Another couple given free home
33 Answers
After the recent row about the couple with 12 children given an 8 bedroom home, it seems another couple have been given a free home in London.
It is a Mrs Elizabeth Windsor and her husband Phillip.
It seems the whole family live on benefits and hand-outs and none of them have a job.
What is worse is that he is an immigrant, and it was an arranged marriage !.
All their children have grown up and left home so it is a surprise they need such a large house.
The couple live in the house rent free, and in fact the government pays them to live there.
Because of their age they have been given live-in staff who do everything for them, cook their food, clean up for them and so on.
So many people come to stand outside and stare into the house that armed guards have been placed around the house.
What is worse, it also turns out that the couple already rent a large house in Windsor and own other houses in Norfolk and Scotland.
Many people feel they should give up some of their homes, and perhaps the family should not rely so much on benefits.
Mrs Windsor refused to comment.

LLoyds of London, there's another long established institution making a net gain for the country.Let's get rid of that as well. A bit old hat now.
A modern democratic country. Exactly why we still have a monarchy. There isn't a political party that has been elected to government that has included a policy to get rid of the royals in their manifesto. Not likely to be seen as it's a sure vote loser.

Not sure how we have leapt from democracy and the basis of Government to Insurance. You misunderstand if you think I want to see the back of the monachy just because it is 'old'. It is because I cannot vote them out if they do a rubbish job. If you ask how many people want Charles to be their monach you get a small number of takers.

Makes me furious,when did british citizens become second class citizens,my partner works his a**e off and we only just manage to pay everthing,and live in a 2 bedroom flat with 2 kids with no garden.People like that do it cos they know they can,our country lets it happen.Why wont government see this and give british citizens what they need. My kids would love a garden,instead it goes to immigrants every time. Makes me angry and hurt and demoralised,its so degrading that our own government lets this happen.Theres no hope for this country as long as things like this happen
I believe they've said they'll go if the people want them to go. But the plain truth is nobody much seems to want them to go. Even I, the Pol Pot of East Cheam, can't be bothered storming the barricades. I'd sooner pay my 60p a year, or whatever it now is, to support her than Queen Jade Goody who would otherwise be elected by We The People.
It could all change. Brenda has a lot of stored-up affection from the public, Charles much less, so public opinion could turn sharply. But that may not be for another 20 years.

Oh dear here we go again, having to explain the obvious to one who is a little slow on the up-take.
Of course I know that they are full British citizens. i was just sarcastically answering NJOK when he ask me if there was a racist angle to this. Please try and keep up.
In your everlasting quest to somehow seek out the racist, you let one slip through by leewayne and I quote, ' makes me furious,when did british citizens become second class citizens, My kids would love a garden,instead it goes to immigrants every time.' Could be true, but could also be classed as racist by some.

Oooh, grumpy! Hasn't the nurse changed your position recently? Bedsores playing up or something?
Anyway... it was entirely obvious you were joking, hence an equally facetious reply on my part. I shall signal any future attempts at humour with "[ANOTHEOLDGIT ALERT - DEBATABLY HUMOUS MATERIAL AHEAD]" to alert you to its presence. I trust this is an acceptable way of moving our relationship forwards?
Incidentally, since LeeWayne hadn't posted until after I last did... er... how could I have 'missed' it? [ANOTHEOLDGIT ALERT - DEBATABLY HUMOUS MATERIAL AHEAD]
For reference, I tend to exist within a forward -moving spacetime continuum.
