Before pointing the finger at the Duchies, try getting the taxes from all of the conglomerates that DO NOT even pay taxes to the United Kingdom! There are a lot of large companies that charge horrendous fees to the public and yet nothing is said. Leave the monarchy alone!
👏👏👏👏👏👏I think the monarchy itself is under a coordinated attack & this could be a strategy to divert attention from the austerity budget. The Royal Family is being made a scapegoat for public discontent & increasing poverty.
As someone whose brother and sister sponged off me ( though not to the sum of a million pounds) I’m with King Charles. Let them stand on their own two feet.
I see how proud you are of having paid millions,allowing Andrew to avoid going to court.I guess is because Virginia was not your daughter...YOU ARE A DISGRACE
Andrew is over 60 and was not brought up to be anything but a Prince. How would he stand on his own two feet, as you say? He was a successful career Navy officer and helicopter pilot who actually fought for queen and country--unlike all reports about H.
King Charles is a kind hearted man. Andrew must have inherited enough from both his parents that the King did not feel it was appropriate to continue subsidizing Andrew. Particularly if there could be any accusations of public monies being involved.
The love and respect in this little family shines out for all to see. It is reassuring to know that the children and Catherine have such a loving and supportive man at the helm helping them through this time. With all the worry he has had with so much illness striking the people he loves most, I can only wish him well, his mother and Grandparents must be so proud of him as I’m sure his father is.
I think we should all be proud of Prince William. He has had so many roles to play this year. Husband, father, son, son in law, and many more and yet he keeps on going. Truly carrying on his mother's legacy.
William has done nothing wrong either he is following his mother's footsteps in helping the less fortunate. A true humanitarian and a great future King 🤴

Yeap - I don't agree with Charlotte's assessment. It's rubbish! Without the VOLUNTARY taxes that the King and William paid, UK will be deeper in trouble. So far from what I see -- anything the government touch is often ineffective, overcost, and won't be surprise if those lands will be sold to greedy developers!!! I don't think UK people know how lucky they are to have a monarch that cares about their people.
The role of the King is to act as Head of State. William's is to prepare himself for the role of Head of State. Amplifying their extreme wealth is a secondary duty and one at which they excel. They have privileged arrangements for taxation eg Queen Elizabeth II will pay no capital gains tax on her estate. Meanwhile, for lowly citizens, pension funds will be included for the purpose of capital gains tax calculations from 2027 onwards.
Richard and Charlotte need to look things up before criticising William and the king’s finances. Jeez thought they were supposed to be reliable journalists.
Shame on you Richard!!! You did ansolutely no additional research on the Duchy's of Lancaster or Cornwall. The income from these properties goes back into huge programs helping the people, the communities and the countries.
They pay taxes on the income voluntarily and they don't have to. Richard is becoming, oh how to put it, acting like he knows more than he actually does and trying to stir up problems where there aren't.
@@cyncmoore Agree, I once enjoyed his contributions, but lately he is off the mark quite a bit. Rebecca is my favorite. She is at least fair and balanced.
Lovely episode, the less Harry and Meghan the better! I loved hearing about the Duchess of Gloucester as an unsung hero. I would love to hear more about what these lesser known royals are doing regularly. 😎
£11 million pounds is a drop in the bucket to what the NHS wastes on divercity, inclucivity and trans issues. Clean up the NHS and then lets talk about this cost . The monarchy are sitting targets for complaints mainly because no one is prepared to address the other institutions in the UK which are out of control and falling apart. .
£11 million pounds over a fifteen year period is what channel 4 did not add. They are complete liars. However, the Daily Mail knows this also, but then again, why let a little thing like the truth get in the way of their agenda.
What the heck is this "our role in life is to own a lot of things because I am the King and Prince of Wales" and "it never occurred to them that it isn't right to own a lot of things?" Those were rather demeaning remarks. It's been their right since the dawn of time to own land and they pay taxes and live off that income so why shouldn't their money managers handle the investments as they chose? Are they now supposed to have the general public vet all their personal investments?
Right! I think the monarchy itself is under a coordinated attack & this could be a strategy to divert attention from the austerity budget. The Royal Family is being made a scapegoat for public discontent & increasing poverty! That programme was a one-sided hatchet job, nothing more.
These haters on the PoW and K3 Duchies, are just taking us closer to what the New World Order is trying to make the Western world. They thrive on taking down our history and controlling our governments by placing their puppets into leadership roles. People need to stand up and take their countries back from these corrupt people.
