Thanks. That bugs me so much. And yes I did continue reading and know it was a mistake.Zimmer wrote:

I really could care less about the Monarchy, although I do want to know how much money they bring in through Tourism etc.. but, I'd imagine that would be hard to work out

As for the Queen. You never hear about her really. It's as if she didn't exist.
But apparently she's a very good person and she gives heaps to charities all the time.
Apparently.

aww poor thing with only 600 mil
Come to Vienna, dude. We got a shit ton of 'em, too. It's not just London ...FatherTed wrote:

It's a nice bit of tradition i say, and she fucking rakes in money for this country.
My mums got an office down in Whitehall, so i go to the changing of the guard sometimes, or just a general walk around London - you should see the amount of tourists from all over the world there, day in day out.
So the Queen would have to cut back on all the traveling and other stuff that she does to save money to fix her house. Big deal?
Frankly, though, as a historical piece of culture and whatnot, I think the palace (regardless of how ugly the outside is) should be saved. Not to help her, but to preserve a bit of history.

I feel sooooo bad for her. Only $600 million? I'll try and get by on my $40k/year I make now.
I'm not against the queen at all...the work she did in the past proves that she actually did something representing Britain traveling around the whole world which can, understandably, be very stressful..Zimmer wrote:

She is also part of history notably what she did during WWII and how she helped improve British morale while they were getting bombed this shit outta them during the Blitz..
The rest of the royal family are a bunch of pencil pushing twats who use the tax payers money to party like rockstars...
didnt she kill princess diana?
Blow the palace up. There, that will get them to stfu about expenses.
Honestly though, wtf is the point in them. I hear tourism as a good reason to keep them. Aye, because anyone planning a weekend in london to see the palace (assuming I fail in blowing it up) is REALLY going to cancle that plan because some old cow isnt living there anymore. Get them to fuck.
