just another ignorant story.

the Queen was one of the richest people on the planet.
They did not live off the govt.

That just laughably absurd but typical of the left.

He tried to get the British to give him a military officer’s Commission prior to the revolutionary war-related “unpleasantness” and they refused.

“Most people don’t know:”


Sovereign Grant

In 1760, King George III cut a deal with parliament to hand over the Crown Estate — a large portfolio of land and property now worth $15 billion, which includes most of the U.K.’s seabed, Regent Street in London and Buckingham Palace – to the Treasury. As part of this deal, the Monarch is entitled to a share of the profits of the Crown Estate. The Queen now receives the Sovereign Grant from the Treasury, which consists of 15% of the profits from the Crown Estate. Last financial year she received $61 million, which goes to paying for royal travel, investitures, garden parties and the upkeep of official residences like Buckingham Palace.
