Queen & Royals Subsidised by EU ....

I thought she looked smug during her speech on the global economic crisis .... :lol:

The Observer, Sunday 28 December 2008 wrote:

British farmers and landowners - including the Queen and Prince Charles - are in line for a £1bn "subsidy bonanza" from Brussels in 2009 because of the dramatic fall in the value of sterling against the euro.

One of the main beneficiaries will be the Queen, who in recent years has received hundreds of thousands of pounds a year in European subsidies for her combined agricultural and land interests at her Sandringham estate and Windsor Castle. Other wealthy landowners, such as the Duke of Westminster, the Duke of Marlborough and the Earl of Leicester, are also known to receive six-figure sums.

:lol:

It is maddening though, when so many peasant farmers, whom the EU was set up to protect, have had to give up the agricultural struggle, and find alternative sources of income, whilst these over-wealthy parasites throw hunting/shooting parties on their land, then reap huge rewards for doing nothing else!
