Original Note:
The post suggests that King Charles is receiving a “pay rise”. This is not correct. There is to be an increase in the Sovereign Grant as a result of increased profits from the Crown Estate. It is largely due to be spent on the remainder of Buckingham Palace’s refurbishment. https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jul/20/king-charles-to-receive-huge-pay-rise-from-uk-taxpayers
