They didn’t do anything wrong tbf. If a man wants to give accommodation to his nieces, let him.

Is it tax money, or money he was paid then he is paying out?
I mean its a technical difference and I am not really defending anything, I just don’t know how it works really.

The King owns land called the crown estate. He surrenders the profit to the treasury who then pays him back a small fraction of, which he also pays tax on.
The King does not get funded by tax money, just a small portion of what his family’s land makes.

There is no evidence to suggest that Charles III is a paedophile. If you need to lie and slander to support your argument, you don’t have one to begin with.

They’re Andrews daughters, no one mentioned Charles. But also fuck that whole family, they all should have been executed a long time ago.
