Couldn't Gove just use his salary and contributions from his mates to sort out Britannia?

So, here's the plan.
We send out invitations for a regal party on board the HMS Halfords.
Guest list to include all royals (regardless of how minor, but not the aforementioned regal biltong ), all heridary peers and their male offspring, the PM, the Chancellor, Michael Gove, that bloke at HMRC who let Vodafone off the hook (off the hook ... good eh?), the Murdochs, Richard Desmond and Ant and Dec.

Any more ?

This idiot for starters

Damo could go onboard as entertainment. They'll be hoping it will sink after listening to him for 5 minutes.

Mind you, we'd have to make sure the Duke of Ed isn't present, he's that dessicated, he'd just soak up the ocean as the boat sank.

I've donated already -all of my income around £4,000pa. Whether I wanted to or not is another matter. My ESA payments will stop in September because this government has limited it to 365 days, totally ignoring the Lords who didn't want this to happen and I may even be donating more tomorrow - they are debating the new Personal Independant Payment replacing DLA.

Oh, how happy I feel just giving my income away, just like that, how nice of this government to do this on my behalf afterall "we're all in this together".

how about if a hustings was erected in Trafalgar Square and all the 'Royals' were beheaded ?

that would save having to build a new 'Royal' Yacht !

Vive La Republique !!!

Has Prince "I like a bit of luxury" Charles been lobbying again? Given the Queen's age how much use is she liklely to get out of a new yacht given it would take years to build? Or is Gove suggesting a second hand model?
