God Save The Queen

No Future ....

[ChillDoubt]

The country and London in particular would lose massive revenue and thousands lose jobs and livelihood without a Royal Family.

They’ll be around for some time to come.....

[hereIam]

I agree with Chill.

//The country and London in particular would lose massive revenue and thousands lose jobs and livelihood without a Royal Family//
Any stats for that claim?

[JimF]

Utter nonsense! Do a Google for the top 20 most visited tourist sites in Europe - not one has anything to do with royalty!

[Bobbisox1]

And stats against it Nailit ?

[douglas9401]

A vocal majority, mostly brexiteers, will be along to bluster shortly.

[nailit]

//And stats against it Nailit ?//
Yes, why not?
Would just like to know where (or how) these figures are arrived at?

[sunny-dave]

We have ex-servicemen sleeping in doorways, whilst the Heir to the Throne has a footman to exactly squeeze his toothpaste onto the brush ...

Nothing in specific numbers but you just have to see the crowds of tourists outside Buckingham Palace on any day of the week. They must be spending money on hotels and food.

This is for the end of 2017.

[JimF]

They'd still come whether there was a monarchy or not, in exactly the same way that they flock to Versailles.

[ummmm]

Dave - do you really believe that he has someone to squeeze his toothpaste out?

[emmie]

they will be around a lot longer than any of us.

[nailit]

Quiet why people worship multi-millionaires with a privileged lifestyle is beyond me in the same way that people worship some divine being that cannot be proved to exist.
Both are a fantasy, and both display a desire to be controlled.

[-SharonA-]

I think we'd make more money if the Queen steps down. Just think, opening Buck Palace fully along with Balmoral etc to the public.
Queenie woz here!

[Cloverjo]

I don’t believe the inch of toothpaste, and anyway should we really take any notice of what Paul Burrell has to say about anything?

[TonyV]

So nailit Royal family do not exist then according to you? And neither do any of us either?

[Cloverjo]

If we’re to believe all the stories I’d rather be the flunkie who irons shoelaces and squeezes toothpaste than the one who’s told to F- O every morning when he opens Andrew’s curtains.

[nailit]

//should we really take any notice of what Paul Burrell has to say about anything?//
Why wouldnt you?
Doesnt it agree with your own perception?

*YAWN*
Delibritaly missing the point!
