Speaker: "Any moment we will open the ceremony with the flight of the national police unit ..."

Prime Minister Boris Johnson had examined his tool carefully but was still unable to use it for its intended purpose.

Although every Brit should actually master this technique thanks to constant island weather-related practice - regardless of the wind.

Prince Charles and the British Home Secretary Priti Patel at Johnson's side had a good laugh.

Boris Johnson: "I'm fine, we don't care ... oh, give me that thing!"

The English utensil par excellence - Johnson had already had a problem with it the day before.

Despite the umbrella, he got thoroughly wet during an interview outside Guildford Police Headquarters.

On social media, the British reacted amused to maliciously at the clumsiness of their prime minister.

Boris Johnson: "And thanks for the rain!"
