Following UK PM Rishi Sunak's declaration of a general election on January 4, Buckingham Palace announced the Royal Family will postpone engagements to avoid detracting from the campaign. Their Majesties expressed apologies for any inconvenience caused. Additionally, the King met with the Prime Minister earlier than usual, spending 15 minutes together at Buckingham Palace instead of their usual Wednesday evening audience. Sunak is not scheduled to visit the King again on Wednesday. Stay tuned for further updates on the election proceedings and Royal engagements.
