Same as the rags, any chance to jump on the bandwagon, they take it. Remember the Chilean miners rescue, and how the rags got involved with all that? Or proboscis boy, Rashford, and his school dinners ego trip?
They were all over the Thai cave boys if I recall?

Edit, having reread that it sounds very wrong.
 
The argument that the royal family bring on loads of money through tourism is a myth. The country that hosts the most tourists every year is France and they haven't had a king for over 200 years. Vive la revolution!!
There are plenty of good reasons for abolishing the monarchy but this is not one of them.
You mention France(probably the worst example you could make) who changed things 200+ years ago and the Palace of Versailles is one of their top tourist attractions.
Whatever anyone's take on the royals,they do interest tourists and it does bring in revenue,not that this is a justification for continuing to have them.
 
It would be nice if we could hold off on spouting the usual toxic bile about Liverpool supporters, and instead take a moment, this afternoon of 6th May 2023, to appreciate an truly momentous occasion which the world hasn't seen for generations:

In a country that has lost its mind, scousers will actually appear to be the most sane

One for the history books!

Plus France is a country literally joined to the European continent. Disneyland Paris receives 12 million visitors per year.

As you rightly point out, you can't just glibly point out that France has more tourism than the royals that would ne like saying the UK has more cheese than Paris ;)
