A financial report revealed that Queen Elizabeth II and her family cost the British people £102.4 million during the previous year.
Ever wondered how much the royal family cost the taxpayer? Accounts for the Sovereign Grant (https://www.royal.uk/financial-reports-2021-22), which funds the Queen and her household’s official expenses, released in June of 2022 show the monarchy cost the taxpayer £102.4m during 2021-22 – an increase of 17% from the previous financial year.

Work on Buckingham Palace, which is undergoing a 10-year refurbishment plan drove up spending. Money from leftover Sovereign Grant funds from previous years was used to meet the shortfall.

Hampton Court, the home of King Henry VIII (https://britishheritage.com/the-home-of-king-henry-viii)


Where did the money go? Funds are used by the Queen and other members of the Royal Family to pay for royal duties, such as receptions and garden parties and visiting schools. Last year, almost 2,300 official engagements were carried out.
Travel costs rose by £1.3m to £4.5m, this included 26 journeys that cost more than £15,000 each. The most expensive trip, costing £226,383, was the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's tour of the Caribbean in March.

Most of the grant was spent on the cost of maintaining occupied royal palaces, and staff pay. Last year £55m was spent on efforts to accelerate work on Buckingham Palace in time for the Platinum Jubilee - an increase of 41%.

Reflecting on the year 2021-22, the Keeper of the Privy Purse, Sir Michael Stevens, said: “The year covered in the report reflects some return to normality in many ways for the Royal Household with physical engagements, travel and inward visits by Heads of States undertaken.
"However, welcome as it was for such events to be back, no review of the year could be complete without reflecting on the sad passing of The Prince Philip, The Duke of Edinburgh and the Funeral which took place in St George’s Chapel in April. His service and contribution to the nation were fittingly reflected and his legacy remains as strong today over twelve months later."

Detailed instructions were issued over methods of destruction, in order to erase all evidence of the purge. When documents were burned, "the waste should be reduced to ash and the ashes broken up", while any that were being dumped at sea must be "packed in weighted crates and dumped in very deep and current-free water at maximum practicable distance from the coast".https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/nov/29/revealed-bonfire-papers-empire

Death estimates are between 2 and 4 million people


The Bengal famine of 1943 estimated to have killed up to three million people was not caused by drought but instead was a result of a “complete policy failure” of the then-British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, a recent study has said.

The study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, provided scientific backing for arguments that Churchill’s policies played a significant role in contributing to the 1943 catastrophe.

The researchers analysed a soil moisture database cover the years 1870 to 2016 to reconstruct agricultural droughts.

The researchers studied six major famines in the subcontinent between 1873 and 1943 and concluded that the Bengal famine was the only famine that does not appear to be linked directly to soil moisture deficit and crop failures.

There is a story that is commonly told in Britain that the colonisation of India (https://www.aljazeera.com/topics/country/india.html) – as horrible as it may have been – was not of any major economic benefit to Britain itself. If anything, the administration of India was a cost to Britain. So the fact that the empire was sustained for so long – the story goes – was a gesture of Britain’s benevolence.
New research by the renowned economist Utsa Patnaik – just published (https://cup.columbia.edu/book/agrarian-and-other-histories/9789382381952) by Columbia University Press – deals a crushing blow to this narrative. Drawing on nearly two centuries of detailed data on tax and trade, Patnaik calculated that Britain drained a total of nearly $45 (https://www.livemint.com/Companies/HNZA71LNVNNVXQ1eaIKu6M/British-Raj-siphoned-out-45-trillion-from-India-Utsa-Patna.html?utm_source=scroll&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=scroll) trillion (https://www.livemint.com/Companies/HNZA71LNVNNVXQ1eaIKu6M/British-Raj-siphoned-out-45-trillion-from-India-Utsa-Patna.html?utm_source=scroll&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=scroll) from India during the period 1765 to 1938.

Not true. She was murdered because she was going to marry out of the Royal German family. She even left a note fearing her death shortly before her 'accident' in the car.

With all the cancel culture sucking each other off over micro-wins, you'd think someone would cancel these assholes since they pretty much have spent their entire lives being pampered by working folks and their lineage is responsible for the brutal slaying of countless commoners because they read a book.

The reaction to Queen Elizabeth has been interesting. You have people from both sides bashing her. Indians attacking Indians for praising her. Very influential figure.

The slave and African jewels stolen stuff is too much but maybe I'm bias because it's rooted in anti-Euro. Even though I've said before these colonizers used their riches to bully nations like Polska

But I did see for example the ministers recently tried to use funds allocated for hospitals, schools and low income families; to instead pay for rising energy costs in their Palace. The argument these people have never worked day in their life holds some truth. But I'm not anti-Monarch. I still treasure tradition and history.

Is Elizabeth the last extension of a once great empire or did she assist in its collapse. Yes.

i see no problem with colonization of the super power european nations 200 years ago, then you can always go back further in history of stronger countries invading weaker countries and forcing them remittance every year... it was either getting cucked by the british, french or spanish cucks..who do you choose? cant pick and choose, same with the 3 super powers who would either fight over control who owns what in their grand scheme of things... all those colonies only have to blame themselves not standing up to fight or just guided by shit leadership that their country wasnt industrialized or weaponised to fight against the superpowers...yet today still fighting with rocks and stones among themselves or against an invader....

She didn't give interviews and abstained from making political commentary. She had influence but we have no idea what that was. I don't get the boot licking.

I do think it is funny that she married her cousin but had issue with her grandson marrying Markle. Incest = good; brown = bad.

You really think it's funny/ironic that the British monarchy married internally and shun any formal relationships with non-whites? Seems extremely consistent with that welfare Buckingham hillbillies group.
