VisitBritain closes London Visitor Centre

With VisitBritain closing their London Visitor Center in Lower Regent Street it ends any physical place for tourists to go for information in central London.

It just leaves the City Of London centre by St Paul's Cathedral, run by the City of London Corporation.

Also to close are 13 offices in places like New Zealand - a traditional place for thousands of visitors to the UK.

Yet Visit Britain are happy to redesign the VisitBritain website and EnjoyEngland website, spending millions of pounds in public funding .

No guys, the foreign visitor to the UK needs somewhere to pop-in and ask, your websites don't even appear on Google searches, so you have to spend more public funds on paying for Google adverts.

Why not just give some public funds to sites like http://www.touruk.co.uk/ who have better search engine presence than you at a cost of ZERO to public funds.
