UNITED KINGDOM- British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Thursday the country had made progress in tackling racism but that it was “never done” and must still be confronted. This as a member of the British Royal Family’s household left her role after making “unacceptable and deeply regrettable” comments about race and nationality to a woman at a grand reception at Buckingham Palace.

Speaking to Sky News, Sunak declined to comment on the incident directly but said he had experienced racism growing up in Britain.
