Finances of the British Royal family - wikipedia Finances of the British Royal family Jump to : navigation , search The British royal family is financed by the hereditary revenues of the Crown . The British Parliament uses a percentage of the Crown Estate , a part of the Crown 's hereditary revenues belonging to the sovereign that is placed at the disposal of the House of Commons , to meet the costs of the sovereign 's official expenditures . This includes the costs of the upkeep of the various royal residences , staffing , travel and state visits , public engagements , and official entertainment . Other sources of income include revenues from the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall , a parliamentary annuity , and income from private investments . The Keeper of the Privy Purse is Head of the Privy Purse and Treasurer 's Office and has overall responsibility for the management of the sovereign 's financial affairs .

King George III agreed to surrender the hereditary revenues of the Crown in return for the Civil List , and this arrangement persisted from 1760 until 2012 . The Civil List was paid from public funds and was intended to support the exercise of the monarch 's duties as head of state of the United Kingdom . In modern times , the Government 's profits from the Crown Estate always significantly exceeded the Civil List . Under the Civil List arrangements the royal family faced criticism for the lack of transparency surrounding Royal finances . The National Audit Office was not entitled to audit the Royal Household . The Queen received an annual £ 7.9 million a year from the Civil List between 2001 and 2012 . The total income of the Royal Household from the Treasury was always significantly larger than the Civil List because it included additional income such as Grants - in - Aid from the Treasury and revenues from the Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster . The total Royal Household income for the financial years 2011 - 12 and 2012 - 13 was £ 30 million per annum , followed by a 14 % cut in the following year . However , the Treasury provided an additional £ 1 million to pay for Diamond Jubilee celebrations in 2012 . Royal expenditure differs from income due to the use of a Reserve Fund , which can be added to or drawn from . The official reported annual expenditure of the Head of State was £ 41.5 million for the 2008 - 09 financial year . This figure did not include the cost of security provided by the police and the Army and some other expenses . Sovereign Grant ( edit ) Main article : Sovereign Grant Act 2011 Under the Sovereign Grant Act 2011 , the system of funding the Royal Household by a mixture of Civil List payments and Grants - in - Aid was replaced . From 1 April 2012 a single annual Sovereign Grant has been paid by the Treasury . The level of funding for the Royal Household is now linked to the Government 's revenue from The Crown Estate . The Sovereign Grant Annual Report states that the Sovereign Grant was £ 31 million for 2012 - 13 , £ 36.1 million for 2013 - 14 and £ 37.9 million for 2014 - 15 . The amount of the Sovereign Grant is 15 % of the income account net surplus of the Crown Estate for the financial year that began two years previously . The arrangements will be reviewed by 2016 ( subsection 7 ( 5 ) of the Act ) . Step 4 of subsection 6 ( 1 ) , and subsection 6 ( 4 ) , of the Act provide a mechanism to prevent the amount of the Sovereign Grant increasing beyond what is necessary because of the growth in Crown Estate revenue . Under the Sovereign Grant the National Audit Office is able to audit the Royal Household . On November 18 , 2016 a plan was announced to increase the Sovereign Grant from 15 % to 25 % to renovate and repair Buckingham Palace . The percentage is set to revert to 15 % when the project is finished in 2027 . Duchy of Lancaster ( edit ) Main article : Duchy of Lancaster The Duchy of Lancaster is the private estate of the British Sovereign ( now Queen Elizabeth II ) consisting of land holdings and other assets . As it is held in perpetual trust for future generations of Sovereigns , the Sovereign is not entitled to the estate 's capital . The revenue profits of the Duchy are presented to the Sovereign each year and form part of the Privy Purse , providing income for both the official and private expenses of the monarch . In the financial year ending 31 March 2015 , the Duchy was valued at £ 472 million , providing £ 16 million in income . In 2017 , the Paradise Papers revealed that the Duchy held investments in two offshore financial centres , the Cayman Islands and Bermuda . Both are British Overseas Territories of which Queen Elizabeth II is monarch , and nominally appoints governors . Britain handles foreign policy for both islands to a large extent , but Bermuda has been self - governing since 1620 . The Duchy 's investments included First Quench Retailing off - licences and rent - to - own retailer BrightHouse . Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn posited whether the Queen should apologize , saying anyone with money offshore for tax avoidance should `` not just apologise for it , ( but ) recognise what it does to our society '' . A spokesman for the Duchy said that all of their investments are audited and legitimate and that the Queen voluntarily pays taxes on income she receives from Duchy investments . Duchy of Cornwall ( edit ) Main article : Duchy of Cornwall The Duchy of Cornwall is a Crown entity holding land and other assets to produce an income for the monarch 's eldest child . The Duke of Cornwall ( Charles , Prince of Wales ) receives revenue towards charitable work and official activities , supported by The Queen 's Grant - in - aid funding to provide assistance with official travel and property . These financial arrangements also cover the official expenditure of some members of his immediate family . The Duchess of Cornwall , The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry all have their official expenses paid from Duchy income , assisted by grants - in aid from The Queen . For the fiscal year 2011 - 12 the Duchy was valued at £ 728 million with an annual profit of £ 18.3 million paid to the Prince . Parliamentary annuities ( edit ) The Duke of Edinburgh receives a parliamentary annuity of £ 359,000 per year from the Treasury . In the past some other members of the British royal family also received funding in the form of parliamentary annuities . The Civil List Act 1952 provided for an allowance to Princess Margaret as well as allowances to the queen 's younger children among others . The Civil List Act 1972 added further members of the royal family to the annuity list . By 2002 there were eight recipients of parliamentary annuities ( all children or cousins of the Queen ) receiving a combined total of £ 1.5 million annually . Between 1993 and 2012 the Queen voluntarily refunded the cost of these annuities to the Treasury . The Sovereign Grant Act 2011 abolished all of these other than that received by the Duke of Edinburgh . Subsequently the living costs of the members of the royal family who carry out official duties , including the Princess Royal , the Duke of York , and the Earl and Countess of Wessex , have mainly been met through the Queen 's income from the Duchy of Lancaster . Taxation ( edit ) The Crown has a legal tax - exempt status because certain acts of parliament do not apply to it . Crown bodies such as The Duchy of Lancaster are not subject to legislation concerning income tax , capital gains tax or inheritance tax . Furthermore , the Sovereign has no legal liability to pay such taxes . The Duchy of Cornwall has a Crown exemption and the Prince of Wales is not legally liable to pay income tax on Duchy revenues . A `` Memorandum of Understanding on Royal Taxation '' was published on 5 February 1993 and amended in 1996 , 2009 and 2013 . It is intended that the arrangements in the memorandum will be followed by the next monarch . The memorandum describes the arrangements by which The Queen and The Prince of Wales make voluntary payments to the HM Revenue and Customs in lieu of tax to compensate for their tax exemption . The details of the payments are private . The Queen voluntarily pays a sum equivalent to income tax on her private income and income from the Privy Purse ( which includes the Duchy of Lancaster ) that is not used for official purposes . The Sovereign Grant is exempted . A sum equivalent to capital gains tax is voluntarily paid on any gains from the disposal of private assets made after 5 April 1993 . Many of the Sovereign 's assets were acquired earlier than this date but payment is only made on the gains made afterwards . Arrangements also exist for a sum in lieu of inheritance tax to be voluntarily paid on some of the Queen 's private assets . Property passing from monarch to monarch is exempted , as is property passing from the consort of a former monarch to the current monarch . The Prince of Wales voluntarily pays a sum equivalent to income tax on that part of his income from the Duchy of Cornwall that is in excess of what is needed to meet official expenditure . From 1969 he made voluntary tax payments of 50 % of the profits , but this reduced to 25 % in 1981 when he married Lady Diana Spencer . These arrangements were replaced by the memorandum in 1993 . The income of the Prince of Wales from sources other than the Duchy of Cornwall is subject to tax in the normal way . Assets ( edit ) Private wealth of the Queen ( edit ) The Queen has a private income from her personal investment portfolio , though her personal wealth and income are not known . Jock Colville , a former private secretary to the Queen ( when she was Princess Elizabeth ) and a director of her bank , Coutts , estimated her wealth at £ 2 million in 1971 ( the equivalent of about £ 26 million today ) . An official statement from Buckingham Palace in 1993 called estimates of £ 100 million `` grossly overstated '' . In 2002 , she inherited her mother 's estate , thought to have been worth £ 70 million ( the equivalent of about £ 105 million today ) . Forbes magazine estimated the Queen 's net worth at around $500 million ( about £ 325 million ) in 2011 , while an analysis by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index put it at $425 million ( about £ 275 million ) in 2015 . In 2012 the Sunday Times estimated the Queen 's wealth as being £ 310 million ( $504 million ) , and that year the Queen received a Guinness World Record as Wealthiest Queen . The Sunday Times Rich List 2015 estimated her wealth at £ 340 million , making her the 302nd richest person in the United Kingdom ; that was the first year she was not among the Sunday Times Rich List 's top 300 most wealthy since the list began in 1989 . She was number one on the list when it began in 1989 . Sandringham House and Balmoral Castle are privately owned by the Queen . Crown Estate ( edit ) Main article : Crown Estate The Crown Estate is one of the largest property owners in the United Kingdom , producing £ 211 million for the Treasury in the financial year 2007 -- 8 . and with holdings of £ 7.3 billion in 2011 . The Crown Estate is not the private property of the Monarch . It can not be sold or owned by the Sovereign in a private capacity , nor do any revenues , or debts , from the estate accrue to her . Instead the Crown Estate is owned by the Crown , a corporation representing the legal embodiment of the State . It is held in trust and governed by Act of Parliament , to which it makes an annual report . Revenue from the Crown Estate is thought to be due to double in real terms between 2010 and 2020 with additional lease revenues deriving from the development of offshore wind farms within Britain 's Renewable Energy Zone , the rights of which were granted to the Crown Estate by the Energy Act 2004 . Assets held in trust ( edit ) A number of State possessions are held in trust by the Sovereign . The Royal Collection is the art collection of the British royal family . It is one of the largest and most important art collections in the world , containing over 7,000 paintings , 40,000 watercolours and drawings , about 150,000 old master prints , historical photographs , tapestries , furniture , ceramics , books , gold and silver plate , arms and armour , jewellery and other works of art . The collection includes the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London ( including the crown , orb and sceptre ) . It is physically dispersed between thirteen Royal residences and former residences across Britain . Although the collection belongs to the sovereign , it is not the personal property of Elizabeth II as a private individual . Instead the collection is held in trust by the Queen for her successors and the nation . The Treasury refers to these assets as `` vested in the sovereign and can not be alienated '' . Income is generated by the collection from public admissions and other sources . This income is received by the Royal Collection Trust , the collection 's management charity , and not by the Queen . The occupied royal palaces in the United Kingdom such as Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle are held in trust by the sovereign . The Royal Household is expected to use the Sovereign Grant to maintain the palaces . In May 2009 the Queen requested an extra £ 4 million annually from the government to carry out a backlog of repairs to Buckingham Palace . In 2010 , the Royal Household requested an additional grant from the Department for Culture , Media and Sport but were refused on the basis that the scheme was `` aimed at schools , hospitals , councils and housing associations for heating programmes which benefit low - income families '' . Over a third of the Royal estate was in disrepair by 2012 - 13 according to a report by the Public Accounts Committee . The cost of restoration was estimated to be £ 50 million , but the Reserve Fund was at a historic low of £ 1m . The Monarch is also responsible for using the Sovereign Grant to pay the wages of 431 of the approximately 1200 Royal Household staff , amounting to £ 18.2 million in 2014 - 15 . In 2013 , the Guardian newspaper reported that Buckingham Palace was using zero - hour contract for its summer staff and in 2015 it was reported that at least four senior officials had been made redundant to reduce costs .

