King Charles pay rise. Where from? 14:19 - Jul 24 with 564 viewsReslovenSwan1

The King is due to receive a $60m pay rise this year. This rise is mostly for increased profits at the Crown Estates and most of the profits are from off shore wind farms.

A large percentage of offshore wind farms are in offshore Wales. We citizens have to put up with the turbines and pylons and the King pockets the profits.

The Senedd asked for parity with Scotland on this I but it was declined. Many Welsh people do not want to control their assets and the money goes to the south east.

I read that the King took 25% of offshore wind fees. I read somewhere ha had agreed a reduction to half that Offshore wind fes for England and Wales could be £400m with Wales perhaps 25% of that.

It shows how dumb civil servants are. They offered him 25% of fees for offshore wind farms s just as they were expanding massively. Unfit for their position s and pensions.

The Senedd gets it both barrels while these elite London civil servants are left alone.

Oh yeah, nobody ever complains about Westminster! What a preposterous thing to say.

Besides, Wales provides about 16% of UK offshore electricity, around 7.9TwH compared to the Uk as a whole of 49twH which is about 17% of the total electricity used in the UK.

I specifically reference Senior Civil servants not Westminster as a whole. Remember they are unelected.

This is not worth a thread in itself but it does highlight the fact that in relation to the monarchy we are living in the distant past.

A couple of weeks ago on the news they were reporting on the annual population count of the King's swans.

I have to emphasise here, THIS IS NOT A JOKE.

There's a bloke called the King's Swans counter (or something stupidly similar). Every year one of his jobs is to conduct a count of the swans along a particular stretch of the Thames. Because, apparently, they belong to the King.

This is not the 14th/15th/16th century. It's the 21st century. Why are we, the British people, so stupid that we put up with this absolute garbage.

I disagree. This issue is worth a thread. Profits of our natural resources are not being shared with Welsh people.

19th century. Coal copper iron
20 th Century. Water
21st Century Wind

The king owns fees from Wind off Porthcawl. The Senedd dare not block new ones.

I saw a documentary by PBS the USA public channel stating that The depose King Edward the 8th was actually spying for the Nazis after inspecting the Allied front lines.

He certainly had sympathies and I don’t have any doubt he was thick enough to blab certain things to friends. Loose lips sink ships and all that but the notion he was an active spy is just conspiracy nonsense.

Based on your figures England and Wales produces 29twH 60% of the total for UK as roughly 40% is produced in Scotland which has taken over from Crown Estates.

8TwH/ 29TwH is 27% for Wales alone.

Given Prince Charles has nabbed a £45m pay rise mostly from Wind farms we Welsh could have expected that to come to the Senedd. That would amount to £12.1m. Remember this is the increase not the total.

In all Crown estate money as a increase came to Wales the increase alone wound be around £50m, Lets assume for argument the increase hase been 100%. (conservative). This means Wales might be due £100m per year.

It is sad 'Forum Anglos' want to close Rhoose airport while the "establishment" are using wales as a resources cash cow.

They are the ones that have nothing to say about they king harvesting £100m at least from Welsh wind farms yet demanding Rhoose airport support stops and the place shut down. I am not impressed with them at all.

4000 Welsh jobs depend on it. Good jobs not the ones polluting our children like Tata Steelworks was.

I do not comment on a the personality of other posters or call people pathetic. I keep my thoughts on personality to myself and do not look for mates for back up like you do.
