones. For this central reason, we the 22 families call for the immediate resignation of David Crompton – the current South Yorkshire Chief Constable.” Anne Burkett whose stepson died in the crush said: “They (the police) sought to hide the truth not just from the bereaved, but from the public at large.” Supporters vindicated “The fans have been totally vindicated, and the families have been victorious in everything they put forwards.” https://t.co/LilH14jH8j— This Is Anfield (@thisisanfield) April 26, 2016 Hillsborough was Britain’s worst sporting disaster and it unfolded live on national television in 1989. It is still an open wound in Liverpool where the victims came from.

The inquest pointed to mistakes made by police and emergency services leading up to and in the aftermath of the tragedy. The “unlawful deaths” verdict opens the way for the DPP to consider whether criminal prosecutions should follow. Less

Syria: new airstrikes hit Aleppo as death toll from earlier hospital attack ‘rises to 50’

There was more chaos and panic on the streets of Aleppo on Friday as fresh airstrikes hit the northern Syrian city after only a brief respite. Several more deaths were reported on both sides. Another medical facility was reportedly hit, said a civil defence chief working in rebel-held areas. Bebars Mishal told Reuters there were a number of air attacks in the morning, many around mosques in rebel territory. Syrian state media said several people had been killed and wounded as a government-held quarters in Aleppo was shelled and set on fire. Three died and 25 were injured when rebel-fired mortars hit a mosque as people were leaving Friday prayers, the state news agency SANA reported. The death toll at a hospital hit by airstrikes in Aleppo overnight on Wednesday-Thursday has risen to at least 50 people, including six medics, according to the French Charity Medecins sans Frontieres. The attack on the al-Quds hospital, in a rebel-held part of the city, was widely condemned abroad. Estimates now say more than 220 civilians have been killed in Aleppo, which is divided between rebel-held and government areas, over the past week. The UN says recent attacks could amount to war crimes and has turned its fire onto the Security Council. “The persistent failure of the Security Council to refer Syria to the International Criminal Court is an example of the most shameful form of realpolitik. In the minds of many people the great powers have therefore in effect, become accomplices to the sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of lives and the displacement of millions,” said Rupert Colville, spokesman for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. Meanwhile Syrian state TV announced the army would implement a temporary truce starting on Saturday – for 24 hours in Damascus, for three days in the coastal province of Latakia. A Syrian military source said Aleppo was not included in the ceasefire, due to “terrorists who have not stopped hitting the city and its residents”. Also on Friday, pictures which have been independently judged to be authentic by the social media news agency Storyful, appeared to show a more positive development. Broadcast by a pro-government media channel, they purportedly depict Russian planes dropping aid packages over Deir Ezzor, where 200,000 people have been living under siege from the self-proclaimed Islamic State. Heavy clashes between the army and ISIL were also reported in several districts of the city. Less

‘Money Monster’ and ‘Eshtebak’ premiere at Cannes as political films take centre stage

Jodie Foster’s ‘Money Monster’ has premiered at Cannes. Starring George Clooney and Julia Roberts who makes her debut at the festival, it’s one of only a few Hollywood films to tackle the financial crisis. Clooney plays a TV financial guru who is held hostage live on air by a disgruntled viewer, played by Jack O’Connell. Forty years since Jodie Foster’s big screen breakthrough in ‘Taxi Driver’ in 1976, ‘Money Monster’ is only her fourth feature film as a director. It is being presented out of competition at Cannes. “I think people do still want to make moves that make them think, that make them feel, that don’t manipulate them,” she said. Dominic West plays a banker in Foster’s film, said he was attracted by the fact it holds the financiers to account “in a very graphic, dramatic way”. “I hadn’t seen much response to the financial crisis by Hollywood,” he told a news conference just before the premiere.

The film has been praised for not taking sides, being described by the Hollywood Reporter as “one of the most telling depictions of modern Egypt yet filmed”.