Question: where do royal families get their money from


Pride of the Marines - wikipedia Pride of the Marines Jump to : navigation , search For the 1936 film , see Pride of the Marines ( 1936 film ) . Pride of the Marines Original film poster Directed by Delmer Daves Produced by Jerry Wald Written by Delmer Daves ( uncredited ) Marvin Borowsky Screenplay by Albert Maltz Based on Al Schmid , Marine 1944 book by Roger Butterfield Starring John Garfield Eleanor Parker Music by Franz Waxman Cinematography J. Peverell Marley Edited by Owen Marks Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures Release date August 8 , 1945 ( 1945 - 08 - 08 ) ( Philadelphia ) Running time 119 minutes Country United States Language English Pride of the Marines is a 1945 American biographical war film starring John Garfield and Eleanor Parker . It tells the story of U.S. Marine Al Schmid in World War II , his heroic stand against a Japanese attack during the Battle of Guadalcanal , in which he was blinded by a grenade , and his subsequent rehabilitation . The film was based on the Roger Butterfield book Al Schmid , Marine . Albert Maltz was nominated for an Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay . Contents ( hide ) 1 Plot 2 Cast 3 Production 4 Reception 5 Adaptations 6 References 7 External links Plot ( edit ) The film is divided in three parts . The first takes place prior to the war where cocky Philadelphia steel worker and `` Man 's man '' Al Schmid ( John Garfield ) despises the idea of marriage and losing his independence until he meets his match in Ruth Hartley ( Eleanor Parker ) . Ruth takes no nonsense from him and impresses Schmid by enjoying a hunting trip he takes her on . In part two , at the Battle of the Tenaru River on Guadalcanal , Schmid is in the crew of a M1917 Browning machine gun with his buddies Lee Diamond ( Dane Clark ) and Johnny Rivers ( Anthony Caruso ) of `` H '' Company 2nd Battalion First Marines . While the three wait for an enemy attack , they practice gun emplacement procedures -- establishing fields of fire , practicing with the range card to estimate firing distances , and determining the optimal traversal and elevation settings for each anticipated line of attack . The subsequent onslaught by the enemy is particularly heavy . Rivers is killed by a bullet through the head , Diamond wounded by three machine gun bullets in his right arm , and Schmid is blinded by a Japanese soldier dropping a hand grenade at the front of the gun pit . In spite of the heavy attack , Schmid is able to fire his weapon by following Diamond 's instructions . Together , they kill 200 of the enemy . The third part is Schmid 's humbling rehabilitation , in which he resents being dependent upon others . He hopes that an operation will restore his sight , but the medical procedure was n't successful . He does n't want Ruth to know that he is nearly completely blind , and he attempts to break up with her . Schmid learns responsibility through Diamond , hospital rehabilitation officer Virginia Pfeiffer ( Rosemary DeCamp ) and the other wounded veterans . He is to be awarded the Navy Cross , but is dismayed that the ceremony will take place in his home town . He initially feels anger and discomfort when he becomes dependent upon family and friends , primarily because he does n't want to be a burden to anyone . In spite of his resentment , Ruth stays by his side and helps him overcome his bitterness , and convinces him that he must learn to live with his new situation . Cast ( edit ) John Garfield as Al Schmid Eleanor Parker as Ruth Hartley Dane Clark as Lee Diamond John Ridgely as Jim Merchant Rosemary DeCamp as Virginia Pfeiffer Ann Doran as Ella May Merchant Ann E. Todd as Loretta Merchant Anthony Caruso as Johnny Rivers Ann E. Todd is the last surviving cast member . Production ( edit ) During the Battle of Guadalcanal , two enlisted Marines , Mitchell Paige and John Basilone were awarded the Medal of Honor for their use of the M1917 Browning machine gun against massed Japanese charges . In Jim Proser 's book I 'm Staying With My Boys : The Heroic Life of Sgt . John Basilone USMC Proser tells of Basilone 's friendship with John Garfield and Eddie