@Xanthippe - as prologos and S&R say, it's 1000 lashes, 50 per week, for Raif Badawi. He also has to pay a fine and complete a 10-year prison sentence in addition to the lashes. All for 'criticising Islam'. If you criticise Islam in UK, you just get called 'Islamophobic' and 'racist'
As for Prince Charles, Cameron and Obama travelling to Saudi, it seems faintly ridiculous. Is Prince Charles still Head of the C of E? And he's travelling to a country where Christianity is banned?
I think cofty has it right: unfortunately we have to deal with KSA and more good will be done behind closed doors than by public postering.
