A THING OF THE PAST Governor's Uniform In Anguilla

Alan Huckle, the next Governor appointed for Anguilla will not be wearing the traditional uniform on ceremonial occasions. The gleaming white attire, complete with sword, helmet and plume of swan feathers among other regalia, is now a thing of the past. The British Government has no interest in the pomp and circumstance surrounding the colonial outfit and has not been paying the cost for the dress. That cost, probably in the region of three thousand pounds, has been left for the Governments of the Overseas Territories or the Governors themselves to pay.
