Rejected petition Make Royals Pay the £369 million for their Palace Renovations, not the taxpayers

This is a time of financial & economic hardship with an uncertain future.The NHS is collapsing, housing & schooling in crisis & austerity forcing constant funding cuts in front line services.

The Royals have Windsor Castle, Balmoral Castle, Sandringham House etc. Sell one to fund the repairs.

More details

If the public are forced to pay, when will it end? Next up will be the crumbling, asbestos-infested palace of Westminster with repairs in excess of £3bn.
