Card-i-cature a week... Week 43 - King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia (The Two of Spades) 


Week 43, and for the Two of Spades it's King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, who this week was preparing to visit the UK for the first visit of a Saudi monarch in 20 years. The visit was contraversial for a number of reasons, from Saudi Arabia's disregard for human rights and use of capital punishment, the recent (conveniently dropped) enquiry into British Aerospace's and the
Government's dealing with the country, and the King's comments on the 7/7 London bombers.

Hi Joanne,

Great! Glad you like the cards!

Unfortunately, I've been a bit lax in updating the card-i-catures recently, as I've had a busy run. This week, however, I'll be aiming to bring the series right up-to-date... keep watching!
