I can't believe they get away by not disclosing their wealth. the late queen refused to pay for windsor castle when it went up in flames. since windsor was open to the public so they could get back the money they paid for renovations. current king decided to pay proper tax two years ago while the rest of mortals had no choice but to pay. I am surprised p. william did not want to disclose how much he had on his piggy bank. instead he donated some land (duchy of cornwall). I have huge problem with how greedy they truly are
Yeah. Considering all the problems the UK faces, I'm surprised they're still getting away with it. Not to mention the utter lack of true patriotism on their side. How selfish can you be? They had these unfathomable riches just handed to them, but do they use that to improve things for their country? Nope. I don't expect 'morally upstanding' behavior from big corporations. But royalty (as far as it's still allowed to exist) should show more gratitude towards the population that is the very foundation of their status and wealth.
I've always felt that many charities in Britain were more like businesses. It turns out that those wealthy patrons are the biggest beneficiaries, both in terms of money and in terms of PR. They make it look like they're donating to noble causes but in fact that's just another way of extracting money from the poor.
Why is there so much fear on this reporting ?? Why this is not front page news?? Poor people and working class people have been taxed for everything!!! This should be in front panel discussion
@ so we can’t challenge one oligarch at a time ?? If my pocket is being picked - then why not? This country taxes the working class to the mound to allow these accidental birth humans some sort of privilege for something that happened 400 years ago?? You might want to pay them and keep them - so the royal commissioning should be on a gofundme page for collecting your pennies - not to rob mine

So they lay off the people who work on their estates, which they can't sell anyway. What now? Lots more unemployed people, and that's not even counting the people who make a living leeching off tourists.
The real benefits are paying no IHT and no CGT. The CT on 27M+23M = 50M combined net income is only about 12.5M a year. That's the same amount of tax as would be generated on only one higher rate CGT chargeable transaction gain of about 50M at the new 24% rate. The duchies will be making many, many times more in capital gains per year than that. The market value of the assets would beggar belief and the IHT foregone from their exempt status equally so; although that being said, the duchies assets would probably be settled into trusts which would continue intact when the beneficiaries change through the laws of succession

Not hour ago I've watched 'Shoulder to shoulder', about woman in England who were fighting for woman's rights, its about time for man to show some b*llz!
The historians I've read explain this quite differently [best: read "The Crown & The Establishment" by Kingsley Martin]. The "government" didn't "take control" of the "Crown Estate." The lands that comprise what is now called the Crown Estate were part of an exchange between the king and his government during George III's reign. Up to the point of this arrangement, the monarch was in charge of ensuring the various parts of government, including the military, got paid, got financed, etc. The monarch drew from various treasuries to do this. The arrangement was for the government to take responsibility for these tasks, drawn from the profits of the newly minted Crown Estate, and pay the monarch a share of these profits - the CIVIL LIST. Since this is only a contract between reigning monarch and government, the agreement expires at the end of the reign. Up until Elizabeth II, the contract established the Civil List expenditures for the whole reign, so George III's, William IV's, Victoria's, Edward VII, George V, Edward VIII, and George VI's had set Civil List allowances. Elizabeth's had to be amended several times and renamed. For the first time, we witnessed the formalizing of this contract when Charles III addressed the Accession Council, where he said he would continue the agreement. Legally speaking, a monarch could begin his/her reign and NOT agree. Like these duchies, the Crown Estate is the property of the monarch, not the government.
A word to those sitting in secret chambers trying to figure a way to shine this particular flavour of vulgarity... don;t bother.. nothing you can do can stop any of what is hidden being made visible. We wont be entering into any new compromises with this level of criminal cartel.. that was never the deal.. they have moved themselves into a situation where they own us and everything we engage with.. And make no mistake.. the collapsing of social welfare and housing is UNLAWFUL SURVIELANCE.. Hosuing associations and councils need to get their faces out of the private and family lives of those they house.. Their job is to MANAGE PROPERTY not manage the people who live inthe property.. this is a human rights violation that is ONLY designed to enable the state to take elders, the infirm and children.. which is all done by the Crown..

@@kismit100wait a minute, are you saying they are doing things for our country? What exactly? Their privileged lives on display for tourists and the public. Thousands of years taking from the plebs etc etc. And we are paying them for the privilege? You mean that? What have you done for your country? We have every right to moan you know, none of us are making millions of the back of our fellow man ( at least most of us) are we? I know it wasn’t a secret but the hypocrisy is beyond horrific.
You mean the Monarch is not among the richest in the world? That's not good. We need to manufacture more of what we consume, more factories, more jobs, reasonably low taxes but more funds for the taxman. Good economic policies, sensible immigration policies etc, etc.

Charities should not be paying high rent to anyone.
Crazy when pensioners freeze. In cold saf endightment off uk not very great britain
Unbelievable. We need inheritance and capital gains tax on all this now or the madness will never end
Why do the British people put up with this? No wonder the country's in the state it's in.
Because they are properly indoctrinated, that is probably main reason! And because submissive obedient mentality, at least amongst critical majority!
It’s outrages. Needs to pay back. William didn’t want to disclose because of it
Clarkson, Piers Morgan etc will blame Megan M. for this.
Ah yes, 'foreigner' and not quite white, perfect 'culprit'!
