The King has spoken of how he has been “greatly encouraged by the many examples of community spirit that had countered the aggression and criminality from a few” – as he reflected on the recent violent disorder seen across the country.
On Friday evening, the monarch held a phone audience with the prime minister and leading police chiefs after the palace confirmed earlier in the week that he has been receiving daily updates on the situation.
A Buckingham Palace spokesperson said the King spoke to Sir Keir Starmer, along with holding a joint call with the chair of the National Police Chiefs’ Council, Chief Constable Gavin Stephens, and UK Gold Commander Ben Harrington, chief constable of Essex.
This was said to be in addition to private calls he had made throughout the week concerning the events and “in particular” the impact they had on affected communities.
“In these calls, His Majesty was updated on the current situation and expressed his heartfelt thanks to the police and emergency services for all they are doing to restore peace in those areas that have been affected by violent disorder,” the spokesperson continued.
At this time of year, due to summer holidays, there is not a regular weekly audience between the prime minister and the monarch, not least because by convention these would always happen in person, so this phone call specifically took place so they could discuss in detail the recent riots and the issues they have raised.
Sharing the King’s response to recent events, the spokesperson added: “The King shared how he had been greatly encouraged by the many examples of community spirit that had countered the aggression and criminality from a few with the compassion and resilience of the many.
“It remains His Majesty’s hope that shared values of mutual respect and understanding will continue to strengthen and unite the nation.”
Throughout his time as heir and monarch, a cornerstone of his official work has revolved around community cohesion and celebrating Britain’s diverse communities.
