I'd like to state on record that I thoroughly resent the 53p that the queen costs me personally each year.

You should demand she comes round your house and personally thanks you for your contribution.

She could send a stamp with an IOU for 7p

i like the queen
and i think the royal family generates income and employment and tourism etc. but andrew should be forced to live on a council estate on £25 a week for the rest of his life, the useless arrogant waste of space.

Do you think we couldn't generate similar income, employment and tourism without them?

I'm suggesting we could find a cheaper caretaker for those palaces for a start.

i'd like to see the stats done properly as to whether they contribute or take
eg i read that people paying to see kate middleton's wedding dress recouped a huge part of the costs for the royal wedding. is this true or is it bollocks?

I wouldn't
I'd just hand all their assets over to the National Trust or English Heritage and let them turn it into better profit.

What we should do is privatise them.
They're overstaffed and have too many wasters and underused facilities.

( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 1 Jul 2013, 10:25, Reply)

I resent the many pounds I spend a year propping up fat wasters on the dole
I resent the many pounds I spend a year fuelling governmental bureaucracy
I resent the many pounds a year I spend on pointless unwinnable wars
I resent the many pounds I spend a year helping to service our "debt mountain"
etc etc

I do not resent 53p for the queen.
