Eldorado Posted December 30, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) "Ministers relaxed visa rules for polo teams to stop the Queen worrying about it damaging her beloved sport, a report has claimed. "In 2016 the Home Office suspended a special rule allowing polo teams to employ foreign players and stable workers during the English season over fears it was being exploited to let in low-skilled migrants." Full story at the UK Metro: https://metro.co.uk/2019/12/29/ministers-relaxed-rules-visas-polo-teams-please-queen-11971451/? "Experts claimed many of the more than 800 foreigners who entered the country on polo visas – each of whom was sponsored by a specific club – actually ended up working as farm labourers, rather than in the teams' stables."

TigerBright19 Posted December 31, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) When Charlie boy becomes King I doubt the nation will be as forgiving. He was a keen polo player, but also regarded fox hunting as "romantic". Imagine if ministers were keen to relax the rules on fox hunting to please the King.

+joc Posted December 31, 2019 #4 Share Posted December 31, 2019 The Queen has put forth that Charles shall not be Queen until she is dead. Poor Charles...his whole life has been spent waiting for her to die so that his could be fulfilled...and now...hell, she may very well outlive him! Pitty... And poor, dear, Camilla...tsk, tsk... LONG LIVE THE QUEEN! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
