What made laugh was when Kate and William recently donated 3k to a homeless shelter and the media made a big deal out of it. 😂... They really think the public are idiots
£3k of *other people's money* ...
3 thousand is nothing though ,And two people donated that,not one person?
Loose change
We'll the public are idiots, because the royals are still there.
They might have a point
Kings and Queens and Royals should only ever be mentioned in books along wth Dragons and Wizards.
Yes but what about ofther royal families?
@@MayaLarsen-y3r Was that statement not specific enough. I never mentioned nationality of any.
@@johnmurray1044 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@MayaLarsen-y3r His statement covers ALL royals, not just the UK. 🤦🏾🙄
Absolutely sickening. I used to be neutral about the royal family but over the last 10 years I have learnt far too much to not not desire an end to this parasitic institution.
"neutral" about .... a feudal institution?
Do you have any proof that all the royal family did something wrong ?
Everyone loves them for no reason
I love how they "help" the NHS by charging it 11.5 million quid.
Yes the information is out of there for everyone to see, but do you think the conditioned minds will ever even think about such things to research them?
William had a bad year when both his wife and dad were able to queue jump to get treatment immediately, instead of being on a waiting list. My heart bleeds.
Oh please, this is terrible. Catherine should have had 20 years of good health before this. It's really a separate matter.
Royalty is nonsense and parasitic, that part is true.
Neither sausage fingers nor Kate have ever had cancer. That was a complete pack of lies!!
NOT!
Then see a doctor.😊
@mitvelkez They also had the absolute best specialists in the world attend them, with the best and most modern equipment while staying in a luxury hospital for the privileged, meals by top chefs etc. I feel so sorry for them(NOT)😮😮
Living in a commonwealth country we need to be rid of the corrupt British monarchy.
English monarchy
Your largest landlord is also your literal king. And you all wonder why your housing situation is absolutely fooked.
@@doreenhollywood7459 They are the UK monarchy, I never voted for them. Also, they are anything but Ænglish, they are the descendants of the Normans. Everything truly Ænglish died on a hill near Battle 958 years ago.
I’d like to think that we, in the UK, can do it too.
German!
No need for the royals . .
@@samik5755 they are incentive. They show that if a landlord can own enough land. They can become king.
@@samik5755 yes indeed.
@@Praisethesunson that’s hilarious 😂
@samik What's it got to do with you?
But but but tourism!!!!!!
The amount of greed is sickening.
As well as his voice 😩.
Plus, there's an hour long ITV show on a Sunday morning just about the Royals. Crazy.
Please let's not forget that apart from Britain Charles enjoys the privileges of the head of state in 15 other countries.
Exactly
Jamaica say’s NO!🎉✝️🏴☮️
@@frusia123 Charles is also the largest landlord in Canada.
And owns some lands and any assets founds beneath them in those countries.
Good point!
Wow, charging the cash strapped NHS is really something.
Parasites
That's definitely the word.
you don’t have those in communism.
All royal families are the same.
@@majdavojnikovic You do but there are many countries that don't have a parasitical monarchy, that are also not communist.
Nuh uh think of everything they contribute to the UK....
A waste of Oxygen , the lot of them.
But you certainly aren't!😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that they don't want to pay tax into the system they love so much is sickening.
@@CD-pm9kc taxes are for poor people obviously. The French revolution never crossed the channel.
They do pay tax . This happened in Queen Elizabeth II time
The fact that they even charge the RNLI to rent a lifeboat launch hut is a disgrace. The RNLI is a charity that people make donations to.
So you don't. Thanks for clarifying that.😊
I no longer donate to RNLI.
Personally I think that the RNLI should become a non R affiliated body, and that boat owners of all sorts should be charged a yearly insurance rate; and I would like it to include corporations, to indemnify them and cover them for assistance that they might require should tankers and the like, be involved in being rescued, spills of toxic waste etc., were that feasible.
They want our empathy, they want our attention when it suits they've always had our money and lives. These people are kind of disgusting.
But you continue to live here! What's wrong with you!!
So you agree they own the country then!
On top of their incomes they also have crown estates which is one of the biggest landlords in New York .
The royals rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in rental income from America and this is every year .
The British people really do need to wake up and smell the coffee .
Republic now .
Guess where most of the income from the Crown Estates goes.
