The Guardian Newspaper States The Royal Family Has "Lost Its Grip"

January 2. 2020

The Queen and Prince Andrew

The royal family is angry with Prince Andrew, as his ties to the late businessman and pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, has brought scandal on the clan and is threatening their position with the British public. Serious allegations have surfaced stating Prince Andrew has been having sex with underage girls for the past two decades, in debauched acts introduced to him by Epstein.

Prince Andrew was introduced to Epstein by socialite, Ghislaine Maxwell, who procured underage girls for them and other rich and famous people in their circle, as instructed by Epstein. Their is now an active criminal investigation into their behavior, which continues, despite the fact Epstein allegedly committed suicide, with many stating he was murdered (Jeffrey Epstein’s Lawyer States He Was Killed In Jail).

The Prince Andrew scandal, among several others regarding the royals this year, has angered the British people, who are publicly complaining on social networking about footing the sizeable cost of the royal family, via their hard earned tax dollars. The royal family receives $100,000,000 annually from taxpayer money.

Yahoo News stated, "Britain's Queen Elizabeth II has called the year 'bumpy' and many Britons are again questioning the cost of the monarchy." First in line to the throne, Prince Charles, who desperately wants to be king, has floated the idea of narrowing the royal family down to his immediate family.

Currently, royals such as Princess Michael of Kent, a literal Nazi who is married to the Queen's cousin, are costing the taxpayers large sums of money  living in luxury at palaces, while spreading ill will in Britain and America, among other places (Princess Michael Of Kent Causes Outrage In Wearing Racist Slave Broach To Queen's Lunch Held To Meet Prince Harry's Black Fiancée Meghan Markle).

Yahoo News reported, "One of the common complaints about the monarchy is the cost to the taxpayer. There is a perception that many members of the family are free-loaders who don't do much work." The royals cut ribbons, break champagne bottles and wave at people. It's not strenuous or physically taxing. Royals don't even dress themselves, tie their own shoelaces or put toothpaste on their toothbrushes. They have staff doing that and much more for them.

The British taxpayers should not be paying $100,000,000 per year to support roughly 50 royals, many of whom have no financial value to the economy. To say the entire clan are working for the taxpayers and serving their nation is preposterous. The royal family did not even make the list of the top 50 British tourist attractions.

Gone are the days when the late Princess Diana made a fortune for Britain in tourism, merchandising, television ads and newspaper sales. Princess Diana generated billions for Britain. Currently, her sons and their wives, who are the top draw in the royal family, are making money for Britain, but it is still nowhere near what she brought in.

While I understand the Queen has ceremonial duties to perform, she still lives in absolute luxury, has many residences (some of which she owns but should belong to the state) and is waited on hand and foot by a massive staff. She isn't exactly suffering being the Queen. It has many perks, as the British people have taken extraordinarily good care of their royals.

At a time when there is 14,000,000 Britons living in poverty (4 million of them children) and 225,000 homeless, $100,000,000 annually in royal expenditures is not appropriate. The poor need the money. For the royals to have gold pianos, gold crowns and gold toilets, while the poor don't have "a pot to piss in" is sad.

Cost of UK royals back in spotlight after Queen's year to forget

December 25, 2019 - Britain's Queen Elizabeth II has called the year "bumpy" and many Britons are again questioning the cost of the monarchy.  After a torrid 2019 in which the queen's son Prince Andrew was implicated in an underage sex abuse scandal, many in Britain are again asking if the monarchy has gotten too big -- and rich -- for its own good. The family's year to forget may encourage Prince Charles, set to eventually take over from his mother Queen Elizabeth II, 93, in his purported belief that the centuries-old institution needs reform, according to royal experts.

"He wants to slim it down to a hard core of senior family members who work full-time," said author Penny Junor, who has written several books on the royals including "The Firm" -- the nickname sometimes given to the family. "Andrew shooting himself in the foot has certainly made that an easier task," she told AFP.

The 59-year-old prince, dubbed the queen's "favourite son" by the UK press, has been dogged by allegations that he had sex with one of American convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein's victims. Andrew, who strenuously denies the accusations, gave a calamitous BBC interview last month in which he unsuccessfully tried to distance himself from the late US financier...
