Care Fees Royal Family

Frank - if you think they will employ care staff to look after them, then what was the point of the original post?

I think if one of the Royal Family got dementia they would employ care staff and look after him / her in one of their houses.
If necessary they will get the appropriate alterations done.

So will she need to move into a Housing Association Sheltered flat when/if she retires? Maybe that is why she refuses to abdicate.

Obviously better quality housing for the elderly in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Yes of course it's a tied cottage...I hadn't thought of that

He's fine sometimes, but when the needle gets stuck..................

Buckingham Palace isn't a council house - it is a tied cottage and she requires it to carry out her job

If we all ignored his posts, maybe he would get fed up and go away.

Like the idea Frank.

Does the Queen pay rent on her council house btw? Is she on the tenancy agreement or has she signed it over to one of the younger ones?

If she hasn't she'll be OK but if she has then unfortunately they will lose a percentage of their housing benefit for each bedroom they don't need (please note 'need' not 'use').



Admin....is it possible to have a 'wooden spoon' emoticon?

Wonder if she has a London pension

Perhaps she'd better take your advice, Frank, and put her properties in joint names with one of her children!

He may be bored but he is boring me.

merlotgran he's bored I think.

I doubt if it would come to that Frank as you very well know. How about playing a different tune for while? We know every verse to this one and it's becoming tedious.

How many anti-royal threads have you started this morning, Frank?

Well they could sell Balmoral Castle and Sandringham House for her care fees.

Frank

The Queen privately owns two properties, Balmoral Castle and Sandringham House, which are not publicly funded (C&P from www.royal.gov.uk)

They can't sell Buckingham Palace Frank because they don't own it.

Is that your plan for your large 4-bedroom home Franks?
