Why
do we put up with a society that is so torn with unbelievable
inequality? We have elderly dyeing from the cold because they can't
afford to heat their home. While just along the road a bit, there are
those dripping with jewels and finery clinking champagne glasses in
jolly merry making. Take our Royal Family, while they bank millions
from off-shore wind farms, our elderly are forced to choose between
eating or heating. Why does the Royal family make all that money from
off-shore wind farms? Well because the own the seabed and most of the
coastline around our country. It is all part of the Crown Estates.
How did they come to own all that land and sea? Well a guy who went
by the name of William the Conqueror, decided that all of England
belong to him, future monarchs thought it such a good idea they
claimed the rest of the UK. The Crown Estates is now a multi-billion
pound, money making empire and and 15% of all its profits go to the
Royal family. There is no fear of them ever loosing out if profits
fall, if by some weird and impossible event the Crown Estates didn't
make any money the Royals would not need to apply for job seekers
allowance, their income would be made up from a reserved fund.
So,
first you steal the land and then one of your off shoots, George 3,
runs up huge debts, then offers the land back on condition that he
and all his off spring, are kept in unbelievable splendour and
extravagance for all eternity. Not a bad trick if you can get away
with it, but don't try, they'd put you in the nick. Surely the land
in any country belongs to the people of that country, not to a bunch
of land grabbing parasites.
