British PM Rish Sunak has broken his silence over the racism scandal engulfing Buckingham Palace.

The Prime Minister was asked his view on the “interrogation” by Lady Susan Hussey, who has resigned from her role within the royal household.

The Queen’s former lady-in-waiting repeatedly questioned a prominent black British-born domestic abuse charity boss, about where she “really came from”.

Mr Sunak told broadcasters: “It wouldn’t be right for me to comment on matters to do with the royal palace. As we’ve all seen, they’ve acknowledged what’s happened and made an apology for it.”

“As I’ve talked about in the past, I have experienced racism in my life.

“But what I am pleased to say is some of the things that I experienced when I was a kid and a young person I don’t think would happen today because our country has made incredible progress in tackling racism.

“But the job is never done and that’s why when whenever we see it we must confront it.”
