    Would it be better to allow it to fall into disrepair, become unsafe and then demolish it, should we do the same with Edinburgh and Windsor castle?

    Maybe we should just destroy all historic buildings to save the taxpayer a few bob?

    How much money does the ordinary taxpayer get from that white phukin elephant Hollyrood?

    Admittedly I've driven past it, but never actually went to London to look at it.

    My Mum & Dad were down in London recently for a break & didn't go to see Buckingham Palace.

    I've been to London about 25 times (mainly for work right enough) & never seen it.

    Michael Fagan certainly loved the Buck House hospitality

    I would hazard a guess Nessie brings more tourist dosh to Scotland than Lizzie does.
