Quite - what was the wording on the passport? HRH 'demands' something of
foreigners? No wonder our Brexiteers thought 'getting back' sovereignty
would go ever so well. ;-)


At one time a anyone could go anywhere in the world without any
documentation.


Yeah, those stupid vikings couldnt even read or write.

The first British passports were issued by the King to warn foreigners
that if they interfered with his subjects he would send a gunboat to sort
them out.


Didnt work with Cook, they killed him and
ate him and no gunboat ever showed up.
