The Royalty driven tourism has no factual basis at all, tourists visit London where there happens to be a few palaces. They also visit Cornwall and the Lakes and other cities where there are none.

Versailles doesn't do badly in a republic, either.

Funnily enough I expressed my views on the royal family and this particular episode the other day and one of my children said she was sick of my left wing liberal views and it was about time I grew up.

Prince Phillip looks like an alien from another planet. It’s actually disturbing.

I once sat next to a member of the royal family and actually didn’t even know they were until afterwards. Conversely I was once asked if I wanted to present something to another member of the royal family but had to bow. I less than politely declined the opportunity.

Maybe we keep them but make it meritocratic. Like, whoever can do the best waving or most convincing lizard impression gets to be monarch for a year.

But it's MY 63p!!! I don't care if it's 63p or £63,000! I never told them to take it for those spongers!! Fuck 'em! Let them see how REAL people have to live!

How do they collect the 63p is it in tax because if it is many don’t pay tax like children so it costs a tax payer a lot more than 63p

I'm surprised no one's pointed out the apparent inconsistency that the government are celebrating the birth of a third child at the very same time as they have withdrawn child support for millions of ordinary families with more than two children?

Two-child limit on benefits: are you going to be affected?

I thought you'd be more outraged at paying £149 to the British Army
Personally I'm happier with the 63p than the £5k it cost me for benefits!

Just where does all your tax go?

Probably still have our city walls too, the destruction of which being an act of Royal spite.

Another parasite that will never work, never buy a meal and always get the best health care.
Thousands of other women will have given birth to kids today without the fanfare and attention of the media...some of those children will hopefully grow up to make a positive impact on the world around them. This baby as now the 3rd in line out of three siblings ...might grow up like great uncle Andrew or great uncle Edward...two really impressive role models (heaven help us)

I can't interest you in some used red, white and blue bunting from 1977 I recently found in the loft then, lifeskyblue?
