King's Christmas message urges unity in divided world
The King's Christmas message has invoked the wartime spirit, calling on communities to pull together in an increasingly divided world and urging people to get "to know our neighbours".
His traditional speech, recorded in Westminster Abbey, remembered this year's 80th anniversaries of VE Day and VJ Day and said we should "never lose sight" of the values in which "communities came together in the face of such great challenge".
The King, speaking in the abbey's medieval Lady Chapel, also hailed the "spontaneous bravery" of those who helped in emergencies, such as the Bondi Beach attack in Australia.
A Ukrainian choir sang a carol, with many of the group's singers in the UK because of the war.
