Scotland Yard agrees it’s fine to bribe King Charles
If you have a suitcase of cash, you can buy a CBE
Scotland Yard has dropped an investigation into King Charles following ridiculous cash-for-honours allegations. The investigation concluded bribery is how all honours are awarded, apart from the ones awarded through blackmail.

British police drop probe against King Charles' charity

#KingCharles #UnitedKingdom

Well, here's an interesting international comparison from the FT:

Without a radical change in funding levels it looks like #KingCharles will remain the most expensive #monarch in #Europe.

Much of his money comes from his cut of the Crown Estate's income from offshore licenses, but #taxpayers are still paying a lot even after recent reform.

So is the Royal Family worth so much more to us than other monarchies?

Well, #tourism will be doing the heavy lifting in positive answers to that Q.!

#KingCharles is getting the hungry children's money
Thankfully, we have our priorities in order

If you were concerned the country can’t find the money to feed #HungrySchoolChildren, you will be delighted we’ve found the money to increase King Charles’ Universal Credit by 45%. Charles, the UK’s biggest ever #welfare recipient, will receive £125 million a year, which is what the average household needs to cope with the after-effects of Liz Truss.

The king’s [68.8%] #PayRise: there is no justification for handing over more millions -

The latest deal between the #Treasury and the palace shows why the cosy system created by #DavidCameron should be scrapped

What’s behind #KingCharles’s bumper [68.8%] #PayRise? #Greed, #lies and a ton of #PublicMoney

The #CrownEstate no more belongs to the #monarch than No 10 does to #RishiSunak. So why such a huge #handout?

You may be interested to know that the #CrownEstates #windfarm boom that has seen its profits escalate considerably has prompted a halving of the proportion paid to the #Monarchy from 25% down to 12%....

the increased share of the profits going to the Treasury will be used (in #KingCharles words) for ' the wider public good'....

Where that money goes is anyone's guess, but don't expect it to fund #NHS or #teachers pay, just yet...

#KingCharles to receive huge [68.8%] #PayRise from #UK #taxpayers

Details published by #Treasury show #RoyalFamily’s grant is expected to increase from £86m to £125m in 2025

A 45% pay rise for King Charles, and he didn’t even need to strike

Meanwhile elite wage #inflation continues apace:

The CEO of Crown Estates has received a pay rise over the last three years that from his arrival in the role has seen his pay triple!!!

But, hey, nothing to see here.

Of course, there's lots of 'justification' trotted out to counter criticism, but it just suggests as so often (at the least) #KingCharles has a tin ear for #politics & more seriously, whatever the pious words the #monarchy is detached from our reality!

#KingCharles’s property manager’s pay rise comes despite pledge to use income for ‘benefit of the nation’

#FredPellerin : Fantastic guy, really interested and curious, same with #JonathanPryce
#KingCharles makes you go wow with how efficient he is.

#PrincessKate, not a hero of mine but the most stunning woman I've ever seen

Maybe instead of calling for the arrest and prosecution of climate protestors at elite sports events, the king should call for the arrest and prosecution of industry moguls who are the most responsible for the climate crisis we are in?

Well done @patrickharvie for putting it so well:

"A genuinely extraordinary attempt to lavish your money, our money, on some of the wealthiest people, not just in this country, but some of the wealthiest people in the world"

Ah, so #KatherineGrainger ex-rower🚣 is going to be wielding the pointy stick/sword at today's Royal event in #Edinburgh with #KingCharles. Katherine was famous for winning her #Olympic gold🥇in the double sculls. Is she no gonny need a sword on both sides of her?

Good morning Edinburgh. It's a busy day in the city. Here's today's Edinburgh Minute ⏰: Wednesday 5 July 2023
