Former Head of Protection for the Royal Family, Dai Davies, says Prince Harry forfeited his royal protection when he ceased to be a working royal.
Speaking to GB News, Davies told hosts Andrew Pierce and Bev Turner that Britain is a "safe country", as the Duke of Sussex continues his court battle for British protect rights.
Davies revealed: "The truth is, he actually gets protection, as you rightly say, every time, anything to do with Royals, and he's here as a Prince of the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland, never forget Northern Ireland, yes, of course he gets it. And he has.
"The problem is this is all hyped up, it's yet another Harry storm in a teacup. He thinks he should because he is sixth in line to the throne. But the committee that decides this, included a former colleague of mine, Commander Peter Loughborough, Lord Peter, as he is now, and he had 11 years as the commander in overall command of royalty protection.
"He was on that committee, as I understand it, along with a member of the household, eminently sensible men. They are provided with the up to date intelligence and it's from that intelligence and the threat risk that is carried out. But they will decide whether anyone, including Harry, including other members of the Royal family, will actually get protection.
"What he wants is arms protection when he comes here and has done over a number of years. He brings his own protection teams who are not armed, but a number of them are former royalty protection officers. If there's a threat, if there's a any kind of issue, he will be afforded the protection he wants. This is a storm in the cup and it's going to cost you and I about £1,000,000."
