I'm pretty sure the posh schools are a bit different to normal ones and he won't change for a few years yet, but I could be wrong
 
They sit the pre-test in year 6 and then based on those results decide where to firm for year 9, so transfer to senior school at 13. Sometimes a parent might have always hoped for a particular school but if the pre-test result isn’t right there’s time to choose another school.
 


Sometimes I think in Harry’s efforts to vindicate Diana he ends up down playing what happened to her. They convinced her Prince Edward had HIV, that Charles and Tiggy were having a baby, William wore voice recording devices and showed her fake invoices that people around her were being paid off. She didn’t know who or what to believe and it led her to paranoia, that’s not a dirty word to say, it shows the grotesque nature of how she was treated. A lot of the people around her that were effected by it say she was paranoid, but he’s saying she wasn’t, probably one of the people who knew the least of what was happening at the time.
 
I don’t understand why he makes out like paranoid is a dirty word. Of course she was paranoid, who wouldn’t be after everything they had told her and made her believe?! It’s interesting because back when the Bashir stuff was finalised, William said something along the lines of “he directly led to the paranoia my mother felt in her final weeks” or something like that in his statement. I remember because it caused uproar with the Diana and Sussex stans that he would call his mother paranoid. Its interesting that Harry directly comes out now with that, almost like he has been fed lines by a savvy PR person who knows what certain segments will want to hear…

An extra 45 million to do nothing while NHS workers are going to food banks.... The mind boggles!!!!

Crown estate profits increased from £443million to £1.1billion, the treasury benefited from over half a billion extra in their pockets from that to help the NHS and people struggling with food banks, but let’s lead with £45million increase.
 
Harry is not only paranoid, but mentally ill as well as refusing to ever take responsibility for his actions and behavior.

His mother imo was quite the same and people like Bashir wielded that against her quite easily. To Harry, Mummy is a sainted angel who was martyred and now he can be Meghan's white knight; he didn't see her that often (despite her PR as Best Mum Ever), barely knew her, barely remembers her if what he says is correct, and so creates this construct in his head. Not to mention the Diana card sells brilliantly in the US where people think she is a saint.

I overheard a conversation at Buckingham Palace today in the cafe about how Diana was a loving, kind, perfect woman and she died because the royals hated her. Harry left to protect Meghan because they (I don't know who 'they' are, the BRF who bent over backwards to please her?) were going to off her too. Facepalm.
 
William has removed Camilla’s sister from the payroll.

‘Annabel Elliot, 75, has been paid several hundred thousand pounds for her services over the last two decades. She was employed by the King, then Prince of Wales, as chief designer of his estates following his 2005 marriage to Queen Camilla, her elder sister.
Since then, she has enjoyed an annual cash injection for her work on the Duchy holiday cottage portfolio, decorating and updating its attractive period properties in Cornwall, Wales and the Isles of Scilly…The Duchy’s annual accounts detail how she had been paid “in the normal course of business and on an arm’s length basis” varying amounts ranging between £19,625 and £82,272 to maintain its rental properties as well as the Duchy offices and its plant nursery.
She was reimbursed additional amounts each year, ranging from £7,160 to £90,285, for the purchase of furniture, furnishings and retail stock.’

All is not lost as Charles will employ her to work ad hoc on Balmoral and Buckingham Palace.

Where are you getting the half billion figure from? You know they don't pay tax on those figures??!

I no world do the royal family deserve tax payers money when the country is in the state it's in

I thought that the income is generated and given to the Treasury then the royal family gets an amount given back to them. Currently around 25% of it I think, but due to drop back down to around 12% I think.

Am I right in thinking George will be changing school after the summer. Have they announced which school?

Lots of rumours around our way that he is coming to Oundle public school in Northamptonshire. Journalists have been sniffing around the town,but I am sure every suitable school has been fuelling the rumours. I think security wise he is probably certain to go to Eton.

There is more money put into the Sovereign Grant for a couple of years now and this will last till 2027 or 2029 if I am not mistaken. It has been set up to help cover the extensive 10 year renovation at BP, which costs around £369 million pounds. It’s easy to Google. Afterwards this extra money will go away again. At least that’s the plan. We all know that the ones in power are good to hold on to such stuff. But this money would have been used for BP in every instance. Every country (aka the taxpayers) pays to have a representative building that’s is the official „home“ and office of the HoS (if they actually live there (like BP and the White House) or not (Bellevue in GER for example). Of course an extensive renovation is a long term and highly expensive project. So in no way would that money have gone to the NHS or schools or similar. The difference is just that it’s on the Sovereign Grant budget and not completely on the budget of some ministry. I am pretty sure the government could find money to put into the NHS- but it’s not as if they would look into their on benefits first is it….
