After a tumultuous debate over whether visitors would be kicked out of its holiday parks, Center Parcs has thanked guests for 'assisting us create the unique opportunity' for employees to have the day off for the Queen's funeral.

Anyone residing in the village was also encouraged to walk or bike around the village or leave the village to explore the local area if you so desired to do so,' according to the note. 'Thank you so much for assisting us in bringing the rare opportunity for our team to be part of this historic event,' a narrator told guests in the note sent to lodges yesterday.' 'Thank you for the letter sent to our lodge this morning,' visitor David Tomlinson from Solihull expressed it on Twitter yesterday.' I believe the thank you for 'assisting us in creating the unique opportunity' is meant to be sarcasm, because if not for the media backlash, you'd still be awaiting us to leave the park for one day. You haven't said sorry in the original emails and social media messages, but I did notice that unlike in the initial emails and social media messages. After the stress you put so many of your customers through, is that really so much to ask?' Others posted memes claiming that snipers were looking out for anyone attempting to evacuate their lodges, and that people were tied in a cage or trying to escape. It comes amid rumors that the holiday park operator is compelled to open on the day of the Queen's funeral, which has resulted in allegations that it was compelled guests to remain in lodges in a 'hostile situation.'
