The British tourism agency has reported that the royal family generates close to 500 million pounds, or about $767 million, every year in tourism revenue, drawing visitors to historic royal sites like the Tower of London, Windsor Castle, and Buckingham Palace. The country's tourism agency says that of the 30 million foreign visitors who came to Britain in 2010, 5.8 million visited a castle .
I'd say they were worth keeping as the revenue they attract far outweighs the cost of having them.
Is it they or the castles and palaces that generate the revenue? Castles and palaces which incidentally were built and/or paid for from ill-gotten taxes from a long-past (thank goodness) era.

I can not speak for God the creator known as Jehovah, Yahweh, etc....
The god of this world is currently Lucifer. So you need to take this up with him.

We need to change the world and we need to do it by dismantling the old way of things.
How weak is your country if you feel the UK monarchy is holding you back? Lol.
I do not support a constitutional monarchy but consider it as a mild distraction, I feel for your poor nation waiting for us to get rid of them before you can grow

Well the queen was born in England...
As were her parents...
There is at least 6 generations that are English...
German blood has nothing to do with it...

Id say a lot of folk come because of the Royal Family not just the Castles. If it was just the architecture then there are plenty of other bueatiful cites in Europe with Palaces and Castles but no Royalty - France for an example

God save the queen? I think the German queen who rules over the UK can take care of herself. Being the richest dictator in the world!
I believe God should take care of the poor and sick and forget these wannabe monarchs who parade around in diamonds and jewels. A waste of tax payers money! Turn Buckingham palace into a retirement home for the needy. Return all property that you have stolen from other nations.
I say we start with England first!

Chateau Versailles is said to get about six million visitors per year. They haven't had a king for a while.
It would make sense that people visit England to see a queen they can't see - human beings are often known to display incredibly bizarre logic and reason.

And here you go again with your preaching..... something tells me your posts is about to be removed for being off topic AGAIN!
No one here has turned this thread ugly other than you, first you say the Scots have all been brainwashed, then you start slagging off our Queen, then you use scripture to make a point that no one here seems to get. Surely MODS there should be a temporary posting ban when you have more than 10 posts and a thread closed in less than so many hours.

Lets agree to disagree, I have no idea what your beef is against us today, but I have seen you in another thread today debating with some loonatic so I'll put it down to you're in a hissy mood at the moment after dealing with them. I know this is the case with me sometimes, I argue in one thread and bring it into another, my partner has told me to stay off ATS because I start getting balshy with them! bad me

As i said to you in another thread before it got closed down, you are a wolf in sheep's clothing. You are by far the furthest thing from A Christian I have seen on this site, and yet you proclaim your faith with your avatar and your copied and pasted biblical passages. As I said to you in the other forum that you "Fled from", just because you copy and paste scripture does not get you a ticket to heaven.
