    I’m all for the crown estate being treated as their private property, let’s then see a nice chunk of inheritance tax come off of that.

      I’m all for taking it all fully back and not giving them a penny.

        I think anything they can’t prove they earned, like with a p60 and a bank account trail they lose. Any money them simply made from owning shit, well, that’s ours that is.

        They can go on universal credit until they get jobs in Asda, if Asdas will take em.

        Indeed, one more travesty for the pile.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
