As you can tell

I am an abolitionist.

I want to scrap the Monarchy.

A friend, Sammy C saw me as odd, as an RAF Veteran and as someone who does churchcrawling as a hobby. So as apparently conventional as they come, and yet against the Monarchy.

I feel I cannot epress this on scial media, as on Facebook I would be seen as stepping on former colleague's feelings. One has posted as much. And Twitter, many friends are logging every day with some post about Her Maj, and with each hour that goes by, and complaining about those who do not share their view.

So much ignorance.

They say.

I never had much truck with them, but it was in 2011 when we visited Windsor Castle, and in one room was this grand dolls house, all fitted with top of the line mineature furniture, tiny axminster carpets, electric lights and so on and on. This was made with no expense sapred, when the rest of the country was suffering the great depression. Probably costing more than a row hof houses for a working class family, or enough to pay the wages of a town for a year.

For a dolls house.

This week, King Charles inherited his Mother's fortune. Tax free. Probably as much as half a billion pounds.

Our money. Paid with our taxes.

He will move into Buckingham Palace, Windsor, Sandringham and Balmoral.

All his. Tax free.

Today, most of the staff at the Prince of Wale's official residence, Clarence House, were served with redundancy notices.

Nice.
