- Comment on Would admins host a Reddit → Lemmy crossposting bot to help mods? 4 days ago:

So you want to steal their private property? Then bankrupt a lot of homeless charities by making them use very expensive buildings, then have a lot of bored people with nothing to do because they’re stuck in a country estate?

Remote apart from the hourly train to King’s Cross and being a straight drive up the A10, and being ten minutes away from King’s Lynn… Siberia would have been kinder.

- Comment on Andrew Windsor could face private prosecution, Republic says 1 week ago:
The Crown Estate is the hereditary property holdings of the Sovereign (as opposed to the holdings of the Duchy of Lancaster or the personal holdings of the individual).
If taken over by government, the taxpayer would have to fund a presidency anyway, which would likely cost more.
- Comment on Andrew Windsor could face private prosecution, Republic says 1 week ago:
There’s no “they”. The King claims money from the government in the form of the Sovereign Grant. He then disburses that money among the working royals as he sees fit.
The Sovereign Grant is in return for the King signing over the entire income of the Crown Estate to the government. The Sovereign Grant is pegged nominally at 15% of the income of the Crown Estate (currently 25% to fund the restoration of Buckingham Palace which is in bery poor condition).
So it’s a net gain as the government currently keeps 75% of the income from the Crown Estate.

The likes of Just Stop Oil want us to simply turn off the taps in the North Sea, creating the same chaos for working people that they do on our roads. It’s contemptible.
