England & the UK

How about a forum dedictaed to the UK. There are so many questiond regarding the UK and it might be a swifter place for questions and answers.
Any support?

This is brought up by someone every few months. The concensus is -- nope. Too many multi-country trips etc.

They have this sort of campaign every so often over on the United States forum, wanting separate State forums - especially for Alaska and Hawaii -- same concensus . . . .

For most English-speakers outside Europe, we're the gateway to the rest of Europe. Heathrow alone gets more passengers from America than CDG, FRA and AMS put together, and we're overwhelmingly the preferred European entry point for Canadians, Indians, Ozzies, Kiwis and Hong Kongers. Not to mention Singaporeans, Malaysians, Nigerians...

When it comes to travel, you just can't separate us from the unfortunates on the other side of the Channel. However attractive the idea might be in so many other spheres.

What is needed is a more effective and more comprehensive way of flagging the posts, so they would still be in the same forum, but you could sort out just the UK ones, just the Irish ones, just the Italian or Croatian ones, etc. with a click.

In theory you can, by using the search function, but it depends on the OP choosing a country at the outset.

Ages ago I suggested to Fodors they should add to the post title the search term posters select, so that you could see at once if someone was writing about Italy or Poland or whatever.