Bracken when they toured the United States selling war bonds . Screenwriters A.I. Bezzerides and Alvah Bessie developed a 26 - page treatment of Roger Butterfield 's book Al Schmid Marine . Martin Borowsky also did an adaptation of Butterfield 's book that was rewritten by Albert Maltz who Garfield has spoken to about Butterfield 's story . Prior to filming , Garfield visited American soldiers in hospitals in Italy . Garfield met Schmid during his rehabilitation before a movie was ever planned . Once the film was planned , Garfield lived with the Schmids for several weeks , becoming friends with the couple . Both Bessie and Maltz were later blacklisted over their `` un-American '' political opinions . Film locations include the 6500 block of Tulip Street in Philadelphia . Reception ( edit ) Bosley Crowther of The New York Times called the film `` a splendid documentation of a dramatic crisis in a hero 's life , '' with performances that were `` all unqualifiedly excellent ... To say that this picture is entertaining to a truly surprising degree is an inadequate recommendation . It is inspiring and eloquent of a quality of human courage that millions must try to generate today . '' Variety called it `` a two - hour celluloid saga which should inspire much pride for many . As an entertainment film with a forceful theme , so punchy that its ' message ' aspects are negligible , it is a credit to all concerned ... ( Garfield ) gives a vividly histrionic performance that will not be easily forgotten . '' Harrison 's Reports called the film `` sensitive and at times forceful '' and called Garfield `` very good , '' but found the discourses by hospitalized servicemen `` so long drawn out that they interrupt the flow of the story . '' Wolcott Gibbs of The New Yorker wrote : `` In spite of the fact that most of this has a somewhat familiar and mechanical air , the picture has its effective moments , mostly owing to Mr. Garfield 's honest and very intelligent performance . '' The film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists : 2006 : AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Cheers -- Nominated Adaptations ( edit ) Pride of the Marines was adapted as a radio play on the January 31 , 1945 episode of Lux Radio Theater and the June 15 , 1946 episode of Academy Award Theater , both with John Garfield reprising his role .

'' ( 1963 ) `` I Like It '' ( 1963 ) `` How Do You Do It ? '' ( 1963 ) `` I Like It '' ( 1963 ) `` How Do You Do It ? '' was the debut single by Liverpudlian band Gerry and the Pacemakers . The song was number one in the UK Singles Chart on 11 April 1963 , where it stayed for three weeks . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Other versions 3 References 4 External links History ( edit ) The song was written by Mitch Murray , who offered it to Adam Faith and Brian Poole but was turned down . George Martin of EMI decided to pick it up for the new group he was producing , the Beatles , as the A-side of their first record . The Beatles recorded the song but opposed releasing it , feeling that it did not fit their sound , but worked out changes from Murray 's demo - disc version . These included a new introduction , vocal harmony , an instrumental interlude , small lyric changes and removal of the half - step modulation for the last verse . They recorded the song in September , 1962 ; although Murray disliked their changes , the decision not to release the Beatles ' version was primarily a business one . `` Love Me Do '' was their first single instead . The recording was officially released in November 1995 on the Beatles retrospective Anthology 1 album . Gerry and the Pacemakers ' version , also produced by Martin , became a number - one hit in the UK until it was replaced by `` From Me to You '' ( the Beatles ' third single ) . It was the title song of a seven - inch EP record also featuring `` Away From You '' , `` I Like It '' and `` It 's Happened to Me '' ( Columbia SEG8257 , released July 1963 ) . The single entered the US charts on 5 July 1964 , eventually reaching number nine . Other versions ( edit ) Dick and Dee Dee released a version of the song on their 1966 album , Songs We 've Sung on Shindig .
