Yes, think so. They could at least fix it to the wall! Looks so sloppy and uncaring just propped up like that so no one can read it.Is the slab in the top left of the photo Margaret’s memorial?

I wonder if it will get a permanent home now that the other stone won’t have to move anymore?Yes, think so. They could at least fix it to the wall! Looks so sloppy and uncaring just propped up like that so no one can read it.
Something to do with not being a monarch/spouse and the garter star?Where are Margaret’s ashes, are they in the vault with her parents, The Queen and Philip? If so why couldn’t her name be on the main memorial instead of off to the left?
Open Buck Pal and other palaces all year round, proceeds to go to maintenance, only heirs and children get HRH and work on the public purse, cut sovereign grant.What immediate changes do you think KC should do within the RF?
I agree with what @LoopyLou47 says, but I want to add that the royal family needs to be slimmed down like KC has hinted at. I'm not sure how it would even work in practice though e.g. removing titles from the offspring of the late Queen's cousins and so on. I think it's stupid the whole idea of being 68th in line to the throne or whatever.What immediate changes do you think KC should do within the RF?
He should not get off he could have killed someone he can afford to.pay a chauffeur when he organised the coronation. These dreadful people just don't give a damn. If he was a bricklayer he would be punished. Old git!Will be interesting if he gets off….

The thing is when the Dukes of Kent and Gloucester die, while the titles will pass down to their heirs they automatically loose their royal Duke status anyway and just go into the pool of ‘ordinary’ nobility with all the other non royal dukedoms and titles … so taking away the HRH from an 80 year old, just for the sake of it seems a bit daft … especially when they are still doing work on behalf of the royal family.I agree with what @LoopyLou47 says, but I want to add that the royal family needs to be slimmed down like KC has hinted at.

Looking at the number of private residences, how they are used, Maintained and staffed might be handy as well. The ‘they're privately owned‘ argument really is getting to the point where it doesn’t cut it. How many “bolt holes” can one person need.Open Buck Pal and other palaces all year round, proceeds to go to maintenance, only heirs and children get HRH and work on the public purse, cut sovereign grant.
I dont think you would remove titles. Plenty of people have titles including ex nobility of European Republics, like Beas husband, but they don't have roles as Royals. I do think no more nieces and nephews of The Monarch, so Andrews kids and Edwards kids don't have a choice of joining the gravy train. Let the excusing cousins of The Queen die out or retire under the current system.I agree with what @LoopyLou47 says, but I want to add that the royal family needs to be slimmed down like KC has hinted at.

Let's look it from another angle: I made money and built a house (in this case it was William the Conqueror), then made more money and built (bought) another house and let's imagine my heirs continue to do that. After sufficient number of years, my heirs would own as much palaces and land as RF. Do you expect my heirs to give a country their profit except for taxable income?Looking at the number of private residences, how they are used, Maintained and staffed might be handy as well.

I think the problem is that that is exactly what she has to do, but she can't or doesn't want to. In apparently 10 years of working with early years, she has come up with 5 fairly bland questions in a survey, resurrected the same thing 5 years later as a pie chart and had her picture taken sitting at a desk. This is an area that has been studied and worked on for decades, has had money put in by the way of Surestart centres and early years nursery funding, and taken away again by the government. She could have taken on so many things, for example girls sports, when sports is clearly something she's interested in. She could have done something effective in that instead of horsing around with elite athletes and turning up to Wimbledon and calling it work!And, of course, Kate sidesteps her obligation to the family asphalting business -- while pretending she isn't by patronizing the study of privilege.
I do think it's fair to raise the future monarchs as normally as possible, in school with other kids, out of the spotlight. And, home schooling is exhausting. Almost every mother in the world wishes she could have the privilege.
Not a Brit, so must inquire -- would it be considered too political for Kate to be the patron of day care, study and lobby for that?
