Prince Harry begins High Court legal battle against Home Office: First hearing set to be held today over Duke of Sussex's demand for police protection when he and Meghan visit UK
Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | February 18, 2022 | James Gant

Prince Harry's High Court claim against the Home Office for not allowing him to pay for police protection while in the UK will have its first hearing on Friday.

The Duke of Sussex wants to bring his children to visit from the US, but claims they are 'unable to return to his home' because it is too dangerous, his lawyer has said.

Harry and Meghan lost their taxpayer-funded police protection in the aftermath of quitting as senior working royals in early 2020.

The Prince is arguing his private protection team in the US does not have jurisdiction abroad or access to UK intelligence which is needed to keep his family safe.

His bid for a review of the Home Office decision was filed in September.

Harry is insisting on protection from a special branch of the Met, the one that protects the royals...and has access to UK intel.

Is it the intel access that’s the draw here?

If so...why???

Still wondering if Harry is in the US on a visa that allows the Harkles to get out of paying US income taxes...

Isn’t it interesting that nobody in the enemedia has seen fit to ask him about that...

And what was the purpose of Eugenie’s recent, interestingly timed visit...?

Exchange of info that could only be done in person?

Betcha they don’t trust their comms.

I wouldn’t, either.

Per the article he is willing to pay for it:

“The Duke wants to fund the security himself, rather than ask taxpayers to foot the bill, a legal representative for Harry said.”

Sure he wants to pay. The check is in the mail. Most likely, this lifelong freeloader would find a way to stick the old man with the bill.

He can pay for top notch security elsewhere, but he wants access to royal protection officer intel.

My neighbor thinks the Monarchy has been dissolved and that the “Royal” family owns no property. Even questions whether Elizabeth is alive. Charles might end up being a KINO.

The Crown Estate owns lots of property, including the seabed around the UK where offshore windmills must pay site royalties, of which the royals get to keep 25% according to what I’ve read.

Thems the breaks. Appears that the little prince is a bit scared.

Harry probably knows most of the royal guards already. They can get SIA licenses and Harry can pay them by the hour.

There are private estates like St. George’s Hill that have basic 24/7 security.

There are probably already any number of ex-royal protection officers who work in private security that he could hire.
