The answer? Over half a billion pounds a year.
That's a lot of money.
Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to visualise. To portray just how much that is, I created Royals Cost Watch to break that down, alongside various other royal figures, such as Charles' income, so you can watch them increase by the second in increasing despair (!). You can also get a perspective of how much that is to you with our income comparer, and our presentation of what else we could fund with half a billion.
Royals Cost Watch is also on social media, working to spread our message even further in an engaging and attractive manner.
