Iran's Islamic Republic with nuclear weapons would be 1000 times worse than North Korea.

Translated from Persian:

We are witnessing an uprising in Tehran beginning to draw energy and momentum.

The army of the hungry is taking shape and gathering force.

Fear of the regime in certain parts of Tehran no longer exists; it is turning into anger.

A particular rumor is now spreading, especially in Tehran and Ahvaz: the burning of proxy forces once the uprising begins.

Now we see one of the reasons Pakistan was so eager to host talks and push for the war to end, they are about to run out of LNG.

Pakistan is facing its worst energy crisis in years, with rolling blackouts lasting up to 14 hours in rural areas. The government has imposed austerity measures, including two-hour daily power cuts, a four-day work week, halved fuel allocations for government vehicles, and even asked cricket fans to watch matches from home to save fuel. Subsidies were scrapped and fuel prices raised.
Nearly all of Pakistan’s LNG comes from Qatar, but shipments stopped in March due to regional disruptions. This has forced the country to buy expensive spot-market LNG for the first time in over two years. Meanwhile, Pakistan secured $1.2 billion from the IMF and $3 billion from Saudi Arabia to support its reserves.

Any chance King Charles sent a message across after speaking with Trump?

You can bet that the rail lines in Iran will be the targets of any new attacks. Not really important internally, but removes another option of transporting oil to China.

More likely that the UK wants to express solidarity with the Iranian Regime given their common Muslim heritage and dislike for the US and Israel.

Listening to the radio

They are saying he was summoned because Iranian comments were geared toward stirring up the Muslims in the UK

Highly unlikely he would get involved in the process. The King's role is mainly ceremonial at this point. The only reason he is visiting the US is because it's "soft" diplomacy, which is about the only type he engages in.

Maybe he’ll stop by Pahlavi’s place in Maryland before heading back across the pond.

Which is a massive ringing endorsement for open borders.

The value proposition at this point is something like "lets bring a bunch of people without any marketable skills, have a fierce dislike of our native culture, require assistance programs to prevent them from robbing and looting our stores and who are prone at the provocation of a foreign government to rise up against our government and commit terror acts. Oh, and they rape our women and children at an unprecedented rate while screaming racism when held accountable."

Specifically Iranians. This is the second time in as many months that the Iranian ambassador to the UK has been summoned.

Iran doesn't really have that much reach to get support from Muslims broadly. They originally posted the message in Persian, which is a limited regional language at this point, and represent a minority of Muslims in terms of sect. Iranians outside of Iran, unlike other countries, generally tend to be very secular.

IRAN THREATENS UAE
An Iranian lawmaker is now openly threatening the United Arab Emirates.

Ali Khezrian, a member of Iran’s national security committee, accused the United Arab Emirates of preparing to support the United States in a potential future strike on Iran.

His warning:
If Abu Dhabi aligns with Washington, it will be “taught a lesson.”

It wasn't meant to be sent to Iranians abroad, as you said their support for the IRGC is minute. It is meant for devout muslims abroad. Many of which know how to use a google translate app or simply read it online like we do... already translated.
