That’s right yes, after we pay for his fucking hat day he gets a pay rise while we get a cost of living crisis and strikes across the board to get a few pennies.

Fuck the Royal family, take it all off them in my view, don’t let them keep a penny it’s all stolen. They can work in fucking Aldi like normal people.

      Oh but the tourism!

      This is the Britain we all dream of… isolated and desperate, wheeling out archaic practices and dressing in silly hats in the hope that foreigners might think it all hilarious enough to throw us a few coins.

      Long long ago, some dead people got other dead people to kill people who are now dead. Obviously, This means this man gets a bunch of cash and owns a bunch of stuff.

        All royalty are just the descendants of criminals really, who murdered and thieves their way to the top.

      Also note that the civil service / government departments and arms length bodies (like Kew Gardens, British Library, British Museum, Research Councils, met office, etc) do not have independent pay review bodies and bargin individually for thier pay, has not been mentioned in this. Given this government it is highly likely that it will not, and the civil service will still be at 2009 pay for alot more work. We have not forgotten the being essential for covid ansld then trying to sack 20% of us while cutting severance packages (currently resolved by recent strike action).

    Is this the Tories giving the King a raise before they get swept out of power?
