  1. Yes. Nothing but self serving parasites. The French had the right idea on how to deal with Royalty. If they genuinely bring in anything remotely like 2 billion then why pay them anything and fund their security? Seems like they can fund this themselves quite easily so let them. It baffles me there is still grown men defending such a disgusting organisation.
  2. Get a grip! 🤣
  3. Exactly! Leeching off of the backs of hard working taxpayers. And that’s just the RF. 🤣
  4. They're even including revenue from TV shows that have historic RF members in it. Like we have to have a Monarchy today to make a historic series like The Crown. So thats 150 million a year you can take off that list right away.
  5. Well, if Scotland gets independence perhaps we can tell the German RF to f-off?
  6. Like Fox Hunting?
  7. MI5 warning over 'Chinese agent' in Parliament WWW.BBC.COM The rare alert sent to MPs comes after a long-running investigation into Christine Ching Kui Lee. Interesting to see how deep the CCP has infiltrated the UK Government and how deep Labours noses are in the Trough as well. One of the MPs funded by Ms Lee was Labour's Barry Gardiner, who received over £420,000 from her in five years - but he said he had always made the security services aware of the donations.
  8. When you read the break down of this supposed 2 billion most if not all would still be made if the RF was disbanded completely. Thank you Ma’am: Royals earn Britain nearly £2billion a year | UK | News | Express.co.uk WWW.EXPRESS.CO.UK THE monarchy has contributed nearly £1.8billion to Britain’s economy this year.
  9. I thought we agreed that was a rather made up figure though? And looking at the statistics for the French v English Palace visitors indicates that this 'independent study' is a load of BS. People will come and have a nosey regardless. The floodgates might even open if the RF was turfed out and the public had more access. You know, like Versailles.
  10. Its not like you actually get to see the Queen and get a selfie with her is it? Im sure the Castles and Palaces would get as much visitors regardless if the RF existed or not. Just like in France. Ive long since lost any faith in the term independent consultancy as well.
  11. I always wonder who comes up with that figure and how they do so.
  12. Mine is deffo the 'side out' version. Thanks again.
  13. I can imagine William doing that. Perhaps the line in the sand was the outcome of Andrews Lawyers attempts to get the case thrown out. Now thats failed they've cut their ties. Im a bit surprised at the severity of the ostracisation though. Perhaps the RF wanted to use Andrew as a warning for Harry as well? Start towing the line or you'll get the same treatment.
  14. Or they've been handed evidence from another source. I think now that he's officially having to go to court in the US they're washing their hands of him.
  15. Damn it thats a great price! Ive used that site before as well. Its almost £100 including shipping and tax for the bit from the US. I'll see if he's happy to cancel and I'll order this one.
  16. Ah cool. I have the cylindrical one and ordered the same. Thanks for the heads-up though.
  17. Is that so? Bugger! Ive just ordered a nearly new one from the US. £40 plus shipping. Bit of a bargain (if it fits) as they're over £200 new.
  18. They seem like reliable Engines. Ive never had an issue with them but yes, spares seem a little more tricky that a Honda or Briggs.
  19. I'll drop them an email. Ive already looked on their website and they seem to just have smaller single cylinder engine mufflers. I might be better off just ordering new from the US unless someone has a used one for sale.
  20. Anyone got a muffler/Exhaust kicking about for a Kohler Command 20hp engine? Or know of a good supplier in the UK? Cheers.
  21. I had some 28” DF on my Bandsaw it had also been down a while. Was next to impossible to mill straight. Dulling bands real fast as well. I ended up just giving it back to the customer. I’m always milling or resawing seasoned/semi-seasoned Oak with no issues.
  22. He surely does. But which Tory do you think should replace him?
  23. At Would be interested in other views as well. I can’t see it being much of an issue really. Timber frames are generally made from green oak and don’t move much. Granted they’re 6”+.
