UK Prince Harry charged with "treason" against the royal family
Interview Meghan Markle thought about committing suicide during her years with the British Royal Family
Boris Johnson has expressed his "highest appreciation" for Queen
Elizabeth II
and praised "her unifying role" in the face of accusations of "racial hostility" in the royal family launched by Prince Harry and Meghan Markel during their explosive interview with Oprah on CBS (to air this Monday night in the UK on ITV).
"I have always followed the policy of not commenting on matters of the royal family and I have no intention of changing that policy today,"
said the 'premier', in anticipation of the anticipation of his press conference on the Coronavirus.
Johnson repeatedly dodged questions, including one from a 'The Sun' reporter, who inquired about the UK's perception as a racist country after Harry and Meghan's interview.
"I commend you for your determination in trying to get me involved in the story," Johnson replied.
"But I really think that, in matters of the royal family,
what the prime minister should do is say nothing
, and nothing is what I propose to say today on that particular issue."
Faced with the silence of Buckingham Palace,
the Labor opposition has nevertheless called for the opening of an internal investigation
.
"The allegations we have heard are disturbing and shocking," said Labor MP and Education spokesperson
Kate Green
.
"I think the Palace will think very carefully about the answer, and certainly people are going to wonder what it can answer," Green added.
"But there can never be an excuse, under any circumstances, to justify racism.
It is important that action is taken to investigate such shocking allegations."
Secretary of State for Children,
Vicky Ford,
was the first to break the pact of silence within the Johnson Cabinet.
"There is no place for racism in our society," he declared.
"We must all work together to stop it."
Ford specifically referred to Meghan's allegations, claiming that a member of the royal family even speculated about "how dark her son Archie's skin would be" when he was born.
Meghan preferred not to identify the author of the racist comment,
"because it would be very, very damaging."
In subsequent statements, he clarified that neither Queen Elizabeth II nor
Philip of Edinburgh
were the authors of that comment.
Several British media reported that the author could have been Sophie,
Countess of Wessex and wife of Prince Edward.
"Racism is a big part of the reason we left the UK," Harry confessed in a new segment of the interview released on Monday, to Oprah's direct question.
"Someone warned me at a dinner party that it was going to be hard for us because the UK is an intolerant country.
I thought however that it is only a part of the press that is intolerant."
