French Carriage

I have a question about the government of the U.K. How much money would be saved by the government if?

there was no longer a queen. I was watching the honor guard or whatever you call them around the queen when the French president was there and just the uniforms, care for them, the horses, care for them, and the carriages, and the care for them must be very expensive. And keeping up the castle, the pay the queen receives, etc. I am from the U.S., so please excuse any thing I might have asked that was rude.

Nothing - The Duchy of Cornwall and all its estates are run as a business and consequently pays taxes to the Treasury. The government pays for the Queen and (now) only immediate members of her family via the Civil List as it is called. The amount I think is about £35 million, this is used to pay for State visits to and from the UK and all other incidentals. This amount of money has not been increased in quite a number of years - not even allowing for inflation.

The Duchy paid to the Treasury, the year before last, £130 million in taxes - net gain £95 million.

Hope you are enjoying your time in the UK.
