    The Royal Family are just a burden on the tax payer.

    They only cost us 63p or something a year now compare that to the tourism they bring I'd say keep them and stop whinging.

    thats the worst argument ever to justify that shower of ****e

    who gets to see the royals when visiting?

    they come to see the palaces etc and they belong to us the tax payer not those german twats

    technically WE bring in the tourists

    the houses and castles and palaces wouldnt be famous without the royal family living in them. the royal familys crown estates makes britain circa £200million profit each year.

    The combined 63p from every taxpayer would be better spent on public services that actually make a difference like health and social care or education or roads maintenance etc

    i can think of loads of things to put 63p towards

    if all on here put 63p in we could get you put down

    for example

    Why do people moan about the Royal family?
    They cost us practically **** all, bring in loads of tourists and raise our profile as a nation around the world like nobody else can, if you feel you need to whinge about people who do actually **** up our great nation, try bankers, politicians, greedy cheating sportsmen, drug dealers, people traffickers, work shy scroungers, terrorists, religious zealots and vegans.

    Yes they would because they would still have hundreds of years of history in them. That is more interesting than a family of benefit scroungers which is what they basically are.

    We have Royal Palaces in Edinburgh and no royals in them and they attract thousands of visitors. The whole thing about the Royals is a myth. The people come to see the buildings, the gardens and the history, not in the million to one chance they might glimpse a royal.

    no, but would buckingham palace be as famous without someone world famous living in it? NO. these houses are historical. EXAMPLE, how many people go to osborne house on the isle of wight because it is where queen victoria lived?thousands, think theyd go if she hadnt lived there???? no, itd just be another house.

    the royal family makes us a profit, cant understand what you're moaning about. you'd moan even more if the queen took the crown estates back. <doh>
