Cod Save The King! Princess Diana's former personal chef opens fish and chip van in US ahead of the Coronation
Apr 22 2023
-
Princess Diana’s former personal chef has swapped God Save The Queen for Cod Save The King after opening a fish and chip van in the United States.
For 15 years Darren McGrady worked in the kitchen of Buckingham Palace during Queen Elizabeth II’s reign, cooking for five US presidents, before becoming Diana’s personal chef following her split from Charles.
And while Darren says the late Princess would have thought he was mad to make such an extreme career move, he reckons she’d have enjoyed pulling on a tabard and serving hungry customers behind the counter.
‘Diana would have thought I was crazy launching a fish and chip van, but would have loved the idea,’ Darren told MailOnline.
‘As we know, she loved shocking people in a nice way, and I think she’d have enjoyed popping up at the window to serve people their fish and chips!’
While Darren adored his time cooking for the Royal Family, following Di’s death in 1997 he decided he’d haddock enough of the UK and so off he skated to America where he’d enjoyed visiting with The Queen, going from ‘The Palace to Dallas’ as a private chef in the Texan city.
Darren also became YouTube food influencer ‘The Royal Chef’ where his ‘Winston the Corgi’ stuffed toy mascot was created, and which has seen him appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show and CNN’s Larry King Live, among others.
But, unimpressed by the quality of food being served up as his local British pubs, Darren decided to start his own venture.
And so Winston’s British Fish ‘N’ Chips van launched in the car park of a church of Vancouver, Washington, serving what’s arguably the UK’s favourite dish to hungry Americans and British ex-pats.
Jokes Darren, ‘I have cooked for Kings, Queens, and Presidents – but you know you have made it when you have a food truck!
‘If you think creating a state banquet at Buckingham Palace is pressure, try being on a food truck with 50 orders lined up and loads of hungry people waiting for their food!
‘But you know you’re doing something good when ex pats praise the curry sauce. We even have one customer who comes seven times a week to eat fish, chips, and peas, which is delicious but admittedly not very healthy!’
Explaining why he decided to launch the chip shop van, and whether his regal former bosses would have enjoyed eating his wares, Darren goes on, ‘There are too many British pubs here that buy in frozen, ready-battered thin pieces of pollock which snaps when it’s fried.

Biden to hike payments for good-credit homebuyers to subsidize high-risk mortgages
Apr 22, 2023
Homebuyers with good credit scores will soon encounter a costly surprise: a new federal rule forcing them to pay higher mortgage rates and fees to subsidize people with riskier credit ratings who are also in the market to buy houses.
The fee changes will go into effect May 1 as part of the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s push for affordable housing, and they will affect mortgages originating at private banks across the country. The federally backed home mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will enact the loan-level price adjustments, or LLPAs.
Mortgage industry specialists say homebuyers with credit scores of 680 or higher will pay, for example, about $40 per month more on a home loan of $400,000. Homebuyers who make down payments of 15% to 20% will get socked with the largest fees.
The new fees will apply only to Americans buying houses or refinancing after May 1.
Lenders and real estate agents say the changes will frustrate homebuyers with high credit scores and homeowners seeking to refinance because the rule punishes them for their relatively strong financial positions.
“The changes do not make sense. Penalizing borrowers with larger down payments and credit scores will not go over well,” Ian Wright, a senior loan officer at Bay Equity Home Loans in the San Francisco Bay Area, told The Washington Times in an email message. “It overcomplicates things for consumers during a process that can already feel overwhelming with the amount of paperwork, jargon, etc. Confusing the borrower is never a good thing.”
He said the rule will “cause customer-service issues for lenders and individual loan officers when a consumer won’t understand why their interest rate and fees suddenly changed.”
“I am all for the first-time buyer having a chance to get into the market, but it’s clear these decisions aren’t being made by folks that understand the entire mortgage process,” Mr. Wright said.
The new fees “will create extreme confusion as we enter the traditional spring home purchase season,” said David Stevens, a former head of the Mortgage Bankers Association who served as commissioner of the Federal Housing Administration during the Obama administration.
“This confusing approach won’t work and more importantly couldn’t come at a worse time for an industry struggling to get back on its feet after these past 12 months,” Mr. Stevens wrote in a recent social media post. “To do this at the onset of the spring market is almost offensive to the market, consumers, and lenders.”

