Leading political figures from around the world have arrived in the UK ahead of Liz Truss - and a series of "chats" with new Prime Minister Liz Truss are set to take place on the fringes of what doubles as a diplomatic occasion.
Those to have thus far landed in the UK include Justin Trudeau, Joe Biden and Jacinda Ardern. However, President Biden - who arrived at Stansted late on Saturday night - had to cancel a planned catch up with the PM. Instead the pair will hold a formal bilateral meeting in New York at the United Nations General Assembly later in the week.
Canadian PM Justin Trudeau was among five world leaders to hold audiences with King Charles on Saturday afternoon, and Mr Trudeau also signed a condolences book at Lancaster House in London. Others to speak with the new King were Australia leader Anthony Albanese, The Bahamas’ PM Philip Davis, Jamaican PM Andrew Holness, and Jacinda Ardern from New Zealand.
