His Majesty King Charles III received Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester, in audience at Buckingham Palace on 20 July 2026 — a formal meeting of Crown and city leadership in the Yellow Drawing Room.

The photograph, issued through the Royal Rota Pool, records the occasion for the LIKE® Diplomacy United Kingdom Leaders folio: state ceremony, regional government, and the continuing public face of the monarchy at home.

LIKE® Magazine presents the plate as Leaders coverage — not a Summit Season issue cover — under Diplomacy / United Kingdom.