Prince William and Princess Catherine look so wonderful. The children look happy and are growing up so fast! May all the angels in Heaven keep them in their sights and keep them healthy and safe.💕💕💕

In relation to the Duchy of Cornwall and Lancaster, it would be interesting to have more context to the story. Such as, how many staff are employed and paid, how many farms are supported, community initiatives, charities do the Duchy’s contribute back into? Do they pay tax? A quick search shows Prince William has chosen to pay tax on the Duchy’s surplus, and King Charles chooses to pay tax and capital gains on the Duchy of Lancaster. In relation to the NHS ambulances, how many ambulances are being parked on the property for 11.4 million over the 15 year contract? What would be the fair market value if NHS had negotiated a similar contract for a 15 year period with any other property owner? How would the numbers compare? Thinking critically about the headline would suggest there are more questions to be answered.

Does Charlotte have a fair formula for who shouldn't charge reasonable rent? I'm sorry, but a landlord charging rent is NOT unreasonable. Definitely not "lording" it over anyone, simply good business practice. And an important point, not only do PC3 and PW pay taxes, they pay at the very highest level.
I think attempting to shame the King and Prince of Wales for being landowners like anyone else is horrible. So because they are public figures they aren’t allowed to charge a market rate? If the NHS didn’t like the price they didn’t have to take the deal. And I’d bet they’re better landlords than most because they’re under such scrutiny. Maybe I’m too American to think this “is not a good look”. They own the land so they can do what they want with it.
I think that some media and republicans would prefer that the owners of the properties were Russians and Saudis... then they could charge the NHS whatever amounts they wanted! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As an American fan of the British Royal Family (with huge love and adoration for the lovely late Queen), I admire the British commitment and diligence of honoring and supporting armed forces with the crimson poppies.
@@jilliegirlieit’s a free country and people can say whatever they want to ! Some of the women in Congress have said far worse things than HRH Prince Harry has ever said !
@CavarriLewis everyone I know would love to visit beautiful Canadaand many has immigrated there. I've heard the people are warm and friendly. It's on my bucket list!
During WW II The UK parked the (embarrassing, pro-German ) Duke of Windsor as governor of Bermuda, islands in the Atlantic where he could be watched and couldn't do any harm except cause an epidemic of eye-rolling amongst the Bermudans. Burmuda could come in handy in the same context for the Sussexes. 😆
So tired of Richard Eden now. I feel I don’t really trust his outlook anymore. I think it would be wonderful to stop talking about Meghan and Harry. You just feed the story. I’m tired of them always being brought into comparisons with his family. I was delighted to watch the Earthshot event and look forward to you getting Rebecca back again.
I agree. Richard seems to have changed. He's no longer as genuine and much less likely to do proper research (as you can see by all the rubbish about royal property, land etc.). He used to be a real individual but now he goes along with general opinion.
Great job of getting a guest host to fill in for Jo!! Though I do miss Jo, she's the best this young lady did a great job. She actually let the panel speak and wasn't trying to take over the show!! Again great job! Love this show! Oh yes I'm an American and you definitely helped take my 73yr old mind off this election result!! Ugh!!
Here we go again. Mr. Eden can't stop granting Harry and Meghan Royal status. This time in Portugal. Yes, it's a joke, but it reinforces the damaging idea that Harry is a working Royal at large.
He shd be looking deeper into the Portugal fiasco......Did they buy a property? If so its been reported that the property mentioned has not even been built!
How generous of Harry not to reveal any more sordid details in the paperback version of "Spare." Isn't he top drawer for that! The truth is, he's milking that piece of drivel for all it's worth, and that's not much. I would never buy such trash, but I scanned over it at Barnes & Noble when it first came out and thought: "Now you've done it, you fool!" I hope Charles is beginning to listen to William and is beginning to see Harry for the traitor he is, and that he can never be trusted again. William will never let him back into the family. He may be able to come visit on holidays, but that's IT."
I have worshipped at the beautiful chapel at Windsor on several Sundays. Since August 2022, I have observed a lovely Royal Mummy with her shy oldest son and her only very confident daughter enjoying services there. I saw them several times. I think that woman was spiritually aware long before illness.
That black and white portrait of William at the end of the montage! It captures the maturity and depth life has gifted a still young king-in-waiting. (Also, he’s handsome as heck. 😉)
Richard, yes HMTQ loved Andrew and she wanted him settled in a better place where he could actually live out the rest of his life in comfort, not letting her mothers home fall into abject disrepair.
