I don't agree with how many are paid by the civil list but agree they are an asset. The queen is an amazing lady and leads by example, can't see much wrong with that

Yes. Not all of them but quite a few and in a variety of situations.

The first thing you realise is that there's a 'them' and 'everyone else'.

They're entirely at ease amongst those they consider to be part of their 'set' but, as recent attempts at widening the gene pool have shown, outsiders (Diana Spencer, Sarah Ferguson) don't last very long.

Job done. Thanks and so long.

You know this is one of the few topics that people's comments make me want to slap them. I can not understand not having respect for our royal family and find some of the comments utterly disgusting.

It's part of being British And the queen is still an amazing lady who has to be fair earned respect. Some people should keep ashamed of themselves

She has a perma frown. She looks bored with what she does, how she behaved at the Olympic opening ceremony showed that. Her ideals are stuck in the Victorian age, the same as her dad.

Sooner support another royal who will no doubt work tirelessly throughout their life for their country and have their privacy majorly compromised. I wouldn't do their job, would you? You could kiss goodby to your days on fab for a start.

No it's the piss takers who have never worked a day and earn more than a lot of us in benefits who you should aim your venom at.

There are stats that prove they are an asset to the country, and others that prove they aren't..take your choice.

What is amazing though that in a modern, supposedly, meritocratic society many feel the need to bow, genuflect, and consider ourselves 'subjects' to the head of a family who have no claim to this idolatry other than they were born in to it. Oh well, if they like it..

It'd be real circular flow of income.

Licence fee money is used to pay Sugar, his geriatric sidekicks and thon lassie wi' the big tits who used to work for porn baron David Sullivan.

They get together some prize money which the winner uses to develop a business which sends people to NHS hospitals to fix the damage she's done, whilst the Queen uses public money to fund a £5,000 a day hospital room for her daughter in law.

I totally get the point about living in a modern society where some traditions and conventions can seem outdated..

But I like to think if I wanted to show my respect to tradition and convention by bowing to someone, it would because I want too rather then feeling I need too and by living in a country whose freedoms allows me the choice I’m just grateful to have the privilege of choice ...

Yeah I’m still smiling at the folly of trying to punctuate an argument by suggesting books and internet sourced information hold more validity than the information given out by international news organisations who have vested interest in maintaining their own reputation by being as accurate as the can with the news they report,

Unlike individuals hoping to sell lots of books or publish their own personal views and opinions on the internet…

Even though they are German lol

I'm sure we've all had a bit of German in us at one time or another. God knows I tried years back

Don't know if I've got any German in me, but I get into a German quite regularly

Strange you should mention that,,,, because just the other day I was standing in queue waiting to buy some custard creams and I could have sworn I heard someone whisper in a hushed voice that Prince Charlie often sleeps with his head wrapped in tin foil hoping to stop the mother-ship from his home planet monitoring his dreams at night..

No, I pay taxes and national insurance (you do realise why national insurance is paid?), but how can you think that a birth right is ok in 2013. What would you do at work if your boss discriminated against you in this way, would you not prefer to work in a meritocracy, where every one is judged on their ability rather than who their parents are?

Why not let a baby born on this day be third in line to the throne and all the benefits that will give them. Is that not a good idea?

I'm sure I read somewhere that when you break it down it means we pay 65p each a year to keep the royals but they give all the money they 'earn' back to the country which is millions more than what they cost. If they didn't do this our taxes would be higher. Ill try and find the info x

if you really think that's all they do then go and relearn something today.

I for one am proud to be a royalist and have brought my children up the same. We go to changing of the guards, we always send cards etc on birthdays to the queen.. and my daughter on hearing the news this morning is going to use her free art time at school today to make the royal baby a card.

They do far more good for this country than many that get paid far more.. and with far more restrictions.

you only have to look at how many people attended for the recent celebrations to realise that it's a big part of our country and something to be proud of...

The tea parties across the land.. the celebrations that joined community's. How can that ever be a bad thing. The queen is such an amazing stateswoman... She has stood the test of time.. seen so much change yet even now manages to amuse with little jokes.. she still works more than many of us will In our sixties...

She is a devoted mother to her family but her country comes first.

It's not just visiting the palaces though is it? I've spoken to loads of Americans and Canadians on while I was away on holiday a while back and they have been to the the uk on holiday and loved the changing of the guard etc. they love the fact that the royal family are still here. It's real.

I don't give a monkeys about the royal family tbh but I do understand what they do for the country and its tourism.

Do you have the number of people who were invited to her garden party and the total population of england, scotland, wales and northern ireland as well as the people in her common wealthy (its an unusal term common wealthy because its something all the coutries she is head of state don't have)

"There are stats that prove they are an asset to the country, and others that prove they aren't..take your choice.

"
Funny that, so how do you treat your boss at work? Or a Policeman who stops your car? or a doctor treating an illness? there are times in life when we all have a "superior"

So tell me when did you personally have to bow or genuflect to the queen? like the situations above only people who want something she can give have to do that.

As for a dodgy family history, well we probably all have them if the truth were known, just ours has not been publicly documented.

Long live the Queen, royalist through and through here.

Remember elected heads of state cost considerably more and yield such gems as George W Bush

so are you saying they come all this way just to see the monarch?

the guard changes every day, even when the queen is not in there. the visitors should have asked for the money back for their long trip if the queen was at one of her council houses.

Yes I am familiar with the historical lineage of the present royal family

As for suggesting I should read read and read some more..... I did ask you to reference your direct source but for some reason you chose to ignore my request….

As it happens I’m not an completely unread person myself and don’t assume that other people aren’t either just because they dont share my views or opinions..

So yeah I’m still gonna smile away at the attempt to punctuate an argument by suggesting random books and internet sourced information holds more validity than the information given out by international news organisations who have vested interest in maintaining their own reputation by being as accurate as the can with the news they report,

However, for the title of the thread, it is blatantly untrue. Our Monarchy has brought in untold millions, or possibly billions, to the UK treasury.

So yes, I'm proud to have a monarchy that's soo rich in history.

Would you agree the word sycophant is a none complimentary term applied attempting cast a negative view of a persons attitude or behaviour..

Therefore is it a thinly disguised insult? or not?

"Well...

I support the Monarchy 100%. If and when the Monarchy becomes something that is against the people, then I will change tune.

However, for the title of the thread, it is blatantly untrue. Our Monarchy has brought in untold millions, or possibly billions, to the UK treasury.

So yes, I'm proud to have a monarchy that's soo rich in history.

Brought millions or billons into the treasury. How long do you think they have been paying taxes to the treasury?

Sorry... but I'll ask you to find out how much it has brought in, and then feel free to tell me how much it has taken out

you stated 'millions or billions' not me, so i assumed you had the figures to back it up but i guess you can't"

I do have figures, and I'm usually tried of repeating myself over and over... because people like yourself ignore it or couldn't care less. That is why I asked you to look.

Anyway, I'll say one little thing; The Queen has stated before that the Palace is in essential needs of repair but held it off for quite a while due to the economic circumstances. That repair bill was over £15m (last I remember). Obviously the house of lords upgrades loo's for £100k and now the houses of parliament that likely be in excess of £1 billion.

The Monarchy gets over £30m thereabouts, up and down figure. However, the Monarch's estates income (which goes to the Treasury) brings annually, £200+ million.

I know its not a big deal, but Prince Charles may not have to pay tax but he elects too, which adds up to around £4m year... more than Amazon, Starbucks and other tax dodging companies over the years.

Describing someone as a sycophant is only an insult if it isn't accurate.
