    Sorry to intrude upon the 'Royal' debate with the latest facts and figures,

    Crown Estate contribution to the Treasury...£343 million.
    Treasury contribution to royal building maintenance, mostly Buckingham Palace...£33 million
    Sovereign Grant contribution to converting Frogmore Cottage into a house for the Duke and Duchess of Suffolk...£2.4 million.

    Draw your own conclusions.
