King Charles & Prince William’s estates avoid tax, charge the NHS £11.4M for ambulance storage & force tenants to live with damp, mould & fuel poverty.
The monarchy clearly lives in another world.
How much longer will we allow such privileges?
It’s time to rethink the system.
The net worth of the British royal family is estimated at £22billion, according to Forbes.
King Charles’ own wealth of over £2billion is independent of this.
The Crown Estate is valued at about £16billion.
Why don’t we give this cash to the NHS instead?
Put that on a bus!
Your reminder that 4.3 million children currently live in poverty in the UK
Heres a picture of King Charles with his crown jewels worth £5 Billion... #Dispatches
The Royals make millions in profit each year, but this has always been shrouded in secrecy, until now.
A joint @C4Dispatches and @thetimes investigation reveals that the King and Prince William are receiving public money through leasing property to public services like the NHS.
Depressing news that Govt may approve bee-killing pesticide despite election promise to ban it - & outrageous that British Sugar has applied to use neonics for 5th year, despite industry commitment to end reliance in 2023. Govt must act to protect bees 🐝 https://t.co/kOJYWgWvey
I’m not buying this line of argument. Johnson knew, as everybody in the Conservative Party knew, that the Brexit referendum was about heading off the (over-stated) electoral threat from UKIP and simultaneously dealing with a fringe group of MPs in the party who were a distraction and wouldn’t shut up. Nobody, Johnson included, thought the country would actually vote for it. There was never going to be a White Paper because nobody sensible could think of anything to put in it. The expectation was that the electorate would sort the Conservative Party’s internal squabbles out for them by decisively rejecting it and all would be well. As an aside, we have the choice of continuing with this failed non-policy or not, and the current government have chosen to continue with it. I would love to see a White Paper laying out the case for staying out of the single market and customs union.
Apparently over 80,000 people had registered to vote by 10am which is a bit of a record. Let's keep breaking records. You can only vote for the party you support if you register. Pls RT. RT like the wind.
Please follow and RT if you won’t be voting for the Conservatives next month.
We need help to raise awareness of the damage they have done to our NHS so that our health service can finally begin to recover.
97%+ of over 65s are registered to vote. Only 2/3s of 18-24 year olds are on the register. If you turn 18 on or before 4th July you can register to vote right now.
Do not lose your democratic birthright! It matters so much.
It only takes 5 minutes.

URGENT! Pls share. The last chance to register to vote in the General Election is 11.59pm tomorrow Tue 18 June. Potentially 8m aren't registered at their current address. Here's 4 key facts...
1) You can do it online here https://t.co/i4FhJoAXfK
2) It's good for your finances. Not being on electoral roll can make it more difficult to be accepted for credit products like bank accounts or mortgages.
3) You can opt out of the 'Open Register' (which allows your info to be sold on) which will stop you getting junk mail marketing )
4) You'll need ID when you do vote (not to register) if you don't have it, you can get it free until Wed 26 June https://t.co/9bfL3hw3CV
Did you know that if you're a British citizen living abroad, you're eligible to vote in the upcoming GE no matter how long you've been out of the country?
(They scrapped the 15-year time limit.)
Please spread the word.
