Rejected petition Stop the refurbishment of Buckingham Palace on taxpayers money.
According to the BBC the UK Taxpayer is going to foot a £370m refurbishment of Buckingham Palace.
All this whilst we are under sever austerity and pensioners AND ex forces go without. Not to mention low income families sufering. Lets stop this nonsense.

This is a absolute disgrace and should not be allowed. Buckingham Palace is open to the public and this refurbishment should be paid for by the Queen herself and the visitors she has every year. It is a clear misuse of public funding that could be put to much better things.
When the rest of the UK is struggling it is unfair!
