I dont like the Royals. As for respect, if your country was smaller than Texas, you wouldn't be half the country we are. The English/Brits are some of the best stock this planet has to offer. We deserve respect for what we have done and given to the world. We also deserve shit for the wrongs we have done. Like allowing Harry to be born....either way we definatley deserve some respect - YOU speak OUR language ffs!

"national service" first of there is no national in U.K. has not been for decades,ALSO,when was the last time you heard of one of these "heros" taking a bullet for there country, grow up and live in the real world ,go and read a couple of books and learn something.

FIRST COMMENT FOR 8 MONTHS, I AM THE FUCKING MAN

[mangokiller111]

@CJ8DAY well if we were just California which is smaller than Texas we will still be a rich country with lost of people.

@CJ8DAY You have your priorities out of order. There's nothing wrong with the monarchy, it symbolises what our nation stands for in most aspects. i think you have been a bit harsh and disrespectful.

[drumgirl187]

ur such an asshole, stop acting like that guy represents all of america. see how i said you're an asshole and not all brits are assholes? yea, cuz i dont base my opinion of a whole nation on just one person

Well Prince Charles himself paid almost 3.5 million pounds in income tax last year so i think he more than pays for himself. All the Royals pay income tax so they pretty much pay their own way.

[sammymooo]

Yeah , there probably one of the main reasons people come to london , that and them also travelling promoting foreign relations there worth the relatively small ammount a year.

[808bourn11]

o okay so there more of a tourist attraction?

[sammymooo]

The money the monarchy brings in from tourism alone is more than the 15 p i think i pay a year for them.

[Tim733733]

This is utterly wrong. It actually used to be tradition for the King to be on the frontline in wars over the centuries. Prince Andrew served in the Falklands War, Harry's been frontline Afganistan and William is not 'banned' from the same, and is simply still going through training with the RAF. Harry is a British Army officer and that is more fasttrack for seeing action. They both chose to serve too, as opposed to some Royal requirement. Stupid ABC guy.

[6Gizmo101]

that is why he has like he own little sas team watching over him

what a fucking rude thing to say dumb fuck
