Exactly! It is the POLITICIANS who will need security! They are the ones who have made an unholy mess of everything!
Since they are using Cold War plans, I assume there must be undisclosed safe houses, maybe even bunkers that would be used in the event of a nuclear war as there are in the US. I don't think they are talking about Sandringham or Balmoral here.
Stay safe, those of you in the UK, and please let us know if you need any food, clothing, or medicine sent your way! ?
Can you send me some pop tarts please, brown cinnamon ??
The only thing I can think of is if London becomes chaotic with protests and riots, members of the royal family would essentially be trapped in BP, KP, and CH.
Not always. Helicopters can only land in certain places. That’s why we often see Camilla and Charles taking off or landing in KP. And if there are mass rioting on the street, armored vehicles aren’t going to be enough. But again, that would under extenuating circumstances.They'd never be trapped because they have access to armed military, armed police & a fleet of helicopters to whisk them away.

The Royal family has the entire Guards Division stationed 'over the road' from Buckingham Palace in Birdcage Walk, in the staggeringly unlikely eventuality these mass riots occur...

I read somewhere that there's a tunnel between CH & BP so they could use that & get a chopper there. It's not going to be needed though because any mass rioting (if it happens at all) wouldn't be around any of the royal homes.
What is the status of Bea and Eugenie's police protection? Does Andrew pay for it or do they just not have any?
I know Diana after the divorce was offered Police protection but decided against it. However if she had accepted it would this have been permanent even if she had re-married? This is because if Diana was alive today you would be in the position of both Diana and Camilla having police protection.
I know this is just speculation and we'll never know but if Diana was still alive today and Charles had married Camilla or someone completely new (which would have been very unlikely). Interest in Diana in a royal sense could have been gradually reduced as there was a new Princess of Wales and a royal replacement for Diana who would be the former Princess of Wales?

Well - he didn't remarry so it isn't quite the same but does Fergie have police protection? It's a shame Andrew messed up his life so badly - if he had just waited he could have gotten his daughters that working royals role he wanted for them.
