By one of her own MPs, King Charles was persuaded to attend a climate change summit next month and disregard Liz Truss’s advice to stay away.
According to reports, the new King, a seasoned environmental activist, canceled plans to speak at the COP27 gathering in Egypt when the Egyptian Prime Minister objected.
Last night, sources from Buckingham Palace revealed that Prince Charles will no longer be attending the function he had planned to attend as Prince of Wales.
However, sources said he was not barred from attending by the prime minister and emphasized that he had sought No. 10’s counsel. According to them, the decision for the King not to go was unanimous.
Today, though, Tobias Elwood said he still contemplating going.
He remarked on the Internet, “I hope common sense will prevail.” Regarding the environment and climate change, King Charles is a widely revered voice.
His presence would bolster the credibility of the British mission. Can we genuinely go from hosting COP26 to abandoning soft power at COP27?
In the meantime, Leveling Up Secretary Simon Clarke stated that the decision for the King not to attend the international conference in Egypt was made “consensually” by the Government and the Palace.
Tobias Ellwood, a member of the Conservative Party, recommended that King Charles should still consider attending.
The decision, according to Simon Clarke, Secretary of State for Levelling Up, was made by both
Mr. E;;wood’s intervention is unlikely to be appreciated by the embattled new prime minister, Liz Truss.
King Charles is a longtime advocate for environmental campaigns and causes.
It has been made obvious that the King and the government have reached a consensus on this matter, he told Times Radio.
According to my knowledge, this decision was reached amicably between the Palace and the Government. There is no truth to the claims made this morning that he was ordered to stay away.
I believe it is completely different for the host nation of a significant event like as Cop to involve the head of state than for the head of state to attend an event organized in Egypt.
In the regular order of events, the government would handle this situation rather than the monarchy.
There was speculation that the move was Charles’s first indication of accepting his new role as king, after he stated that he would scale back on his campaign activities now that he was the monarch.
A source stated, “There is no indication of a dispute.” Whether or not members of the Royal Family attend depends on the Foreign Office. We do not comment on private talks between HM The King and the Prime Minister, Downing Street stated late last night.
It was rumored that the King intended to deliver a speech at the forthcoming Cop27 conference that would conflict with the current administration’s watered-down climate change policies.
The Palace and the Government ‘decided jointly there might be more suitable possibilities’ for Charles’s first State visit, according to sources, who added, ‘The notion that the Prime Minister can compel the King to do something is ludicrous.’
However, The Sunday Times stated that during a personal encounter last month, Ms. Truss opposed to his participation in the Sharm-el-Sheik meeting.
The story stated that there had been no dispute, but a senior royal source stated that the decision was made based on the advice of the government and was “completely in keeping with his duty as king to act on government advice.”
According to the source, he had to carefully consider what actions to take for his first international tour, and he will not be attending COP.
Charles apparently remained committed to exerting his influence during the conference. A top Royal insider stated, “Just because he is not physically present does not imply that His Majesty will not support the event in other ways.”
According to another source, the Queen delivered a completely non-political presentation to the COP last year… It appears that he is not given an option. This is a judgment error on the side of the government.
Last night, it was unclear whether Prince William would attend instead.
