For the coronation that is. I get a tad annoyed at those folk who are very vocal about the cost of living crisis versus money being wasted on the coronation. How they won’t watch it because of the waste of money, regardless of whether they are fans of the monarchy. The waste of money of having a royal family is also used everyday, yet as a whole, they generate more income for the country coffers than the amount the country gives them.
Another argument is that no-one wants them, not my king etc. They know this because of the lack of flags up for the coronation. Well, we like the royals, as do most people I know, most of us have not got flags up. Never done it, doesn’t mean we are anti-royal.
If you don’t like them that’s fine. Want to moan that’s fine, just get your facts straight!
Having taken the time to actually find out, here are the numbers.
Approximately £100 million will be spent. In return it will generate, for the country coffers, not less than £1 billion.
