The Queens poverty. (18)
tomcatwarne: Even the Queen is having trouble managing her budget in austerity Britain. Last month it was revealed that Queen Elizabeth II’s rainy day fund was down to its last million.
A report by the Public Accounts Committee revealed the Queen’s advisers were failing to control her finances while the royal palaces were “crumbling”. Both Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle are reported to be in urgent need of repair with staff routinely catching rain in buckets to protect art and antiques.
As recently as 2001 the Queen’s “reserve fund” was at a healthy £35million but now stands at a paltry £1million. MPs blamed the Royal Family’s advisers for overspending.
Don’t feel too sorry for the Monarch though. Queen Elizabeth II’s rainy day fund may be looking a bit lame but she’s worth a lot more than that – £320million according to the Sunday Times Rich List 2013.

No yjese things come outof her private money, except state visits where she repesents the United Kingdom, that is England, Scotland and Northern iieland, but they reckon this brings back many times in tourists.
