The First & Second World War were a profitable time for the Windsors with many soldiers killed in action & dying intestate. Rather than give the money to veterans charities, they kept the money for themselves. The sums involved are said to be around £60 Million.

Andrew was second in line to the throne right up until Charles and Diana had their first son. If Charles had died before having a child, Andrew would be king now. That's the insanity of having a hereditary head of state.

Compared to England, 🏴 is much more interested in news about our nation. But we are much less likely to turn to the BBC to get it. And yet we get charged the same licence fee for this public broadcaster, and our Government has no control over it.

Trump is now openly talking about “nationalising” elections and moving towards a system where the government is in charge of the voting. He yearns to be like his good pal Putin and will get his wish if people keep focusing on other issues. We’re sleepwalking into the death of democracy. Wake up!

Arguably the bigger story is that Labour in England cross-subsidises their Scottish branch office with campaign funds vastly higher than any Scottish party could afford. It's hardly democratic.
