Isn’t it time to ditch the monarchy?
Chris Williamson:

🧐 Just saw a report on royal finances that’s hard to ignore. Even the staunchest royalists should cringe at the sheer scale of handouts—53% increase in the sovereign grant next year, while the Winter Fuel Allowance gets axed. 🤔 How does Rachel Reeves justify this? King Charles pocketed nearly £30M from the Duchy of Lancaster alone! Meanwhile, Prince William's personal income is six times higher than all elected heads of state in Europe combined. Surely the monarchy is outdated—time for Tony Benn’s Commonwealth of Britain bill! 👑💰📉#Monarchy #RoyalFinances #TimeForChange #FYP @DerbyChrisW
