SARAH VINE: The rampage of the 世帯 Cavalry steeds is a 残虐な 思い出の品 that nature can never truly be tamed - but that doesn't mean we should 始める，決める them '解放する／自由な'
The melancholy 緊張するs of the Rolling 石／投石するs’ Wild Horses (from the 1971 album Sticky Fingers) have been running through my 長，率いる all week, ever since five 世帯 Cavalry steeds were spooked on their morning ride by building work 存在 carried out on a mansion in Belgravia and ran amok through London.
Three 兵士s and a cyclist were 負傷させるd after the animals threw their riders and galloped off through the 都市の ジャングル, 粉砕するing into a 列／漕ぐ／騒動 of parked e-scooters, a taxi and a bus. The その後の scenes, 株d 広範囲にわたって on social マスコミ, were like a cross between that Lloyds Bank advert and a Quentin Tarantino movie.
The humans were taken to hospital and, as far as I know, are 回復するing. But two of the poor creatures were 不正に 負傷させるd ? a grey called Vida and a 黒人／ボイコット horse, called Quaker.
Three 兵士s and a cyclist were 負傷させるd after two horses threw their riders and galloped off through the 都市の ジャングル, 粉砕するing into a 列／漕ぐ／騒動 of parked e-scooters, a taxi and a bus
In their panic they covered almost a six-mile stretch before 存在 caught at Limehouse, in East London, 血まみれのd and exhausted.
にもかかわらず the 損失 to both humans and animals, there was something incredibly stirring about the whole 出来事/事件; a 思い出の品 that nature, even in such a relentless 都市の 環境, can never truly be tamed.
Their 運命／宿命 has also 逮捕（する）d the imagination of the public. There’s not one person I’ve spoken to this week who hasn’t 表明するd 関心 for the horses, and the fallout from the 出来事/事件 continues to 演習 opinion online and on 空気／公表する.
Some have, 必然的に, used it as an excuse to 動かす up trouble. Peter Tatchell, a patron of Animal 援助（する） and 支持者 of Animal Defenders International, 宣言するd ‘these horses are held 捕虜 as animal slaves to serve the 王室の 世帯 Cavalry’, 追加するing ‘SET THEM FREE!’
But that’s just politics ? and ignorance. The idea that these animals are in any way mistreated or ‘enslaved’ is absurd: no creature on the 惑星 could be more loved or 尊敬（する）・点d than a 世帯 Cavalry horse.
Truth is, more than a century since these animals 中止するd to be a familiar sight on our streets, horses still 持つ／拘留する a unique place in our hearts. For me, it’s that combination of strength, beauty and 知能 ? tinged with danger. The horse is one of the few truly awesome creatures Man has domesticated, but there is always a sense that it could at any point return to the wild.
That is what, in 影響, happened this week. Horses are flight animals and no 量 of training or 条件ing can 無視／無効 that 根底となる instinct to run when under attack.
Years ago, I was walking 近づく South Kensington when the unfamiliar sound of hooves over the hubbub of traffic caught my ear. I turned to see a magnificent bay galloping に向かって the traffic lights at the junction with the Natural History Museum. I realised that since horses don’t get traffic lights, it cou ld 激突する into a column of cars. It was going far too 急速な／放蕩な to try to stop it, so I shouted and waved my 武器 to put it off course. I must have caught its 注目する，もくろむ, because it veered off 負かす／撃墜する a 味方する street. I then rang the police.
When I was young, I used to love riding. 結局, I gave up because I became too 激しい, and it didn’t seem fair to make some poor horse cart me around for my own entertainment.
But I have several friends for whom horses remain not just a passion, but also their emotional and mental 救済.
One 作品 with a charity called HorseBack UK. 設立するd by a former 海洋 and his wife in Aberdeenshire, it helps ex-service 職員／兵員 with life-changing 傷害s 傷をいやす／和解させる their mental and physical 負傷させるs through interaction with these noble, intelligent beasts.
