The most recent FOI by a blacktop newspaper report Mrs Windsor had vetoed 31 bills that would have affected the PRIVATE income of herself and her son. My Regiment, The First Royal Tank Regiment decided in order to improve equipment ranks below SNCO would not be provided with No 2 Service dress, just two pair of black tank overalls one for working on tanks, the other for ceremonial parades. The sight of the huge number of Guards Regiments, both mounted and dismounted with their mega expensive uniforms, horses and acrutiments amounts to very many millions on The Queens Birthday Parade . We were very lucky to have an aristocracy with the foresight to invite KG1 to take the throne. He was only 58th in line, but the first protestant they could find, he hated England, could not and would not speak English and was buried in his beloved Germany. QV1,s children were reported to still speak with a very heavy German accent when visiting any one of the huge number of " holiday homes" we theoretically own but definitely pay for,The, then, Duke of Windsor, who put self before country sums up the monarchy superbly, self before the peasants who pay for their luxurious lifestyle. Do you, your children, or grandchildren fall under the Bedroom Tax rules, surprisingly Mrs Windsor and her dysfunctional family appear to be exempt. Tourism, only cost us a few pence a year each, very lucky to have them! Yes you can plait fog.
