Foreign bigwigs looking to attend the Queen’s funeral have been asked to leave their private jets at home by the UK government.
Those dignitaries looking to attend the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II have been reportedly asked by the UK government not to come to the event in a private jet, and that they will also be required to leave their personal cars and helicopters at home for the state occasion.
While justified with reference to logistical concerns, the request may also avoid negative headlines about the environmental impact of traffic jams in the skies of private planes on one hand, and allegations of hypocrisy from world leaders who preach net-zero for others but enjoy private air travel themselves. Similar was witnessed when Britain hosted the previous COP26 green agenda conference, which saw hundreds of gas-guzzling private jets arrive in the country carrying officials talking about climate change.
According to a report by POLITICO, official documents detailing the procedures for the funeral request that foreign dignitaries, including heads of state, arrive in Britain on commercial flights where possible.
For those that insist on using private jets, however, UK officials have requested that “less busy airports” around London are used, with the official document notifying foreign dignitaries that the city’s Heathrow airport will not be available for private flights or aircraft parking.

They’ll charter an entire bus for one person just to show how aware they are. LOL
Well, we know now how his reign is going to go.
Heck, they'll charter the entire airline.
Dr. Jill and Joey will entertain with Wheels on the Bus!!
Also imagine if some counties can use helicopters while others have to send their leaders by bus. The president of Guacamolestan might declare war on the UK if he is the first country below the line.
While not-yet-crowned King Charles III travels around the U.K. in private jets and helos. Do as I say, not as I do.
Well I guess brandon can’t go then......which is a good thing BTW.
Sniff, sniff...how can you NOT feel so sorry for our betters, having to leave their Gulfstreams at home and ride the bus? Sob.
That just means they fly their jets to an airport out of sight and mind and take the bus from there.
Real story. Joschka Fischer former German secretary of state and once the environmental secretary had his Mercedes limo pull over, pulled a bicycle from the trunk, and then rode into town where the cameras were.
All optics, all bullshit.
But the kids and media eat that up today.
king charles III is all about the global warming optics...
Cow. Deer. Ewe. as greta would bray.
Bad optics will occur this winter when people freeze to death. Bad optics will occur when millions in the 3rd world will die of starvation next year.
The virtue signaling is blinding.
Biden will fly into the nearest US military base (Mildenhall?) and the Secret Service will be in charge of the bus. If other passengers are needed, State Department will recruit some NWO stooges.
Their cowardliness is disrespect to the queen’s memory. Probably intentional.. from their own cognitive dissonance. Which being leftist, they have in abundance.
This has King Charles III fingerprints ALL OVER IT!...............................
