British royals: £ 130 million for the palace and new helicopter
The British Royals can look forward to an enlarged financial scope, which will increase to £ 130 million (around 155 million euros) in the coming year. The reason for this extraordinary increase in the "Soverägn Grant" lies in the severely increased income of the Crown Estate, a area of tension between real estate assets and economic rights on the British mainland base.
profit from renewable energies
A significant contribution to these income comes from the expansion of offshore wind farms in the North Sea. While the Royal share of these revenues of 12 percent was reduced, the majority of the growth remains in the pot for the royal family. This shows how modern economic trends combine with the traditional institutions of the British royal family.
Königshaus and renovation projects
The new money blessing is not only an enrichment, but is being invested in the renovation of the Buckingham Palace, which has been running for years. The renovation work is complex and costly because the palace plays a central role in public life and in the representation of the royal family.
additional expenses through official obligations
In addition to the renovation costs, there are also two new AGUSTAWESTLAND AW139 helicopters on the shopping list of the royal family. These are intended to replace the aging Sikorsky helicopter with which the Royals travel to their numerous official dates.high costs of the crowning glory
The expenses for the royal family are not just infrastructure and transport. The crowning glory of King Charles III. alone resulted in costs of £ 800,000 (around 950,000 euros), with security costs and military investments not included. These high expenses throw a shadow on the house situation in terms of financial responsibility and the use of public funds.
public reactions and financial responsibility
The question of financial handling and transparency is of crucial importance in public. The high price for the state visit in Kenya, which cost over £ 166,000 (almost 200,000 euros), causes discussions among the taxpayers. It remains to be observed to what extent the royals use these new financial means and whether they can find the balance between tradition and modern responsibility in their financial policy.