Straight to the Treasury. This year almost £1billion
@@ehilton96 ...Which is its entire intended purpose. What point do you imagine you're making?
You really don’t know much that most their properties that part of the crown estate don’t belong to the RF right.They only get the income from the duchy profit .And it not control by the RF
@@ehilton96except for the very generous sovereign grant that Charles gets annually. And it doesn’t include the duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster which go straight into Charles and William’s pockets, without taxation
Why should the royals be exempted from tax.Tgey used roads that are.maintained by taxes,if the used the roads.they need to be taxed.
William bleating about the homeless and Charles with his dodgy £millions in carrier bags.
Open some of your lands for homeless ! William going on about homelessness is ridiculous.
@@rosiepugh8310 Maintaining the speculative value of that land is far more important than something as trivial as housing his subjects (serfs).
Homelessness can be solved at a stroke. Johnson showed this at the start of the pandemic. Therefore, to retain homelessness as an issue is a political choice, and it’s clearly a choice Billy the Baldy is happy with, since it allows him to pose in front of the cameras to fool the gullible into thinking he is other than an incredibly expensive drain on resources.
At it again this morning.
Utterly weird
What hypocrisy from Charlie and co, thing is people will still clap and support them even though the royals are nothing more than a reality show.
I will still clap for the Royals They are good people Long Live King Charles Long Live the Royal Family ❤
FINALLY SOMEBODY SAYS THE TRUTH !
Still can't hear you.😊
Well, half the truth. The other side of the coin is how Hamas grifted every charity in Gaza, but you guys don’t care about that.
The Royal family aren't called The Firm for nothing.
Firm grip on their money.
And we pay for it. They're criminals
So you left blighty in disgust. And I respect you for that!
Royals have been dodgy for years so let’s just get rid.
Years ago I made the mistake of telling my Nan that she'll soon get a letter from the queen on her 100th birthday. She answered, "I don't want a letter of that parasite ". Well done Nan.
Respect to nan.
I do love that woman.
@@lundsweden
Did the bit of the OP "Years ago..." not register with you?
Way back in the early 80s a work colleague of mine (about 60 then) thought it would be a good idea to privatise them
What could be better, stop the Tax payer supporting them, andthe royal apologists can buy shares in them, surely with the 'millions they generate in tourism revenue' (despite their being no independently audited official figures of such) the shares would pay good divedends?
This is what happens when your largest landlord is also your literal king.
In England the crown in the shape of the king is the ultimate ruler as both lord spiritual and lord temporal after all all of the freeholds are paid directly to the crown and all bishops and ultimately priests of the church of England have to be approved by the crown. In addition parliament also rules in the name of the crown
Feudalism, never left. Only got rebranded.
@@man_named_AGGiE Only In England in Scotland the people not the crown is sovereign
Insanely wealthy thanks to the stupidity of people.
@@davidmcintyre8145 If the Canadians or Australians ever try to do actual land reform you could see how much more sovereign the property rights of "the crown" are than anything relating to the sovereignty of the (plebs) people.
The problem with royalty nowadays is britain has nothing to be proud of
What a complete disgrace
Your comment wasn't that bad. Certainly an improvement.😊
Michael walker is a great presenter for novara media love him
Yes I agree. He's an excellent presenter. I love his cutting narration and wit.
He deserves a much larger audience.
All of the Novara presenters are very good at what they do.
Welfare Kings 🤴 and Queens 👸.
Paid for by the British public. It’s so depressing.
While our elderly get crumbs
@@peterporkeresq.2817 when alls said and done, yes 😂 it's a sad story really. Wouldn't want to be part
It's amazing how brits havent overthrown the royals
Most of the people are blind and follow them like a puppy...
Why would we? Better than dodgy politicians. And our Royal family do a great deal for our country.
@@loulbRi exactly. Conditioned minds.
not really it’s amazing how many ppl still actually have respect for them like charles could literally take their house and they would thank him for it it’s mad
@@jennyk488 Your MPs aren't dodgy?
Ask WHERE they got their wealth. Indians and Africans will tell you.
You don't need to go that far. The British people should be able to tell you as the pillaging started off locally.
While I'm not disrespecting Africa, the wealth stolen from India is incomparable to anything in history, trillions it were. (45 trillion is of course an exaggerated but it was definitely more than 10 to 15 trillion dollars)
@Self-is-UltimateReality ABSOLUTELY, ask them where did the Crown Jewels come from? 🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@Self-is-UltimateReality The enslaving of millions of irreplaceable souls robbed forever (along with their future descendants) from their homeland is, I would also venture to say, 'Incomparable to anything in history.' India never had that done to them.
