Just to be clear the royal grant is a portion of the profits from the crown estates. That the gov earns about 350m a year. So the taxpayers this comes from is technically themselves.

G4Z,

No it’s not though because they don’t own the crown estates, the public own that and give them a portion of the earnings.

Everything they have comes from us, they didn’t earn any of it, it’s all just stolen wealth and unitaxed inheritance.

I’m all for the crown estate being treated as their private property, let’s then see a nice chunk of inheritance tax come off of that.

I’m all for taking it all fully back and not giving them a penny.

I guess the Bank of England doesn’t think this will exacerbate inflation.

Perhaps our train drivers and doctors should just retrain to be royalty instead.

The UK’s attitude to the monarchy is as tone deaf as ever.
