[quote:Anonymous Coward 964991:MV8xMjAwMjU1XzE5NDk2NjcyXzg4RTk1NEFB] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1107952] ha ha ha.. nice. Naturally it's not like she doesn't have the money, she's just playing the game, and getting free stuff. Megacorporations, and rich people are the worst welfare queens. Wonder how long england will be a monarchy? the pound is dropping. A long time. The vast majority of British sheeple love the German-Greek monarchy! :rofl: [/quote] please tell me you're joking.

Original Message
The Queen asked ministers for a poverty handout to help heat her palaces but was rebuffed because they feared it would be a public relations disaster, documents disclosed under the Freedom of Information Act reveal.
Royal aides were told that the £60m worth of energy-saving grants were aimed at families on low incomes and if the money was given to Buckingham Palace instead of housing associations or hospitals it could lead to "adverse publicity" for the Queen and the Government.
