A royal financial statement issued Thursday disclosed that the monarchy will soon see a reduction in public funding. It also clarified that Charles III and Queen Camilla will not be relocating to Buckingham Palace, deviating from long‑held tradition.
The palace will continue in every traditional way to be the beating heart of the monarchy, just not its resting head.
It will be a buzzing hive of royal activity in every other way.
It is and will remain monarchy HQ, the crown jewel of our national buildings, with the sovereign's standard flying proudly from the roof whenever his majesty is in London.
If they're open and as transparent as possible, then the contrast with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor becomes all the greater.
The reality is that the king is completely unlike any other taxpayer, and the boundary between personal assets and crown assets is very wobbly. So it's far from clear he should receive the same privacy.
