It said: “The council did not carry out an assessment, provide advice or take any other action before closing Mr X’s case in February 2023. The council was aware at this stage that Mr X was living in his car and that on occasions his 16 year old son also spent the night in the car with him.

From 1643 to 1660, while both princes were alive, Philippe was commonly known as le Petit Monsieur, while Gaston, his uncle, was known as le Grand Monsieur. [4] [5] [ unreliable source?]The title was restored in 1775 for Louis Stanislas Xavier, Count of Provence, the oldest surviving brother of the reigning Louis XVI and the future Louis XVIII. After his coronation in 1814, the title passed to Charles Philippe, Count of Artois, his younger brother. [6] Charles Philippe, who led the ultras during the Bourbon Restoration and became King Charles X in 1824, [7] was the last royal sibling to officially hold the title of Monsieur. His successor, Louis-Philippe I, the next and last king to rule France, had lost both his brothers, Louis Charles and Antoine Philippe, many years before he succeeded to the throne. In modern French, monsieur (plural messieurs) is used as a courtesy title of respect, an equivalent of English " mister" or "sir". [2] It can be abbreviated in M. (plural MM.), Mssr. (plural Mssrs.), [9] and rarely M r (plural M rs), but never Mr., which is only for Mister. Mr X told the council he had been sleeping in his car for three months and that his 16-year-old son sometimes had to sleep in the car with him. He said he had been removed from the housing register and could not rejoin and could not rent a property privately as he received Universal Credit. Chisholm, Hugh, ed. (1911). "Charles IX.

This true story of 1960s and 1970s French racing life through the lens of Patrice Des Moutis - named Monsieur X in court documents - as he took on the PMU, the monopoly betting pool provider who went to war with him, was quite enjoyable. Patrice des Moutis was a handsome, charming and well educated Frenchman with an aristocratic family, a respectable insurance business, and a warm welcome in the smartest Parisian salons. He was also a compulsive gambler and illegal bookie.This is indeed an incredible story...but a very sad one, too. Patrice des Moutis is the sort of character that modern day horse racing sorely misses, and Jamie Reid does a wonderful job introducing you to the man, his great charm and undeniable brilliance. The report outlined how Mr X had lived in the city since 2012, but did not speak or read English, relying on his sons and brother to translate for him. As a result, this made communication with the council difficult. For over seventy years, from 1701 to 1774, the title had no living representatives in the French court, as Philippe of France, died in 1701; Louis XV was the youngest of the sons of Louis of France, Duke of Burgundy and at the time of his accession to the throne in 1715 had no brothers.
