It is in general.. but look at us leading the goddamn way on this :\ . I have no pity whatsoever for these fat slobs and will mock them openly. I also hope they die soon so I'm not stuck with the bills for their bypasses. I am completely serious. It's not funny; it's pathetic. You allow yourself to get that fat .. you did that to yourself. No one else's fault and now you've got to pay for it.
As long as you'll say that it's disgusting in general, not just here ...

Maybe not the greatest but it can be pretty damn good. With the right marketing it could probably make a lot of money. It just takes a little creativity.

Well, (I think) the Civil List is just the list of official salaries of those who work for the state. Just like a president or a PM gets a salary, etc. However, there are all kinds of ancillary costs for her and her family.. millions of pounds a year just for their security details (the Irish are a surly bunch ya' know) .. servants... upkeep of those lavish dwellings, and so forth.
What the hell, here's a Sikorsky she ordered back on '09. Her old copter.. just wasn't up to snuff apparently. The Brit taxpayer probably had to pay for this too.

Jack offs in my own country worship stuff like this, not me man... I'm not fascinated by plutocrats, thus I don't think the Kennedys are that fascinating either. Just don't tell me that "her majesty" and all that glorious paraphernalia only cost 8 million pounds a year.
alexw68: The Queen gets around £8m on the Civil List (the only Royal to do so, other than the DoE at around £335K
