FCO advice: Rewarding terrorism
The system of FCO "advice" to travel, or not, to specific destinations places a powerful lever in the hands of every murderous terror organisation. A relatively simple, low-cost operation in Tunisia has been rewarded by granting their wishes in entirety and deprived their enemies, the Tunisian govt of most of their income. Job done! The issue is, this "advice" in not advice at all; for a holiday company it is a legal imperative. While I can't blame any civil servant for being risk-averse, we must examine this system. It provides a warped incentive to murder British citizens and will increase our risk while abroad.