Andrew still harbours illusions of grandeur, his status as a senior Royal is no longer there for him to own, Royal Lodge is indeed a Palace of which he should not be residing in for many reasons in my opinion.
@ The lease states quite clearly that the property and its upkeep has to be maintained throughout, of which Prince Andrew has failed to honour relying heavily on his Brother the King to bail him out financially.
He does have his officer Navy pension and I am sure has investments. His mother and \KC have both helped him, but he feels entitled. The property has not been kept up property and needs a lotof work.....he seems to expect the RF to pay for this.
As a U.S. citizen, I am more concerned about the type of Visa Harry is here on. If it is a Diplomatic Visa, then it needs to be removed. He is here trying to live here as a citizen not a diplomat. IMO, Spain would be a good place for them. Harry will never apply for citizenship here because he will not be willing to give up his title as a Prince. They will still be spouting there rhetoric of which we are all tired of hearing. They have pretty much worn out their welcome. Time for them to move on.
A man who complains not feeling to be safe and protected enough, but then refuses to stay in one of the more shielded places in the world, preferring a public hotel, can be called just "Idiot". The question at this point Is: a simple Idiot, or even a compulsive dishonest liar, beside idiot? 🙄
"Found Religion" ? The princess has always gone to church,her faith has been a mainstay of her strength. As for Andrew, Charles is the King if he says your moving then you move lease or no lease.
Andrew doesn't need 130 rooms to be a hermit. If he wants to pay for his security, pay for refurbishing the building, and pay to maintain his life...more power to him. He's got money. Let him spend his own Pounds Sterling to live the life he thinks he deserves.
It is their lands and properties for centuries. What right do the british people have to censor whatever they do with their properties. The british people are already complaining about the monarchy being a burden, I don't understand why they even question the so called properties which the royal family is paying taxes on it.
The monarchy is a public institution. British people have every right to question its financial affairs, as they do through the Public Accounts Committee. When millions of so-called subjects are living in poor quality housing and using food banks to survive, it is quite shocking that this most privileged of families includes in its eye-watering wealth income from tax paid by those very people. That there is complicity between the mainstream media and the Royal family is surely demonstrated by the lack of coverage about this outrage. Charles' and William's advisors should have spotted this huge bear trap long ago. I like most members of the Royal family as individuals and would rather have a hereditary monarchy than an elected president. However, I understand for the first time the rage that led to the French revolution.
I thought that the Act from 1838 on the Duchys of Lancaster and Cornwall required them to report yearly to the Treasury of the government of the UK? And that their filings each year are actually kept in the librairies of both Houses of Parliament. Surely this means the information is quite accessible to anyone wanting to research this? As a Canadian I wasn’t completely shocked to discover that the duchys both take in lease or rental money as,outside of the sovereign grant,the rest of it is privately owned. Maybe I am confused on some of the finer details.🤷🏽♀️Can someone add a more lucid explanation? Mine is a bit simplified I admit.
I love how everyone just chuckles along at the mention of an American president having an enemies list and wanting to deport the son of the King of England. Like it's just normal. 😆
If the Duchy of Cornwall and Lancaster give away everything for free, how are they supposed to create an income used to support the King and the Prince of Wales? I though they were specifically created to generate an income.
It must be a crime to own a lot of land in your country....In my country, as long as you pay your property tax on the land you have, so what? Of course that's the reason my people left England in the 1600's, to own their own land....my family are still protective of their land.....as all Americans....
@@sophiedereans Yes I like Jess King's manner. She is pleasant, professional, listens and doesn't show any bias one way or the other. I feel like Jo is actually a Republican which is fine but I don't enjoy her jibes, particularly against Prince William
I don't think trump will kick harry out. he won't go after him like that. He won't be thinking about Harry. In fact, didn't he say ''I wish him good luck, he's going to need it''. ha ha
At the risk of being labeled a hateful MAGA extremist, I think that, since Harry and Megan chose to muck about in our Stateside politics, they should be invited to depart the Lower 48 and go somewhere else as soon as possible. Perhaps somewhere on the African Continent, preferably in a place with no access to social media and the internet, where they can fully embrace their mutual victimhood in complete solitude.
I love Rebecca's reports!!! However, many anti-monarchists probably love to watch this show. I'm sorry that this panel has turned into a negative mouthpiece.
