Closed petition Do not fund portraits of His Majesty the King for public organisations
Closed on
This Government should scrap the plans to fund a portrait of King Charles for public organisations, such as schools, police stations etc. The Government has set aside £8 million for this, at a time when so much of our country is struggling.
There are many more worthy things to spend £8 million on:
- the NHS
- the education system
- help for households across the country with the cost of living
- Business support
- Public services
This money should not be used to fund portraits that are not essential. This is wasteful.
