The Queen to buy £7,000,000 private jet
 

In the paper it says the Queen is about to spend £7 million on a private jet. She is actively involved in choosing from several options.

Fair enough if she's paying for it herself. As long as she keeps Randy Andy out of the Chinook helicopters when he goes to play golf............... :rolleyes:

The civil list invested more wisely could have won us another Bronze medal in China.:do-one:

Now how did you know that?
Her hedge fund investments are private, and are kept secret ;):D

She has to get to the bingo somehow and Phil the Greek says taxis are too expensive.

She has never had a private jet and shares government planes used by government officials and military top brass.

It stated that we have spent £5.5 million last year on private charters has she often ends having here government flights changed or used for something else.

Supposedly having her own plane will save the country money

Re: The Queen to but £7,000,000 private jet
 

It would save the country a hell of a lot more money if we just scrapped her

Who will pay the cost of maintaining the darn thing?
Will she have her own private pilot and ground staff?

No doubt the RAF will provide this at our expense

Bearing in mind what happens when you have a republic, the USA, Russia, etc. I have no problem keeping things the way they are, I just wish she would use her power over the government more often, would love to see Gordon's face if she decided to disolve parliment!