@@irefi64You are right about the atrocities done in Africa though. I can understand the magnitude as in my neighbouring city the silk workers mutilated their fingers themselves so that they don't have to work in the British mills forcefully.
The royals represent the 16th century. It’s time for England to join the 21st.
Land shouldn't be owned by a few royals, or private landlords, abstracting unearned income from thousands of leaseholders, living from hand to mouth.
The continued existence of the Royal family as an institution epitomises the ridiculous wee country that is England. Yes folks, I have made the distinction.
The most terrible thing about the monarchy is that they directly profit when soldiers die without a will, as the royal family receives their money. The royals directly profited from the deaths of young men during D-Day, Le Somme and other huge battles. In the king's name, young men were drafted into his army, forced to swear an oath to the king, then shipped out to a foreign country, many of which died horrible deaths, only for their money to then be sent to the king. That does not sit right with me, and the fact it still happens today is sickening.
Wow thank you for sharing this information, I’d never heard this before, that’s incredible they get away with this.
No problem! It's truly awful, and whilst the practice has been taking place for several centuries, I believe it became an official law in the mid 1920s.
I should clarify that the soldier needs to have no will and have no immediate family for the monarch to inherit their wealth.
@ peanutboxes4076.. here in America we knew this about the British Soldiers !
British monarchy are the biggest wingers 😢 in the planet. Get over yourselves and pay your tax like everyone else.
You don't get to become a literal king by being like us filthy commoners
Wingers or whingers?
They do pay tax on thir income from the duchies of Cornwall and Lancster
What makes things actually worse for us members of the proletariat, is that we’re taxed on money we actually work for.
Both
About time the Royal Family became a ceremonial Institution only and was taxed like any other Institution at the top rate.
High time they were abolished ,should never have been restored in 1660
Why do the British people put up with this crowd?
So where are you from?
We should be ashamed that we have a royal family.
Most of them are brain washed sycophants, relying on the Tell-Lie-Vision, to tell them what to think.
Because they know there value. Stupidity to talk about something you have no idea about
Honestly, I don’t know how these people are so revered. They’re certainly as far as it gets from the moral high ground. When many people under the Commonwealth are struggling, these entitled people are living the high life. I’d never curtsy to them or stand in line to get a glimpse of them in their Rolls Royces or golden carriage. It’s disgraceful.
It’s nice to see criticism that’s not about Meghan or Harry. That always seemed bogus to me.
Agreed, both seem to be sacrificial lambs to keep the press happy and away from stories about other royals
How is that bogus? They are the worst of all of them. I've come to the conclusion that that beast was allowed in because the rest of them aren't that great. Harry was always a POS.
@@happyhabitpodcast Maybe she's a bit of karma for their past?
Added to that they are not funded by the taxpayer and Harry is taking on the gutter press - the ones his father and brother have deals with. I personally hope he wins the court cases and and is not out of pocket in the process.
They are all about money - bunch of grifters
It's never not been an Oligarchy.
NEVER FORGET Charlie altered inheritance tax laws to suit himself!!!!!!
Shame on the Royals. Hopefully the younger generations are not star struck by these hypocrites and finally get rid of them!
Even amongst the under-45s, supporters of the monarchy are a small fraction of the population. All these polls are phrased to ensure a positive outcome for the status quo, e.g. 'Do you think the king is doing a good job?' - it's not a question about whether the monarchy is justifiable or not.
Hurry up and get it done. The commonwealth countries are moving forward.
By the time little George is old enough to become king, let’s hope there won’t be any monarchy.
wishful thinking, the last time they got rid of them they had to chop his head off to do it, and later they let them back in !
There Will and *Prince George will be King One Day ❤
They're just people. It's not a fair system when people like them are above the law, and the rest of us pay our fair way to a healthy society. In any other scenario these people would be in prison.
@@McCloudious in more civilized nations they would just be stripped of power and you'd have adequate mass public housing.
The whole institution needs to be moved into the private sector, taxed as a private institution and services paid for, if required (subject to value for money).
You guys need to get rid of the monarchy!
All that wealth, privileges and entilement and yet, they still look soo old and miserable.
