Funeral cost a staggering £161. 7 million. The Home office, sorry the 'Dick Turpin' tax orifice
stumped up 70% whilst the Jocks & Taff's split the rest.
But, but, but... They're getting refunded.

I now want to be recognised as a 'JoTa' so I can be reimbursed.

Overall I would think more money came into UK PLC than went out. Whatever anyone’s views on the monarchy are it is a great tourist attraction (a very very very good thing) and generates TV income globally.

The money comes into the economy and circulates which is a benefit for everyone.

Jobs.

Tax revenue.

If you want to be at the top of the food chain open a hotel or restaurant.

You got your happy pants on today?

You may have noticed there is a war going on just up the road and an associated energy crisis. Two years plus of economic chaos due to covid.

My advice is to hibernate for the next five years and see if it is any better then.

Not happy pants, concerned pants.
The state of this world has no room for a trinket disfunctional head of state.
Money could be allocated elsewhere.

We are not a GBE anymore.
It's an opulant piss take that we don't need or want.

You can gather I'm not a Royalist.
