Sounds like her funeral plan was just fine, it didn't cost her or Charlie a penny.

Does make you wonder why the family did not at least make a very significant contribution. Costs around security I can understand, but not the public paying for the whole thing.

Well they did provide the body.

That was certainly a fairly stiff contribution.

Is Notre Dame costing more?
I see they are still asking for donations. Maybe you should start a PFM fund for the next royal event. ?
Should go down well as usual.

Can I remind people this is an RIP thread.

Is Notre Dame owned by the Royal Family? Not sure it's a great comparison.

As if last week’s bread and circuses wasn’t expensive enough.

To put all these 'cost for royals' remarks into some perspective, here are a few sobering random figures, rounded for your convenience;
Cost of Living payments – circa 7.4million payments made over 5 days
Unemployment Payment Advancing for May Day Bank Holiday -
7,5 million payments totalling £2,7 billion
Unemployment Payment Advancing for Kings Coronation Bank Holiday –
7,7 million payments totalling £2,8 billion
Enjoy and have a good w/end. I hope she rests in peace.

Unicorns fart glitter.
I notice all the sums posted are for ‘benefits’. Knowarramean?

You mean PPE contracting to mates, donors and relatives for ludicrously high sums for PPE that didnt work and is now in expensive storage has been left out?
How about the Teeside freeport land sold for £99?
Hat Mancocks latest?
That's probably the sort of benefits he had in mind.

And two are for advance payments for Bank Holidays, not an extra expense.
The only real ‘benefit’ quoted was cost of
Living payments of 7.4 m over 5 days, which seems like good value compared to £412 m for two days
