Whether you want a Monarchy or not the facts are they generate a tad under £500,000,000 pa from tourism and spin off businesses and the Crown Estates (all profits go to the Treasury. Yet the Monarchy only costs each UK resident 69 pence or £1.33 per taxpayer, so some £36,000,000. Seems to me that it would be foolish to even think about abolishing the Monarchy - if only for financial reasons. |
