Penny Mordaunt 'threatened to pull out of TV debate' if she couldn't apologise for D-Day blunder
Friday, 20 December 2024 Former cabinet minister Penny Mordaunt has revealed she threatened to pull out of a general election TV debate if she couldn't apologise for Rishi Sunak skipping a D-Day event.
In a dramatic analogy, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to a children's brawl, saying it's better to “let them fight for a while” before peace is enforced. During his Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump claimed acting like a referee, not a peacemaker. He also hinted at possible punitive actions against both nations if the war doesn't end, stating “it takes two to tango.” Merz, invoking D-Day history, urged Trump to use America’s power to stop Putin and bring peace to Europe.

King Charles III opened Canada’s new parliamentary session with a rare “speech from the throne”—only the third such address by a reigning monarch in Canadian history. In a powerful and symbolic gesture, the King began with a land acknowledgement, honoring the Algonquin and Anishinaabeg peoples, and called for deeper understanding and action on truth and reconciliation. It was his 20th visit to Canada, but his first as King. The ceremony blended Commonwealth traditions with Indigenous representation unique to Canada’s identity.

Sir Keir Starmer says England faces a "never-ending fight for our flag and what it represents", during a speech to mark St George’s Day at 10 Downing Street. The prime minister shares his worries about the far-right claiming ownership of the English flag at a reception to mark the nation’s patron saint. Sir Keir also praises England for its diversity, pointing to the difference between his "working class" background and his predecessor Rishi Sunak, "an English Hindu", who both become prime minister.
