Ohhh never thought about it that way. Anyway...By the time we run out of stuff there must be a royal family out of work and looking for a job somewhere.

Sorry, I just don't get it.
We have plenty to live for we are just richer with tradition and our royals.

I shouldn't be complaining. I'm being paid by the government for simply sitting around in my mini palace doing nothing.

Why can't they just move to Windsor or Balmoral for a bit?

I know! The royals and their hangers on can all move into the house of commons while Buck house is being done up, then the MPs can move into Buck house while the house of commons is being renovated. QED