Why is Richard Eden being sceptical about Robert’s report that the Queen also wanted Andrew to vacate Royal Lodge? Firstly he seems to have impeccable sources. Richard seems to suggest that because the Queen apparently favoured Andrew she would indulge him. Well she also loved her grandson Harry but that didn’t stop her putting her foot down when it was clear that the Sussex’s wanted to have royal cake and eat said cake. Same with Andrew - she knew that it reflected badly on the RF for him to be rattling around in that Palace with nothing but his ego to keep him company (and occasionally Fergie) not to mention the security cost of protecting someone without any public duties. She wasn’t daft, sadly, she just didn’t have time to do it. Charles will not allow the mess to continue into William’s reign - which at the rate Andrew is obstinately refusing to budge, is not unrealistic.

I really enjoyed the substitute host of today's show, Jess King. She is a wonderful addition to your panel. Thank you.🇺🇸
Trump has far more important things to deal with than Harry!
It’ll come
I agree however, Harry needs to keep his dumb mouth shut about our politics.
@@jilliegirlieit’s a free country and people can say whatever they want to ! Some of the women in Congress have said far worse things than HRH Prince Harry has ever said !
Yeah,like his oncoming court cases!!
@@jilliegirlieI agree. Stay out of our politics.
What a charming stand - in for Jo.
We don't want them in Canada. Tell them the weather is much better in Portugal.
@@saritap.5265 no one wants to go to Canada
But Calafornia has great weather they should stay put.
@CavarriLewis everyone I know would love to visit beautiful Canadaand many has immigrated there. I've heard the people are warm and friendly. It's on my bucket list!
During WW II The UK parked the (embarrassing, pro-German ) Duke of Windsor as governor of Bermuda, islands in the Atlantic where he could be watched and couldn't do any harm except cause an epidemic of eye-rolling amongst the Bermudans. Burmuda could come in handy in the same context for the Sussexes. 😆
So tired of Richard Eden now. I feel I don’t really trust his outlook anymore.
I think it would be wonderful to stop talking about Meghan and Harry. You just feed the story. I’m tired of them always being brought into comparisons with his family.
I was delighted to watch the Earthshot event and look forward to you getting Rebecca back again.
I agree. Richard seems to have changed. He's no longer as genuine and much less likely to do proper research (as you can see by all the rubbish about royal property, land etc.). He used to be a real individual but now he goes along with general opinion.
Great job of getting a guest host to fill in for Jo!! Though I do miss Jo, she's the best this young lady did a great job. She actually let the panel speak and wasn't trying to take over the show!! Again great job! Love this show! Oh yes I'm an American and you definitely helped take my 73yr old mind off this election result!! Ugh!!
I was lovely to have him here in South Africa and Cape Town was at her beautiful best
Jess King did a flawless job! Well done👍
Agree. V. good. Big improvement on Vine. They have heeded the watchers of this channel!
Yes she did- and NO interrupting the speakers!
Here we go again. Mr. Eden can't stop granting Harry and Meghan Royal status. This time in Portugal. Yes, it's a joke, but it reinforces the damaging idea that Harry is a working Royal at large.
He shd be looking deeper into the Portugal fiasco......Did they buy a property? If so its been reported that the property mentioned has not even been built!
@@emstirling-is4nu I'd be happy if this channel stopped reporting on Harry, full stop, except the court case which has national implications.
How generous of Harry not to reveal any more sordid details in the paperback version of "Spare." Isn't he top drawer for that! The truth is, he's milking that piece of drivel for all it's worth, and that's not much. I would never buy such trash, but I scanned over it at Barnes & Noble when it first came out and thought: "Now you've done it, you fool!" I hope Charles is beginning to listen to William and is beginning to see Harry for the traitor he is, and that he can never be trusted again. William will never let him back into the family. He may be able to come visit on holidays, but that's IT."
Oh he showed up today in a video and once again brought up his Mom and his feelings
When did William take control over the Monarchy?
@@jodievukmir3187 why were you listening ?
To be expected as Pr.W is in S.Africa with Earthshot. H is a big twit.
I have worshipped at the beautiful chapel at Windsor on several Sundays. Since August 2022, I have observed a lovely Royal Mummy with her shy oldest son and her only very confident daughter enjoying services there. I saw them several times. I think that woman was spiritually aware long before illness.
Thank you for sharing; faith and worship has brought me great comfort at difficult times. I pray she finds that too.
That black and white portrait of William at the end of the montage! It captures the maturity and depth life has gifted a still young king-in-waiting. (Also, he’s handsome as heck. 😉)
Who care what happens to H and M , it’s America and the rest of the world that matter. It’s going to be a dark time.
