About this deal

What I find surprising is that, as public servants, they are not held to the same standard of ethics as any other civil servant or member of government. But most of them are a load of corrupt horse shit, fuelled by political favours, donations and those who are best kept quiet, lest they scare the horses.

Well, with the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and the coronation of Charles III, this book is still or even more timely, I guess. We hear of the distinction between monarchy and state and learn of the blurred lines concerning the ownership and control of the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall. Baker also considers the wider role the royals play in society, including the link with House of Lords reform, and the constitutional position of the monarch, which is important given Prince Charles's present and intended approach. To a Canadian who has always held a positive if low-key view of Queen Elizabeth II, Norman Baker's exposé of palace finances is a stunning revelation. In the stillness of winter, they began an extraordinary journey of repair, rediscovering the depths of their brotherhood, one gradual step at a time.Norman Baker's book should be a must-read for high school and university students, and for any one else already out in the world who thinks the royals are 'value for money'. Production: Our production team work closely with designers to ensure everything on screen can be translated to a printed book. They used to get away with all their trying to hold back transparency and modernity and protecting themselves from the results of scandalous behaviour because the press was deferential. Royal Families in Spain, the Netherlands and Denmark all make do with two palaces each; the UK Royal Family has 15 palaces plus Balmoral, Sandringham and those owned by the Duchy of Cornwall. Publishers may be made up of divisions or publishing houses, which are like small companies within a larger company.

It will be interesting to see how this parasitic institution fares after the present Queen's passing. In spite of worsening global warming, a global financial crises they remain immune and are continue to be subsidised and enriched, granting themselves impunity in almost any situation that pleases them, when it pleases them. If you're starting a new business or you're the rebel inside, it's not enough to shake things gently.

A system based on merit may not sound like a revolutionary concept, but if taken to its logical conclusion, would cut off from future honours those, who would be given them only because of birthright and their place in society, including, of course, members of the royal family.If we were to see a mob of scroungers who ripped off their country to such a degree anywhere else in the world, we would laugh in pity and condescension. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Reuben and Manni for telling me this wonderful intimate and loving story.
