"Queens, New York"

Queen Elizabeth addressed the UN General Assembly in New York. The 84-year-old monarch stepped up to the podium and ordered a Big Mac, French fries and a cup of tea.

It was the queen’s first visit to the UN in over 50 years, and times have certainly changed. Back in 1957, when the queen entered the UN building, it was perfectly acceptable for her to have said, “What are all these Negroes doing here?”
