I’m pretty sure that national leaders don’t normally visit countries unless they are extended diplomatic immunity, so probably not.
EDIT: Hmm. Though…this says that it was abolished as a crime in England and Wales four years ago. There’s still the tort, but the way The Mirror described it, he was “fined”, and I think that you only get fined in criminal law, not civil law (in civil law, the analog would be called paying punitive damages, at least here in the US).
Definitely not illegal any more given the number of downright exploitive HMOs in British cities!
