mtravel Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 pelmetman - 2021-02-06 9:57 AM How many Tourists travel to Jockland to see her? >:-) ........... We have a forum with 100,000+ motorhomers registered. Every year, starting from November / December it is filled with threads about the United Kingdom (Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, etc.). Do you know how many there have been from late 2019 to today? Zero, read well, zero, none. And the covid was still to come, certainly Brexit and its uncertainties have pushed a lot of tourists away. Whether the tourists come to see that operetta show that is the changing of the guard has yet to be proven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think we will be allowing anyone from europe in if they dont get vaccinated, Brexit has very little to do with tourists coming.

CurtainRaiser Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 So Queenie interferes in legislation because she is embarrassed by her riches. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/feb/07/revealed-queen-lobbied-for-change-in-law-to-hide-her-private-wealth?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other This isn't Royal Ascent, this is Royal Consent. "Queen’s Consent is the right of the monarch (and the heir to the throne) to be consulted on – and thereby to veto – any legislation that affects the private interests of the crown. Imagine if the constitution of the United States provided formally for the president of the day – Donald Trump or otherwise – to intervene in congress to stop or to amend proposed legislation that affected the financial interests of the president or the president’s family. That is what the Queen’s Consent provides for in the United Kingdom. It is a structural right to lobby beyond the dreams of any cynical Westminster ‘public affairs’ firm."
