    The money from the Royal Estate (15% per year) is meant to be used on maintenance and repairs. Which it was neglected. In fact, it has been suggested previously that if the Palace was open to Tourism across the year bar special occasions, this would be able to fund the repairs and maintenance too, but this was refused by the Royal Family. Instead, they are going to get 25% per year. Which means less money out of everyone elses budgets due to Royal Mismanagement.

    I am also aware of the so called 'Pro-Monarchy' economic argument that usually contains a ton fallacies such as returning the entire Royal Estate from the Treasury back into the now Ex-Monarchies hands (I mean.. really?).
