I applaud the Queen's sense of duty and wish her well for many years to come. I have no problems with a Monarchy as a Head of State, a link to our past.
How much do the British royals contribute to the UK economy?
Overall, in 2018, the British royals contributed £595m via tourism, merchandise and the arts, while costing £165m. This, apparently, makes them 18 times more profitable than Belgium’s royals, and an amazing 29 times more than the Spanish monarchy. In the past five years, in fact, they have contributed £2.8 billion to the UK economy.
