The only people who are really entitled to complain are the people paying 40% income tax and above. 

 

Everyone else are technically leeching.

more leeching on taxpayers from the minor royals, i would love to have 10% of that to re-furbish our house.

when are the royals going to join the real world.

Must admit it took longer than I expected for the typical anti-royal backlash to turn up!!

As a matter of interest, how much each is that when spread out amongst the taxpayers?

Isn't the entire thread and the BBC article designed specifically with anti-royal complaints in mind?  Perhaps rightly so, perhaps not...

At least there is something to show for the 2.4 mill.  The visit of the orange idiot cost at least 4 times that and all we have to show for it is a bad smell

Simple and obvious answer,  Cyclone, is yes - typical BBC royaly-bashing. I've come to expect nothing less.

Something to show, in that they had a house refurbed?  They could refurb all our houses and have something to show for it by that logic...

They could do maybe 20 private homes and there'd be something to show...  My point being that "something to show" that is then enjoyed privately isn't really a justification for public money to be spent is it.

Well I guess that's a perk of being part of the Royal family?

 

Like others have said, we've spent far more on far less.
