Eldorado Posted March 25, 2021 #1 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Police have been barred from searching the Queen’s private estates for stolen or looted artefacts after ministers granted her a personal exemption from a law that protects the world’s cultural property, the Guardian can reveal. Buckingham Palace and the government are refusing to say why it was deemed necessary in 2017 to give the Queen an exemption that prevents police from searching Balmoral and Sandringham. A spokesperson for the Queen dismissed any suggestion that stolen or looted artefacts were being held on the monarch’s private estates.

+OverSword Posted March 25, 2021 #6 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I think we can be fairly certain that royal estates are full of gifts from around the world given to the monarchy by far traveling nobility that would probably be considered looted by todays overblown standards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