Speakers corner, the legendary place where you can discuss ANYTHING except the royals.
Great "democracy" or is it a dictatorship?
What would happen if you did ?
seriously?
Good thing the royals can’t put you on the chopping block anymore
Royalty returning its wealth to the public domain would do them so much good.
Yes like all of it, and let them go out and get jobs. I know that's never going to happen but it puts a picture in my mind that makes me laugh. Imagine Charlie and his wife as ordinary pensioners or Willie's kids going to a local school and Willie himself as a tradesman and his wife as a partime cleaner lol. Andy would be in prison of course. 🤣🤣
It is all about control and people fall for it.
Biggest single owner of London real estate.

Having cancer doesn't stop you from being a see you next Tuesday
Privatisation and unelected Royalty Merry Christmas 😒
Corrupt to the core
Brilliant analysis of the royals leaching on ordinary people
The constant abuse of power also when they simply announce the matter won’t be discussed or is private despite taxpayers have a right to know.
The British people sure do love their royal family, they can do no wrong🤨
Somehow all this controversy is Meghan Markles fault 😜.
I was thinking the same thing.
😂😂😂😂😂
Is Rachel Markle actually the good guy here? 🤷🏻♀️😂
@@ErinAllen-qe7fy No, both sides of that coin are gross.
Mehgan is just a distraction. Don't let the right hand know what the left hand is doing. It is all a distraction to what the royals are up to.
No need for royals. Tax them
Be careful now....the king is anointed by holy oil and the head of the church. Leading by example how to manage children, adultery, money and dealing with the poor. Ohhh what a role model the holy king is.
You mean the church that was only started up so the king could get divorced and marry someone else? 🤣
it doesn't have to be like this all that is needed is the will to strip them of all their properties and wealth, unfortunately that would mean ending the corruption that those in postions of authority enable and need.
US citizens see this solidly as a grift.
Not all of them. Some believe in the fantasy....It's a bit like an 'Emily in Paris' sort of situation.
It is about time you get rid of these grifters and best friends of Seville 👹👿👺 well done Harry you left 🙏
He left with a bigger snake than they are. 🤣
More important than collecting Tax from these leeches, would be to stop the enormous ammounts of money they take out of the exchequer. And I'm not talking about the civil list, which is paltry by comparison to the obscene ammounts they garner from revenues on coastal, riverside and mining rights.
Commercial imperative = leech.
As a Cornish person I will never stop saying.....bun.the.duchy
@westopherbaker1928 Is that Burn or Ban?
@iamrocketray intentionally vague, could be both
So William talking about how brutal the year was is a brave thing to do, that will help other men. Years ago, when Meghan was asked how she was doing, she was utterly attacked by the same media for mildly saying it was sometimes tough. No wonder she left the rotten lot.
An interesting examination of the acquisition of wealth by the royal family. Many of us believe this wealth belongs rightly to the people, and ought to be returned to the national coffers, and those with royal titles reduced to penury.
I may have misread but somewhere I read that Prince William wants less scrutiny not more
Down with the crown!
Yep. Pass the sick bucket, especially when we get the grinning Cat milking her 5 stars cancer treatment v the NHS lottery and 'her' Christmas carol service which is another "it's all about me" publicity stunt.
If the brits like so much the royals it’s because they love Disneyland and fairytales
Why would the British media concentrate on that when they can discuss A holiday card from the Sussex land the Arch swell foundation and productions. A business holiday card and that is the news.

Should stop paying tax until they do.
When the previous incumbent died her body lay in state at St Giles in Edinburgh. It is estimated that 33,000 people "filed past" it. That is less than 1% of Scotland's population. Their time is coming and I hope the younger generation will be done with them. I was many years ago! 😡😡😡

The Duchies have never been the private property of the Windsor family. It was effectively privatised in the eighteenth century when the king handed over the Crown Estate to parliamentary control (the Crown Estate was also not the private property of the royals). The monarch and elder son are granted the profits generated by the duchies but they don’t own them.
If the monarch has no son then there is no one to pay the profits to.
This exactly. The monarchy depends for its survival upon a whole host of disinformation. This alone is enough to tell anyone with any kind of critical thinking faculties that there can be no genuine benefits for the majority of us in having a monarchy.
No capital gains tax on their gains, they sure do have creative accountants that al capone would have been proud off
