Hilarious again? British media: Dissatisfied with the cancellation of security measures, Prince Harry threatened to sue the British government

author:Bright Net

According to the British "Daily Mail" reported on the 15th, due to dissatisfaction with the British government's cancellation of security measures for him, Harry threatened to take legal action against the government. Queen Elizabeth II has allegedly been informed of her grandson's actions, which will be the first time a member of the royal family has filed a lawsuit against the government during the Queen's reign. At present, the Harrys have not commented on the news.

The Daily Mail revealed that Harry's lawyers had written a "pre-action agreement letter" to the Home Office, saying that if the Harrys did not receive security security while in the UK, they would request a judicial review. Harry believes that his removal from security measures was a wrong decision. One source said Mr. Harry wanted to sue the British government because he was secured when he returned to Britain last April for Prince Philip's funeral, but when he returned in the summer, protections were lifted. British media said that the Harrys did not hide their dissatisfaction with the British government's lifting of security measures.

Whether to provide security for Harry after he stepped down from the royal family The "Royal and Noble Executive Committee", composed of the Home Secretary, the Metropolitan Police's Head of Royal Protection and Royal Officials, decided that the Harrys were no longer members of the royal family living in the United Kingdom and could not continue to provide them with 24-hour protection. The decision infuriated Harry, who said in a televised interview with U.S. talk show host Oprah last March: "My family cut me off from my financial resources and I have to take care of my own security." ”

The Daily Mail said Harry's decision to take legal action against the government could not only exacerbate tensions between him and his family, but also create a problem for the Queen. Previously, the Queen stripped Prince Andrew of his military rank and royal patron status after facing charges of sexual abuse. Like Harry, Andrew will no longer use the title "His Highness" and may lose his security as a result.

The Daily Mail said the lawsuit between Harry and the British government could be costly, and the loser would not pay all the legal fees. However, the Harrys have many sources of income, including a supposedly £18m deal with streaming giant Spotify and a partnership with Netflix.
