The gate receipts on Buckingham Palace compensate for (allegedly) the wealthiest individual in the UK?

So say you get your beloved republic, do you suddenly think you'll start paying less tax? You are so deluded, the tax will stay the same, or as usual go up, do you think any of the public services will benefit? If you answer yes, you probably need help. President Blair will have a bigger jet ordered, and maybe a bigger country retreat.
