It just made me laugh when you said they do so much for charity, like they are incredibly generous philanthropists.
That's a completely separate argument from whether or not they are a net positive to the British economy.
So I gave 2 arguments as to why we should keep the royal family.
Also I'm sure the people involved in things such as the Invictus Games are not laughing and appreciate all the help that Harry gives.
Sorry but the idea of being "born better" is just nuts in my book and should not be supported by any means in a modern democratic society
Where do any of them say they are "born better"? If anything they have to bare more burden than a lot of us do. It's not just about money.
Also how is the UK a modern democratic society? We have a tin pot dictator in charge right now so where is the democracy?
The palace of Versailles is one of the most visited places in the world, and we all know what the French did with their royals. You don't need an extant monarchy for people to want to go to beautiful old buildings filled with historical and valuable relics. Moreover, some of their residences are not open to the public and those that are have restricted access due to the royals occasionally living there. Can't tell me they'd make less tourism bucks with more things to show and longer opening hours.
But that is the whole point. It's the uniqueness of still having a monarchy that makes the UK popular to visit. The monarchy in France example is different because that was at a time when royals had power. The Queen does not have power and if anything if she stepped in right now it would be more reason to remove her and the rest of them. Hence why she doesn't say anything, I'm sure she doesn't want her head chopped off.
Edit: Anyway that is all I'm going to say on the royal issue, it is distracting away from the real problem here which is Boris.
