French President Macron's UK state visit included meetings with King Charles and Keir Starmer, a Windsor Castle banquet featuring unusual dishes, and coincided with the Bayeux Tapestry's upcoming display at the British Museum. Macron's visit followed the cancellation of King Charles's planned trip to France due to protests over pension reforms. The visit also sparked controversy, with a right-wing party criticizing Macron for a perceived snub and ongoing debate over the number of penises depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry.
