Looks like British tourists aren’t allowed to visit the White House anymore.
Donald Trump had only just announced that the tours would now officially resume, and even crashed the first organised tour for a photo-op.

Visitors from outside the US will now need to apply for places on White House tours – by writing to their respective embassies for assistance.

‘The White House website states that foreign nationals interested in touring the White House should contact their Embassy to arrange a tour,’ the embassy wrote on its website.
‘However, the Embassy has been advised by the US Department of State that this is on hold.
