        In the same week when it is revealed that Cadbury’s parent company paid Zero Tax despite making £185million profit, this is just another smack in the teeth for the ordinary Brit. When are we going to stand up and say enough is enough?

        She’s a very minor royal. Why are we all paying anything. Her family should be paying.

        As much as I dislike the Royal Family, apart from Harry, they do ultimately pay their own way. They bring in about £1.8 billion a year in today's money through tourism and royal duties but only cost the taxpayer £292 million. The police spend more on security for protests/marches

        She is a real princess, if we can pay for commoner Meghan's protection then Eugenie is entitled by the same rules. If people don't like this, then the rules have to be changed, you cannot cherry-pick at will, that's not fair.

        The family should be invoiced for the costs as it is a family event.