The DNC should rename themselves the “Democratic-Socialist National Committee.

Just When Dem Debates Would Have Been Interesting, DNC Says There Will Be No Debates
Well, this is disappointing news. The Washington Post reported Thursday that “the national Democratic Party has said it will support Biden’s reelection, and it has no plans to sponsor primary debates.” It’s understandable: the Dems have a president, of sorts, and so they’re counting on the power of incumbency to help their superannuated kleptocrat get over the top again. However, it’s also immensely disappointing, because after years and years of Democratic presidential debates being dreary displays of candidates trying to out-socialist one another, 2024 Democratic primary debates would have actually had something to offer.
Biden has two challengers, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson. When Kennedy announced his candidacy on Wednesday, USA Today reported that RFK immediately had the “support of 14% of voters who backed President Joe Biden in 2020,” according to a USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll. Williamson had 5%, and another 13% were undecided. USA Today noted that “that is surprising strength for a candidate who has a famous political name but is now known mostly as the champion of a debunked conspiracy theory blaming childhood vaccines for autism.”
USA Today’s confident use of the word “debunked,” however, can’t mask a growing suspicion among an increasing number of Americans that the authorities aren’t being honest with us. The COVID vaccine debacle, with what was originally touted as a single shot that would protect you from a deadly disease becoming multiple shots and boosters that carried side effects that were often worse than COVID itself, only fueled that suspicion. So the establishment media’s confidence that voters will dismiss Robert F. Kennedy Jr. because they dislike this vaccine skepticism may be whistling in the dark.

Kennedy also said something extremely interesting in his announcement that he was running: “My mission over the next 18 months of this campaign and throughout my presidency, will be to end the corrupt merger of state and corporate power that is threatening now – threatening now – to impose a new kind of corporate feudalism in our country.” Well, yes, and no one else is talking with this kind of clarity and consistency about the kind of collusion that we saw in the Twitter Files between the massive corporations and the government. Not even Donald Trump.
It’s thus entirely within the realm of possibility that RFK’s initial 14% could increase considerably with some national exposure. Some have even touted him as the new post-Trump populist, but he is unlikely to appeal to many non-Leftists, as he still embraces the climate change hoax and much more of the Left’s agenda. Still, he poses an articulate, informed alternative to stumbling, bumbling, fumbling Old Joe. Kennedy-Biden debates would be a wonder to behold, just to see RFK eviscerate the senescent corruptocrat and expose his mendacious posturing.
Add in Marianne Williamson, and the proceedings would get even more fun. The self-help guru and author of A Return to Love got some attention during her 2020 candidacy for her unforgettable quips, which include “You need not apologize for being brilliant, talented, gorgeous, rich, or smart” and “The reason we’re such fertile ground for the dark forces of such lies and social manipulation is that we’re dissociated from the genuine light of self-awareness.” There is a lot of truth to that, and a Biden-Kennedy-Williamson debate could be a marvelous show, featuring the garrulous old liar rattling on about how he got arrested for trying to visit Nelson Mandela in prison or about how his son Beau was killed in Iraq, Kennedy calling out state and corporate fascism, and Williamson waxing philosophical.
That’s precisely why the debates won’t happen. The Democratic National Committee knows that Williamson is nutty, and it thinks Kennedy is nutty, too, and it’s well aware that the less the public sees the dementia patient who pretends to be president, the better. They’re going with Biden for reelection, and they know that he can only hurt his own chances by standing toe-to-toe against a man who can actually articulate a coherent sentence and defend his positions, as well as against a woman who, however loopy she may be, looks like Madame Curie next to Old Joe.
And so despite the fact that RFK, who has never been a national figure, immediately jumped to 14%, there will be no real Democrat race. There will just be a coronation. No one should have ever expected that anything would be different.
After all, these people have made it abundantly clear that they don’t really like disagreement and want to silence dissent. Why would they allow it within their own party?
