Redirect URL is invalide, tired of changing that, all I wanted was to redirect https://www.google.com to https://www.google.co.uk, I Have to take some parameter though I want none, It forces me to have redirect url like 'https://www.google.com.hk/search?q={kwd}' although I do not want it like that. I Do not need any 'kwd' variable
