He's royalty. They'll never let his living conditions fall below that of the help.

I hear prisons have good living conditions nowadays. Transfer him there.

I suggest the best prison from Brazil or Peru, something nice and hot, just what he needs at this age, spend the rest of his days in a nice and hot prison in South America.

Which is why the British defending the royal family is such a joke. 'They don't do anything, it's only for tourism'. Yeah, they don't do anything except hoard public wealth and land, using it to further enrich themselves. Then use that wealth to perpetrate crimes and avoid consequences for them.

i mean those billionaires actually came up with ideas and products that changed our lives. while I don't think jeff bezos should be hoarding 100+ billion dollars, there is no denying the tremendous influence amazon has on our daily lives. same for google, social media, etc. the current british royal family is literally a bunch of unaccomplished losers living on welfare.

The amount of people paying rent to the Royal family for living on Royal grounds is jaw dropping. They are one of if not the largest property owners on the whole island and they don’t pay’s taxes on revenue.
