History of Ideas? Here is an idea. Get a degree so you can support yourself. Let the British public take you OFF the payroll.

The palaces would need upkeep and regular work regardless of whether they had royals in them or not. It reads to me like this money went to structural work while decorative work was paid for by the Queen. Since the building itself is owned by the nation and not the Queen then any structural work should be paid for by tax. I'm okay with it as long as it was structural work on the building itself. I'd also rather St. James Palace not sit empty and neglected.
