    From Google: The 2020 US election campaigns smashed all records – with presidential and congressional candidates spending a total of almost $14bn (yes, that’s FOURTEEN BILLION DOLLARS) – more than double the price tag for 2016 (which was a measly SIX TO SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS ($6-7bn).
    Which sounds best? An enjoyable Royal Visit, or the pain and animosity that goes with a Presidential Campaign?

    We’re paying for this visit because the Monarchy has served us well and continues to do so. We don’t wish to be another United States with the stupidity that goes on every time they have to elect a President. The cost of their Presidential elections (billions) is absolutely ridiculous and it is also totally discordant amongst the people. The British Monarchy has shown itself to be ethical and steady. ‘Mildred’ (above) is right. We pay more for our ‘Politicians gadding about than for our monarch’s visit’. Long may our Monarchy remain!
