Receiving the following link, https://shorturl.at/b4f00, has prompted me to express my view on this matter. Why am I not surprised that those in charge at the Tower of London “politely decline” to mention Philippa Langley’s research which has produced definitive documentary proof that the two boys in the Tower lived to adulthood?

Yet again the suggestion circulates that King Charles is in favour of examining the contents of That Urn. Good for him, it’s long overdue for this mystery to be looked at again.
