No paid escort for Prince Harry in UK, court ruled

No paid police: the prince Harry loses case against British Homeland mystery over request to review the decision that he could not pay the police out of his own pocket to escort him during his visit to the UK. The High Court in London reiterated the negative answer: Prince Harry is not authorized to pay the state police for his personal protection. The reason? As reported by the Telegraphthe High Court opposed the request of King Charles’s second son because the «police are not paid and a rich person should not be able to buy special police services». Hence the negative response to review the non-authorization decision. Also because – points out the Telegraph – «it would be against the public interest to allow wealthy people to pay for any police service».

A decision, this one, which brings the issue of protection of the Sussexes, after the car accident in which they were involved in recent days. An incident that the couple’s spokesman defined as “potentially catastrophic”, but on which there is no lack of doubts about the real trend of the facts.

The Sussex spokesman spoke of an “almost catastrophic” episode, the authorities specify that “there are no injuries or arrests”. Meanwhile, the mayor of New York has branded the behavior of photographers as “irresponsible”, evoking the memory of Lady Diana

According to reports from the magazine People, Prince Harry has offered to pay the police service for the safety of his entire family after the now famous Megxit, that is when he and his wife Meghan Markle took a step back from the Royal Family by deciding to move to America. By losing royal status, they lost the right to escort. Hence the proposal for a personal payment also in order not to burden taxpayers.

“His goal was simple: ensure safety for himself and his family while in the UK so that his children can learn about his home country» explained one of his spokesmen. Her request was immediately rejected by the British government. Then, in 2022, the Duke of Sussex got the go-ahead to challenge the ministry’s decision, asking that his request be reviewed. But the High Court in London reiterated its no.

The British police, however, are ready to serve protection to the Sussexes but only at their discretion and not for private compensation.
