Prime Minister Rishi Sunak Roasts Prince Harry in Christmas Video
In a lighthearted Christmas video, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak publicly pokes fun at Prince Harry for his recent phone call with King Charles.
The video, shared from Downing Street, features Sunak extending holiday wishes to his followers.
However, it is his playful jibe at the Duke of Sussex that has caught the attention of some Brits on social media.
The video begins with Sunak alone in Number 10, writing letters.
Realizing he is the only one home, he decides to have some fun and playfully knocks over a set of Coca-Cola cans, mimicking a cricket bowling action.
He then turns his attention to Larry the Cat, giving him a kiss before adding the final touches to his Christmas tree.
Settling down to enjoy a plate of fish and chips while watching the film Elf, Sunak hears the phone in Downing Street's press office ringing.
He picks up the call, only to humorously inform the caller, who is believed to be Harry, that they have dialed the wrong number.
Some fans speculate that this joke is a reference to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex not receiving an invitation to the Royal Christmas at Sandringham.
One Twitter user commented, “Even Rishi, the UK's Prime Minister, is roasting Prince Harry.”
It is worth noting that such public ridicule is unusual, even for Prince Andrew, who has faced his fair share of criticism.
Before Christmas, it was revealed that Prince Harry had reached out to King Charles in an attempt to mend ties and secure an invitation for himself and Meghan Markle.
However, despite an extensive guest list that included the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, for the first time in over three decades, Harry and Meghan were not invited.
This video from Rishi Sunak comes after Prince Harry publicly criticized the Prime Minister and the government.
Harry accused Sunak's government of being at rock bottom and avoiding scrutiny by cozying up to friendly newspapers.
Breaking royal protocol once again, Harry used his appearance in the phone hacking trial to criticize the serving government, claiming that democracy in the UK was under threat due to the collaboration between media outlets and the government.
It seems that this Christmas, there are numerous messages for Harry.
Some speculate that he may have been calling the government office to discuss security matters.
However, the humorous response from Sunak suggests that the whole of the UK, regardless of political views, is united in their disdain for Harry.
It is a stark reminder that the press he receives now is far from favorable, despite his intentions to control the narrative by leaving the UK.
As a result, it appears that Harry is not welcome back in the UK.
Regardless of one's personal feelings towards him, this incident highlights the divisive nature of politics and the impact it can have on public opinion.
In this case, it seems that the general sentiment towards Harry is one of disapproval.
