Rishi Sunak stood in the back row for the world leaders’ group photo at Cop27 as he mingled with Portugal’s prime minister António Costa.
Mr Sunak and Mr Costa were spotted at the climate summit in Egypt chatting before the “family photo” of the world leaders was taken.
They are Europe’s two prime ministers of Indian descent, with both of their families being from India via East Africa.

Sunak's talking to Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa who's also of Indian heritage. His parents were from the former Portuguese colony of Goa. Costa was recently re-elected on a landslide of turning around Portugal's economy. He might be giving Sunak some advice on how to handle the UK economy?
What we need is to make a localised conflict into a Global problem. That shows the commitment our politicians have to dealing with and Environmental Change. The IPCC Report says nothing about fostering war and division. It demands Global co-operation to reduce the fall from the Cliff-edge we are heading for.
Sunak starve and tax the poor English. Sunak must be replaced by a labour party PM.
Sunak rishi and his family should be investigated …
Sunak do not forget to tax yourself and your family Who cares… they are all the same… who care about the uk poor families but to starve them more and make the rich richers. Uk needs a lot mericales…
Out of 65 million imbeciles in uk, the only one you choose is this stupid. Uk economy will be okay if you Stop supporting ukraine and your corrupt system should stop interfering in other faith family affairs. But you will fail as the imbecile rules imbeciles.
Sunak has promised the U.K. will pay out a million million pounds (ie a trillion) to other countries for vague fuzzy ideas and to fill political pockets. But granny here can freeze.
Get this man out of office. He’s a globalist.
Dois palhaços.
Donald Trump will remove the Anarchists in America by the end of the week and he doesn't believe in the climate hoax
A shameful con.
Again.
🇵🇹
Bunch of corrupt lying criminals, arrest them all
Isn’t it weird how if we kept telling people for decades that within a few short years the entire world was going to end and we’d all die in biblical level catastrophes and it just kept on never happening over and over again, we’d get called ‘crazy conspiracy theorists’?
But when global governments and their controlled media keep doing exactly the same thing for decades and we start to question it – we’re somehow still the ‘crazy conspiracy theorists’!
Mad how that works out hey?
Good to see you engaging with other leaders. Good relations are essential for world stability and the stability and growth of the UK.

Mr.
my favorite hero
I keep getting soldiers without account
I woke up for many reasons
The biggest reason – this virus has its owner
11 members of my Black Judgment President Team A died
I don't see people who would value each of my assistant scientists
I don't see a virus that won't produce an antibiotic vaccine
I am called the president of the scientist group
Meanwhile people are having to choose between food and heat.
