Yesterday news:  Prince Harry and his wife improved their property by using 2.4 million pounds from our tax. I want to know how others feel about this matter, when the UK has no money for the homeless and for some families stuck in poverty by getting food from food bank. Luna34

For me! Money well paid. The royalty here & in your UK bring more in than you bring out...... Now bring it on....... May be a goof (sorry) good line. Villas.

Can't say. Will look up. But I do know the bit pesetas going out is not worrying about money paid by speculators every minute each day. V

Luna does have a fair point, but there are two choices to make

Choice 1. Do you want to retain The Royal Family within our Constitution ?

Choice 2. Do you want to abolish the Royal Family from our Constitution ?

Apparently, at this point in time,surveys favour choice No 1. Therefore they have to have the money to function in the way they do..

To throw another figure into the mix, Buck Palace is having 370 million quid spent on it over a 10 year period of refurbishment.

Very points. to quote the post ,

1,"The Royal Family within our Constitution ?" (ie as an European, as me with no rights politically void).

2."Do you want to abolish your  Royal Family from your Constitution ?" in Spain?. NO!. in UK a Constitution does not exist.

3. Apparently, at this point in time,surveys favour choice No 1. Therefore they have to have the money to function in the way they do..

 OK ....370,000m is peanuts, (less than a red bus in one year!

Don Quijotes families eat more  (nearly said mare!) than that a month.

& You in you & Iceland KFC combined! My friend!

Villas, you got me on the Constitution 

Add Codified and flexible !

Flexible like the card I use to pay to fill my trolley at Iceland and settle my tab at KFC.  Maybe I will see Harry and Meghan there ?

What bus will I get to travel there on, oh I know, it's the Red one ! 

Shades of Paul McCartney & Wings come to mind,  Banned on the run,

Simplistic thinking like that never solves anything.
