62p a year per person to keep the Royals.

Amazing that they have millions of our cash in their private accounts, and shit loads of land and buildings for 62p a year!

Don't shoot the messenger. I would guess having them brings in loads more than 62p a headin tourism. (About 35 million).

And I'm also quite sure that this weekend has been paid for privately - including police costs.

I will stand to be corrected on that but I'm sure I heard that in the early hours on Radio 4 the other day.

So if we didn't have them, we could afford more taxes to improve the country & it would only cost 62p a year? Bonus.

Not really - the taxes raised by tourists who visit because we are a Royalist nation would disappear leaving us worse off.

Thank you for your interest.

Ah the Guardian.

No agenda there.

no, thank you. As I said, I have nothing against them, as long as they pay for themselves.

Absolute bargain - imagine how much the public has spent this weekend. Would have raised milliions on VAT alone.

Post by **Knots & crosses** » Tue Jun 05, 2012 10:35 pm

But is it money they can afford?

That's a different argument though, for another day.
