@RichardElden: Ok, so why did George V. withdraw the offer when his own government initially did offer asylum?? Was it inconvenient to receive the (ex)-Tsar Nicholas II. at that time??
Nice video alongside a very british song! King George V. looks like a twin brother of Tsar Nicholas II. of Russia; in the end they were cousins.........It's a pity that the British Government did not do more to save their WWI ally Nicholas II.; it could have arranged matters to send the Romanovs to Canada or Australia until WWI was finished and then grant them asylum in the UK!!
