Even so Zaphod, royal money should fund the royal yacht ?
Then they can use it for whatever they want ??
I doubt that they actually want one?

Hi

We have just scrapped the Queen's Flight.

Boris got himself a new plane as a result.

If we have £180 million to spare, two new coastal protection vessels to stop the migrants.

Re: Tribute to Philip.= New yacht !!

Perhaps one of the Russian oligarchs could give them one of their spares?

There is already a tall ship adapted for the disabled; it's called the Lord Nelson. Do we need another?