In 共同 with the Prince’s 信用, it also helps disadvantaged youngsters in the community and 申し込む／申し出s support to NHS and care home staff. Its success 率 is astonishing.
I hope Vida, Quaker and their companions are on the mend. Long may they continue to grace our 資本／首都 with their awesome presence.
I have nothing but 賞賛する for the French police officer filmed 削除するing an overcrowded dinghy on the beach at Dunkirk. They may have saved the lives of those on board. Yet, 必然的に, they’ve been （刑事）被告 of 事実上の／代理 callously. Proof no good 行為 goes unpunished in this topsy-turvy world.
承認する, I give up. Having packed away my winter coats, I’m bringing them 支援する into service. This 天候 is even more unseasonably icy and 哀れな than Greta Thunberg. Assuming you can imagine such a thing.
In a bit of a jam, Meghan?
Samantha?Cohen 確認するd last week that she was one of ten 従業員s interviewed as part of Buckingham Palace’s 調査（する） into 主張s of いじめ（る）ing by Meghan in 2021
Poor Meghan: にもかかわらず having interviewed several people for the position of CEO of her new 投機・賭ける, American Riviera Orchard, a suitable 候補者 has failed to 現れる. This does seem rather unfortunate, 特に since selling strawberry jam, napkin （犯罪の）一味s and other fripperies is hardly ロケット／急騰する science. Or perhaps there just aren’t that many 用意が出来ている to take on the 仕事, 特に after her former 私的な 長官, Samantha Cohen 確認するd last week that she was one of ten 従業員s interviewed as part of Buckingham Palace’s 調査（する） into 主張s of いじめ（る）ing by Meghan in 2021. The 報告（する）／憶測 itself has yet to be made public. Still , one can’t help wondering…
Lauren’s a keeper
Lauren Fryer, pictured with her 兵器庫 footballer boyfriend Declan Rice, has been criticised mercilessly online for her 外見
What a horrible world it is where a young mother is criticised so mercilessly online for her 外見, she feels 強いるd to 削除する all her photographs and go into hiding.
Lauren Fryer, the long-standing girlfriend of 兵器庫 and England footballer Declan Rice and 十分な-time mother to their young son, has been 的d by trolls calling her fat and ugly and 示唆するing that Rice, now that he’s so successful, ‘could do better’.
How, pray? By swapping his childhood sweetheart and the mother of his child for some surgically 高めるd gold digger with plastic breasts and Botox for brains?
Some people are not just sick, they’re also incredibly 厚い.
I hate to say it, but London is now an anti-semitic city
It has finally happened. Yesterday, a 平和的な anti-semitism demonstration was called off because it 衝突／不一致d with a プロの／賛成の-パレスチナ one and the police said ? にもかかわらず the former デモ getting ‘非常に／多数の 脅しs’ ? there was not enough of a 危険 of 暴動ing to 令状 banning the Palestinian march.
Last week, a man was told off by a policeman for 存在 ‘率直に ユダヤ人の’ 近づく a プロの／賛成の-Palestinian march; 一方／合間, there have been almost 200 逮捕（する）s at these いわゆる ‘peace’ marches, おもに for hate speech, 同様に as 15 テロ行為-関係のある 逮捕（する）s on 疑惑 of supporting Hamas.
There is only one 結論: London is 公式に now an anti-semitic city. Take a 屈服する, Commissioner of the 主要都市の Police Sir 示す Rowley and 市長 Sadiq 旅宿泊所: you’re both an 絶対の 不名誉.
The 熱狂的興奮状態 over 示すs & Spencer’s £6 egg mayo 挟む (since 減ずるd to a 取引 地階 £5) is a salutary 思い出の品 of how absurd takeaway food prices have become. It’s not just 示すs ? the other day in Pret I was 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金d almost £8 for a soup and a pastry. As for £3.95 for a flat white (at my 地元の ‘artisan’ coffee shop), you’d have to be mad. It’s 支援する to the lunchbox for me.
