Trevor Noah Claims He Was Misunderstood On His Comments About UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak

The TV star added: “Our monarch understands the problem, cares about it passionately, and will have more impact on creating action from governments around the world than any member of parliament will.”King Charles is currently set to follow Rishi’s advice that he should skip the event, although the Environment Secretary, Thérèse Coffey, suggested on Thursday that it was up to the monarch if he attended the conference.Former Prime Minister Liz Truss had originally advised His Majesty to stay away from the conference because she wanted to use his first foreign trip for diplomatic leverage with nations such as Canada. A Downing Street spokeswoman confirmed on Thursday that the government had advised the monarch to stay away from the summit.She said: “As is standard practice, government advice was sought and provided under a previous PM, and it was unanimously agreed it would not be the right occasion for the King to visit.”Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer called on Rishi to “show leadership” by attending the event to promote unity among world leaders.He said: "Many people would be expecting a prime minister of the UK not just to attend but to use it as an opportunity to pull world leaders together to deal with climate.”Rishi said last week that he believed it was “right” to instead focus on the UK economy before Chancellor Jeremy Hunt’s autumn Budget on November 17.On a visit to Croydon University Hospital, in south London, he said: “The leadership that we have shown on the climate is unmatched almost along the world.“It’s important to me that we leave behind an environment that is better for our children and grandchildren.”The PM continued: “I’m personally committed to it.“I just think, at the moment, it’s right that I’m

Sajid Javid.Others, such as Piers Morgan on his show Uncensored, criticised The Daily Show for falsely portraying the UK as a racist country.Responding to Piers on Twitter, Noah said: “C’mon Piers you're smarter than that.“I wasn't saying 'The entire UK is racist', I was responding to the racists who don't want Rishi as PM because of his race...“That's why I said 'Some people’."However, Piers retaliated to Trevor by saying: “No, you c'mon Trevor... there was no 'backlash' in the UK to Rishi Sunak becoming PM because of his heritage.“You made that up to create a racism narrative that simply didn't happen... “And we Brits are bored of US media (& disingenuous duchesses) making us out to be a bunch of racists.”It comes after the presenter released his monologue, titled “Unpacking the backlash against new UK PM Rishi Sunak.”He said: “What I mean by that is this, you hear a lot of the people saying 'Oh, they're taking over, now the Indians are going to take over Great Britain and what's next?'“And I always find myself going 'So what? What are you afraid of?'”Former chancellor and health secretary Mr Javid shared the clip and wrote: “Simply wrong.“A narrative catered to his audience, at a cost of being completely detached from reality.”Asked whether Mr Sunak believes Britain is a racist country, a Downing Street spokeswoman said: “No he doesn’t.”In the comments section on the short clip, viewed over 850,000 times, social media users also criticised Noah for “projecting” his “American” views on race onto Britain. Tom Harwood said: “What backlash? Where? You’re making things up.” Mike Preston wrote: "I wasn't aware there had been a backlash except among the woke left such as Noah.

Kanye West is dominating the news lately, but definitely not in good ways.

Incoming British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has promised to unite the country “not with words but with actions” and said “mistakes were made” during the disastrous 44-day reign of his now-predecessor Liz Truss.

THIS Morning has been taken off air today and replaced by an ITV News special. The schedule shake-up comes after Rishi Sunak became the new leader of the Conservative Party and, as a result, the country's new prime minister. The rest of the schedule remains unaffected with Loose Women airing as normal from 12.30pm.

Piers Morgan and Lord Alan Sugar's attitudes to one another over recent years have ranged from friendly rivalry and banter to full on war, with Piers even being compared to Hitler on one occasion. When the two were snapped on holiday together earlier in the year, after Piers had said he would "never forgive" his frenemy, it seemed as though the pair really had let sleeping dogs lie, but Alan reignited the argument when he called out Piers for publishing "old news" about the PM.Yesterday, Piers had tweeted: "BREAKING: Boris Johnson pulls out of Conservative Party's leadership race, paving the way for @RishiSunak to become Britain’s next Prime Minister.

Boris Johnson has dramatically pulled out the race for 10 Downing Street after admitting he cannot unite the warring Conservative Party.

One of Boris Johnson’s closest allies has claimed the former Prime Minister is “clearly” standing to succeed Liz Truss.

Rishi Sunak is leading the race to become the UK's next Prime Minister, with Piers Morgan, 57, backing the MP. However, also in the running is Boris Johnson, with the TalkTV host sharing his distate for the former Prime Minister on Twitter.Liz Truss stood down as PM on Thursday, with her departure coming after just 45 days in office, making her the shortest-serving Prime Minister in history.As the search for the next leader begins, Piers took to Twitter today to slate Boris in view of his 7.9 million followers.He penned: "Put your country before your bruised ego@BorisJohnson - and stand aside to let @RishiSunak become PM."We need a serious, calm, economy-intelligent brain in charge in these turbulent times, and they’re not your strengths."Many social media users rushed to the comments to share their view on the upcoming election.Bradygirl45 said: "I don't understand how a prime minister can be forced out due to a lack of honesty one month and bought back as the best option the next."What does that say about the Tories? It baffles me."IanHodges69 added: "They should all stand aside and we have a General Election!"They have had plenty of chances and made too many mistakes.

Boris Johnson has been accused of 'lying over having 100 backers for Prime Minister' after Rishi Sunak demanded proof.
