We paid for Andrew's police protection, who reportedly looked the other way during his time as a trade envoy, and when he met Epstein. We paid for his protection - in more ways than one. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Charles reportedly gave Andrew £2m towards his £12m settlement. He'll have known about what Andrew did. Just don't hold your breath on him being questioned. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Andrew paid Virginia Giuffre a reported £12m settlement - and it didn't even come from him. £7m supposedly came from the Queen, £3m from Prince Philip's estate, and £2m from then-Prince Charles (which he denies). Andrew hasn't repaid a penny. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Taxpayers paid for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's police protection - officers who reportedly accompanied him to Epstein's home, and were asked to look into his accuser. It's sickening. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Charles receives £24m each year as a private income from the Duchy of Lancaster (land that should belong to us). That's 102× the President of Germany's salary. It isn't duty, it's greed. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

The monarchy costs the public an estimated £16.18 each second. That's £58k in an hour, or £1.4m in a day. The royals may be symbolic, but they have a very real cost. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Charles made £24m+ from the Duchy of Lancaster last year. That's worth 1,076 years on minimum wage. That's unacceptable. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

If we name people relying on public money as scroungers, then it's worth being honest about which institutions do the same - costing the public hundreds of millions of pounds every year. The monarchy, for one. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

A week into 2026, and we're estimated to have already spent over £10k on the monarchy. The cycle continues. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Whether the royals help tourism or not is irrelevant. It's not a reason to abandon democracy. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Our FOIs found that Lord-Lieutenants, the King's personal representatives in each county, cost over £2m in expenses last year. They're entirely ceremonial, and completely archaic. They have to go. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Christmas is a time when many families are watching every penny. And yet, the monarchy continues to cost the taxpayer an estimated £16.18 every second. The cost never takes a day off. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Happy Christmas, all! ☃️ Funnily enough, during the King's Speech at 3pm, Channel 4 will be showing the ending of Sister Act 2. Make of that what you will... #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Christmas at Sandringham is framed as a private family tradition. But the estate itself was bought in the 19th century using money increased by Parliament for royal duties. It should belong to the state. ☃️ #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Lord-Lieutenants cost the taxpayer over £2m per year. How much does yours cost? Use our interactive map to find out! ↪️ royalscostwatch.co.uk/map #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Earlier today, Royals Cost Watch revealed that the total cost of Lord-Lieutenants has reached over £2m each year. Unacceptable. To learn more, check out our press release, below. 👇 www.royalscostwatch.co.uk/cost-of-lord... #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Research by Royals Cost Watch has shown, for the first time, that the cost of Lord-Lieutenants has risen to £2m per year. 🧵 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Germany's head of state costs them £39m each year, while our royal family is estimated to cost over half a billion pounds (and they're so secret we don't even know the precise cost!). How have we got the better deal? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Watch as anti-monarchist activists are told they will be arrested if they protest on the same road as a royal procession in Windsor 🚨 The group have accused the police of 'banning' protest against the King

🔴Andrew Is Entitled to £500,000 Compensation for Losing Royal Lodge, Say Crown Estate The disgraced former Prince is unlikely to receive any payment due to the deterioration of the property, @davidhencke.bsky.social reports bylinetimes.com/2025/12/02/a...

The royal family are the ultimate scroungers. They have to go. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

As the last month of 2025 begins, our website's counter shows we've already spent an estimated £467m+ on the monarchy this year. Keep an eye on it throughout December, with the link in bio! #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

🔺 EXCLUSIVE: The King’s brother, Prince Edward, enjoys his Surrey mansion at a peppercorn rent, it can be revealed, after The Times forced the disclosure of documents held by the Crown Estate

Small sums for very wealthy people and about 150,000 homes are worth over £2 million so that's hundreds of millions for the exchequer. But bear this in mind - King Charles won't pay a penny on his many homes which are mostly worth far more than that.

The Chancellor tells us difficult decisions will be taken this Budget - but she's ignoring the millions we spend on the monarchy every year. Here's what we could fund instead. 🧵 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Now shipping, ready for Black Friday: the UK monarchy, for only half a billion. What a deal. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Despite supposedly being "private estates", the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall don't pay corporation tax. If they did, taxpayers would be £12.8m better off every year. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

King Charles is reportedly giving Andrew Windsor a six-figure sum and an annual allowance. It's said to be out of his "private income" - but in reality, it comes from his Duchy's rent on public land. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

So, Andrew's punishment is costing the taxpayer, not him. Really? Is this justice? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

You know what's really scary this Halloween? Just how much we spend on the monarchy, that's what. 👻 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

So Andrew's no longer a prince. He's had to leave his mansion (in exchange for another). But when will we see him behind bars? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Despite what the royal family would like you to think, royal patronages have been proven not to have any effect on charities' income. Another reason to replace them. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Disgraced royal Prince Andrew won't be evicted from his Royal Lodge despite not paying rent for 22 years. We asked a lawyer to explain.

Latest @theguardian.com cartoon www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The Times found that Prince Andrew pays a "peppercorn" rent for his Royal Lodge mansion - during a cost of living crisis, and despite everything he's done. He has to go. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Prince Andrew’s rent since 2003 vs your rent since 2003: a comparison buff.ly/xz6jrqx

The funds for Andrew's £12 million payout came from the Queen's Duchy of Lancaster - using public land and the public's rent. Our money, paying for royal scandals. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

I think we know the answer: our taxes. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Andrew's given up his royal titles. Don't suppose we could have Royal Lodge back too, while you're at it? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Our king is exploiting the Crown Estate - property of the public - for profit, not green energy or lower energy bills for us. It's time we took back the Estate for good. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

William is charging the taxpayer £1.5m a year for HMP Dartmoor - which is currently closed indefinitely over dangerously high radon levels. Is this the head of state we want? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

William says he wants to change the monarchy when he's king. Why not start with the spiralling costs? We've taken the liberty of selecting a few he could start with... 🧐 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

£52,800 of taxpayer money to change some flags. The beauty of our head of state being used purely as a soft power prop, and nothing more, ladies and gentlemen. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Pretty sure this is William's idea of modernising the monarchy. And here we were thinking cutting down on costs was the solution! #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Despite the Duchy of Cornwall being owned by the nation, it gives William almost £24m in profits every year. This isn't right. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

On the Queen's passing, Charles should have paid over £260m in inheritance tax. But he didn't - the monarch is exempt. It's one rule for them, another for the public. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Charles made more than £1m selling land for HS2 from his duchy, at the cost of the taxpayer. Do you still think he has our best interests at heart? #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It costs a family almost 3× more to visit Buckingham Palace than the Palace of Versailles in France - even though very little is actually open to the public at the former. Our taxes aren't enough for them. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Let's hear it from someone else now - the monarchy costs an estimated half a billion pounds each year. This can't go on. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing
