''If so, could Shell share price hit £30?''

Oil at 147 dollars is not required in order for the Shell share price to reach £30

I wonder if the Grosvenor Estate would give up all profits to the treasury in return for a grant - I think not

Does the Duke of Westminster need to be 'kept on his toes' as well - the Grosvenor Estate was set up in 1677 - has Billions in assets.

Fortunately for him, he doesn't need to perform public duties on behalf of the country.

Snige

in what way to ''keep them on their toes.'' ?

The agreement regarding giving all profits from the crown estate to the treasury in return for a grant wouldn't be torn up - in fact they would be better off not having the agreement and simply pay tax on crown estate profits.

The Duchy of Lancaster income would continue
as would the Duchy of Cornwall.
These are inheritances/trusts set up in the family that any family can set up.

So I repeat ''keep them on their toes'' in what way?
Abolishing the UK monarchy would not diminish the family income, but there may be a drop in UK plc income .

Duchy of Lancaster

Don't need to be a royalist to come to the conclusion that our royal family is a positive for UK plc

Most of the Queens income (privy purse) comes from the 'held in trust' Duchy of Lancaster

About the same as brand 'Beckham' - made in about 20 years

Personal wealth of the queen in 2022 is estimated at £365 million.
Small change compared with many that could be named.

''If the royal family does not make a profit from being Royals, how do they accumulate so much private wealth?''

Profits from the 'crown estate' goes into the Treasury's coffers .
This has been the case since 1760, but in return an annual payment to maintain estates is made. Assets in the crown estate can never be sold by a monarch.
The Queen privately only owns 2 properties - Balmoral and Sandringham.
The Duchy of Lancaster is held in trust and set up as an inheritance in 1265.
The Duchy of Cornwall was established by Edward III in 1337 to provide an income for the heir to the throne.
The bottom line is that the crown estate generates far more for the taxpayer than is recycled back as a grant.
In addition there is income tax/capital gains paid on the Duchy of Lancaster and Duchy of Cornwall.
Property prices have gone up a lot in the last 1000 years.

''There is NO difference between the Royal family and a dictator like Putin or Xi Jinping - don't you fools understand that? ''

You are a total disgrace.

''reap riches from the country at the expense of the people who live and work here.''

''they contributed an estimated £1.9 billion annually to Britain's economy pre-pandemic.

''A tight jobs market with worker shortages and rising pay is both a constraint on growth and will keep inflation higher for longer.

The USA created 390,000 jobs in May.. Pay rises are coming in below inflation at the moment so should not add to an inflationary spiral.
Increasing interest rates are required to slow things down. A slow down with eventual lowering of inflation would be the aim without mass job losses. Time will tell if this can be achieved.
The same applies to the UK

order in for 44.9

hopefully will trigger first thing Monday