Lovely photos of Prince William in Cape Town
Sophie and Edward have class and that is the bottom line and the difference
@@susanturner1171 discuss and focus on them ( the Edinburghs)
Yay!!! A commentator replacing Sarah Vine. Someone who doesn't interrupt all the time. Love Jess King. Keep her on whenever Jo needs to be absent.
Richard, yes HMTQ loved Andrew and she wanted him settled in a better place where he could actually live out the rest of his life in comfort, not letting her mothers home fall into abject disrepair.
Well done Jess.
Earthshot prize was a great success . A great welcome by South Africa ❤
No one covered it, in the United States ? I couldn’t find it anywhere …
@@CavarriLewisthe whole awards ceremony was streamed on RUclips
@ okay, I didn’t hear anything about it on the national news broadcast !! I will check it out on RUclips !
Yes, so proud of my country, the Prince was warmly welcomed. That is South Africa at its best!!!😊❤❤❤❤❤
Andrew still harbours illusions of grandeur, his status as a senior Royal is no longer there for him to own, Royal Lodge is indeed a Palace of which he should not be residing in for many reasons in my opinion.
A 75 year lease is why Prince Andrew occupies Royal Lodge.
@ The lease states quite clearly that the property and its upkeep has to be maintained throughout, of which Prince Andrew has failed to honour relying heavily on his Brother the King to bail him out financially.
He does have his officer Navy pension and I am sure has investments. His mother and \KC have both helped him, but he feels entitled. The property has not been kept up property and needs a lotof work.....he seems to expect the RF to pay for this.
There was no "trap" montishitshow couple didn't want to do work...they quit
As a U.S. citizen, I am more concerned about the type of Visa Harry is here on. If it is a Diplomatic Visa, then it needs to be removed. He is here trying to live here as a citizen not a diplomat. IMO, Spain would be a good place for them. Harry will never apply for citizenship here because he will not be willing to give up his title as a Prince. They will still be spouting there rhetoric of which we are all tired of hearing. They have pretty much worn out their welcome. Time for them to move on.
To the people here who take the who bothers? route. It matters to Americans.
Omg William is gorgeous (and I’m old enough to be his granny). What lovely photos.
He looks Scruffy and needs to shave, he’s beginning to look like the homeless people he wants to help !
A man who complains not feeling to be safe and protected enough, but then refuses to stay in one of the more shielded places in the world, preferring a public hotel, can be called just "Idiot".
The question at this point Is: a simple Idiot, or even a compulsive dishonest liar, beside idiot? 🙄
@@margheritatimeus3400 Well,at least he doesn’t have to worry about his conversations ending up in the toxic British press !
Great to see Rebecca
Thank you for wearing the poppies.
"Found Religion" ? The princess has always gone to church,her faith has been a mainstay of her strength. As for Andrew, Charles is the King if he says your moving then you move lease or no lease.
Good lord I always forget how good Prince William's voice is
Andrew doesn't need 130 rooms to be a hermit. If he wants to pay for his security, pay for refurbishing the building, and pay to maintain his life...more power to him. He's got money. Let him spend his own Pounds Sterling to live the life he thinks he deserves.
Great substitute host for Jo!
Wonderful show today! Love from the USA!
Thanks! Glad that you enjoyed it!
I just so love Prince William so much, what a beautiful man, and Prince and what a great King he will be ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love to see you Rebecca. Hope you are well.
This young lady is very good at hosting! Love to see her more in this show.
I have Portugese friends and they tell ,,The Debarcle s are immensely disliked and they don't want them there...
@@tammywanless5324 ssssuuurrrreee ! I have land in Spain as well ! Who cares ?
It is their lands and properties for centuries. What right do the british people have to censor whatever they do with their properties. The british people are already complaining about the monarchy being a burden, I don't understand why they even question the so called properties which the royal family is paying taxes on it.
Channel 4 and the times doing a hactet job. They don't like the royals so won't do a proper documentary.
The monarchy is a public institution. British people have every right to question its financial affairs, as they do through the Public Accounts Committee. When millions of so-called subjects are living in poor quality housing and using food banks to survive, it is quite shocking that this most privileged of families includes in its eye-watering wealth income from tax paid by those very people. That there is complicity between the mainstream media and the Royal family is surely demonstrated by the lack of coverage about this outrage. Charles' and William's advisors should have spotted this huge bear trap long ago. I like most members of the Royal family as individuals and would rather have a hereditary monarchy than an elected president. However, I understand for the first time the rage that led to the French revolution.
