'Screaming in the embassy' - will UK ambo's Israel comments derail King's visit?

If you just listen out, you can actually hear them screaming in the embassy.Like, this couldn't have dropped at a worse time for him at the very moment that they've rolled out King Charles to kind of help the special relationship.

The British ambassador, Christian Turner, in Washington, relatively recent to the job after the demise of Peter Mandelson, has said some things on the record, it seems, that are really quite surprising.And you could say, you know, bombshells.diplomatic bombshells, especially given the current visit by the King.Tell us more, Anoushka.

I mean, you could say on the record.I don't think he thought they were on the record.He was doing a Q &A with students visiting Washington shortly after the He arrived here in Washington, D .C., and I think he probably thought he was talking privately, let's be honest.And he certainly didn't expect the comments to come out in the middle of the special relationship.

Two things are really embarrassing in what he said.One is basically, he's clearly asked about the special relationship and he's said, we're not.special to the U .S.There's only one country that the U .S.

has a special relationship with and that is Israel.If you just listen out you can actually hear them screaming in the embassy like this couldn't have dropped at a worse time for him at the very moment that they've rolled out King Charles to kind of help the special relationship.
