The Union Jack flag at Buckingham Palace was flying at half-staff on October 27th, a rare occurrence for the royal residence. The last time the flag was flown in this way was when Prince Philip died in February 2017. Today’s half-staffing of the flag came after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that former Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer had tested positive for Covid. This meant that he would not be able to attend PMQs or answer questions on the Budget 2022.
