The most useless information I’ve ever read.
The monarchy work hard to produce this image of relevance. It’s not real. They’re just celebrities.
During this pandemic they’ve been milking the UK taxpayer $70M/yr

The Crown Estate (which King George gave up in exchange for the yearly Civil List/Sovereign Grant payment) generates over £2bn revenue each year with over £300m profit.
The Royal Family also brings billions of pounds of tourist revenue to the country each year (granted it wasn't so much in 2020).
Whatever you think of the institution or the individuals, The Royals are a gigantic net positive for the UK cash pot.

I think they have no business taking tax from the people to renovate their many luxurious lavish homes. 70 million pounds buys a whole lot of vaccine. There’s a body count to this action. Could they be any more corrupt? I also think prince Andrew is a pedophile and needs to be held accountable for his actions in a court of law that doesn’t see him as special or magic or born noble or whatever the royal family are supposed to be. And I think you can’t have a Democracy with a monarchy.
"...manage unprecedented crowds and travel chaos that could see, in the words of one official memo, London become “full” for the first time ever."
This is so depressing.
This is so depressing.
God save the Queen because you just wait until Charlie and his Great Reset comes along. Pure evil
The monarchy should die off along with Liz: "No more Liz, no more Royal Family."
I agree.
And in the USA, there are so many completely useless things that should be abolished. For example, all sports teams, television, Facebook, Google, junk food, tobacco, alcohol. The list is endless.
All are useless. All take a toll and are detrimental to our civilization. Some of them are very expensive indeed.
The list is endless.
