The most terrible thing about the monarchy is that they directly profit when soldiers die without a will, as the royal family receives their money. The royals directly profited from the deaths of young men during D-Day, Le Somme and other huge battles. In the king's name, young men were drafted into his army, forced to swear an oath to the king, then shipped out to a foreign country, many of which died horrible deaths, only for their money to then be sent to the king. That does not sit right with me, and the fact it still happens today is sickening.

[@Jonny-uu7wf]

No problem! It's truly awful, and whilst the practice has been taking place for several centuries, I believe it became an official law in the mid 1920s. I should clarify that the soldier needs to have no will and have no immediate family for the monarch to inherit their wealth.

Homelessness can be solved at a stroke. Johnson showed this at the start of the pandemic.

[@LdevArt]

time to go! 1. The royals cost a lot more than publicly declared, at least £510m a year. 2. The true cost includes the sovereign grant, which itself is set to rise by £45m a year. 3. The cost includes lost revenues from the Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster, which the record shows are state assets at the disposal of parliament, not the private property of the Windsor family. 4. The Sovereign Grant is funded wholly by the government, not the Crown Estate. The Crown Estate is a state asset, created in 1960 to manage some Crown (state) lands, but it’s only been since 2011 that it has been used as a smokescreen for royal expenditure, by artificially linking the grant to Crown Estate profits. 5. The huge and growing cost of the royals is primarily due to personal and private costs, such as an excessive number of homes, avoidance of large tax bills and private incomes being drawn from the duchies. 6. Using or abusing public office for private gain is a form of corruption, and this corruption is why the monarchy costs so much. Secrecy, dishonesty and deference all feed a culture of impunity and entitlement. 7. Comparable heads of state cost as little as £5m a year, excluding security. 8. There is no evidence to support claims of an economic benefit from having the monarchy. 9. The cost of the monarchy should and could be slashed to just £5-10m a year, while these revelations should help fuel a debate about abolition of the monarchy in favour of a democratic and accountable alternative. Reform and abolish Republic is calling for short-term royal funding reforms with a view to a longer-term debate on abolition. Those reforms include: 1. Scrap the Sovereign Grant. 2. Provide a budget of £5-10m a year, to provide an office and staff for the head of state. 3. Provide a salary for Charles of £189,000 and peg any increases to that of the prime minister. This figure is 110% of the prime minister’s salary. 4. Roll all Duchy assets into the Crown Estate and rename the estate the National Estate, changing the law to make public ownership explicit. 5. Limit Charles to two homes that the state will provide security and staff for, one in central London and one in the countryside. This will bring the head of state into line with the prime minister. 6. Scrap all provision of homes or funding for all other members of the royal family. Ensure all royals have the same tax obligations as everyone else. 7. End all royal exemptions from the Freedom of Information Act and include the royal household and the royal archives in the scope of the Act in relation to official communications, documents and records. 8. Hold an honest and public inquiry into royal finances and spending, one which has full access to all records going back as far as necessary. 9. Take royal financial reporting out of the hands of the palace and ensure comparisons with similar heads of state are included in any reports. These reforms are proposed with a longer-term view of achieving the abolition of the monarchy in favour of a democratic alternative. Only by having an accountable head of state can we put an end to this abuse of public money. Summary of the annual cost of the royals £m Expenditure from Sovereign Grant and Surplus 108.9 State buildings used by royal family 96.3 Duchy of Cornwall profits/gains - lost 65.3 Duchy of Lancaster profits/gains - lost 33.8 Royal Collection net surplus - lost 11.8 Cost to local councils 31.9 Security 150.0 Costs met by Government Departments and the Crown Estate 7.5 Bona vacantia proceeds - Duchy of Cornwall 0.1 Bona vacantia proceeds - Duchy of Lancaster 4.8 Total cost 510.4 million pounds a year

Shame on the Royals. Hopefully the younger generations are not star struck by these hypocrites and finally get rid of them!

[@Fordnan]

Even amongst the under-45s, supporters of the monarchy are a small fraction of the population. All these polls are phrased to ensure a positive outcome for the status quo, e.g. 'Do you think the king is doing a good job?' - it's not a question about whether the monarchy is justifiable or not.

The fact that they even charge the RNLI to rent a lifeboat launch hut is a disgrace. The RNLI is a charity that people make donations to.

So you don't. Thanks for clarifying that.😊

[@janwhite6038]

I no longer donate to RNLI.

[@robertdavidson8028]

Personally I think that the RNLI should become a non R affiliated body, and that boat owners of all sorts should be charged a yearly insurance rate; and I would like it to include corporations, to indemnify them and cover them for assistance that they might require should tankers and the like, be involved in being rescued, spills of toxic waste etc., were that feasible.

More important than collecting Tax from these leeches, would be to stop the enormous ammounts of money they take out of the exchequer. And I'm not talking about the civil list, which is paltry by comparison to the obscene ammounts they garner from revenues on coastal, riverside and mining rights.

An interesting examination of the acquisition of wealth by the royal family. Many of us believe this wealth belongs rightly to the people, and ought to be returned to the national coffers, and those with royal titles reduced to penury.
