Royal Family News – Charles Spoke To The Heads Of The Commonwealth

Charles and Boris have an apparent difference of opinion over sending migrants to Rwanda and they had a short meeting said to have lasted 15 minutes, between them. Details of the meeting were not made public and Boris Johnson, “has rowed back on earlier comments that he would tell the Prince of Wales to be open-minded about his Rwanda asylum policy if Charles raises criticism in their meeting.”

The Prime Minister told the media while in Rwanda: “I wouldn’t comment on anything that I say to the Queen or the Queen says to me, nor would I say what the heir to the throne might say to me or what I may say to him. Prime ministers never talk about that. What I will say is as people come to Rwanda, like you have today, there are a lot of prejudices about Rwanda need to be blown away.”