Good substitute presenter for Jo. Enjoyable programme. Thank you.
The house in Portugal hasn’t been built yet so they have trouble running to it
@@teresapaskell5459 you know this, how ??
It was reported several weeks ago by a lady from Portugal.@@CavarriLewis
I thought that the Act from 1838 on the Duchys of Lancaster and Cornwall required them to report yearly to the Treasury of the government of the UK? And that their filings each year are actually kept in the librairies of both Houses of Parliament. Surely this means the information is quite accessible to anyone wanting to research this? As a Canadian I wasn’t completely shocked to discover that the duchys both take in lease or rental money as,outside of the sovereign grant,the rest of it is privately owned. Maybe I am confused on some of the finer details.🤷🏽♀️Can someone add a more lucid explanation? Mine is a bit simplified I admit.
I love how everyone just chuckles along at the mention of an American president having an enemies list and wanting to deport the son of the King of England.
Like it's just normal. 😆
What solution? It's their private property
Their Income is taxed at 46%😡
We Americans love William!
@@voices_vary maybe you should talk about him, instead of focusing on HRH Prince Harry and his beautiful wife !
And Harry
@@CavarriLewisexactly
@ absolutely !
@ they are obsessed with Harry lol
If the Duchy of Cornwall and Lancaster give away everything for free, how are they supposed to create an income used to support the King and the Prince of Wales? I though they were specifically created to generate an income.
It must be a crime to own a lot of land in your country....In my country, as long as you pay your property tax on the land you have, so what? Of course that's the reason my people left England in the 1600's, to own their own land....my family are still protective of their land.....as all Americans....
He has bigger issues than H and M to think about.
It will be DHS issue, Once Trumps people get in-it will be released. Trump does not care about harry.
Yeah,like his oncoming court cases!!
President Elect Trump has a lot of work ahead of him fixing everything Biden/Harris screwed up, than to worry about Harry.
Jess King does a great job !
Yes she does.
@@maggiedavies5312. Agree
100 times better than Sarah Vine
1000 times better than passive agressive jo.
@@sophiedereans
Yes I like Jess King's manner.
She is pleasant, professional, listens and doesn't show any bias one way or the other.
I feel like Jo is actually a Republican which is fine but I don't enjoy her jibes, particularly against
Prince William
Richard and all the rest it is princess Catherine start using their titles #be a correct royal Reporter
Prince William is going to make an awesome king! 😊
Trump is back in the white house while sparry is always stuck in the dog house.
No one is taking your bait !
@@CavarriLewis Missy is spouting facts
@@jilliegirlie no one but the haters are concerned with what someone else is doing in their lives --Just a flock of busybodies !
When William was talking about Katherine, he had such a sparkle in his eyes. That joy shows she really is on the mend.
I don't think trump will kick harry out. he won't go after him like that. He won't be thinking about Harry. In fact, didn't he say ''I wish him good luck, he's going to need it''. ha ha
At the risk of being labeled a hateful MAGA extremist, I think that, since Harry and Megan chose to muck about in our Stateside politics, they should be invited to depart the Lower 48 and go somewhere else as soon as possible. Perhaps somewhere on the African Continent, preferably in a place with no access to social media and the internet, where they can fully embrace their mutual victimhood in complete solitude.
I am certainly no MAGA, but I wholeheartedly agree with you!
Lovely to see Rebecca.
It’s hard to decide who’s more hyper-obsessed with Harry & Meghan - Richard or Piers Morgan?
11million. Yes but over 16 years. I.e. less than 1 million a year. How much does NCP make per car park per year.
An irrelevant question as NCP is not attached to a public institution.
I love Rebecca's reports!!! However, many anti-monarchists probably love to watch this show. I'm sorry that this panel has turned into a negative mouthpiece.
Why is Richard Eden being sceptical about Robert’s report that the Queen also wanted Andrew to vacate Royal Lodge? Firstly he seems to have impeccable sources. Richard seems to suggest that because the Queen apparently favoured Andrew she would indulge him. Well she also loved her grandson Harry but that didn’t stop her putting her foot down when it was clear that the Sussex’s wanted to have royal cake and eat said cake. Same with Andrew - she knew that it reflected badly on the RF for him to be rattling around in that Palace with nothing but his ego to keep him company (and occasionally Fergie) not to mention the security cost of protecting someone without any public duties. She wasn’t daft, sadly, she just didn’t have time to do it. Charles will not allow the mess to continue into William’s reign - which at the rate Andrew is obstinately refusing to budge, is not unrealistic.
