Go back a while and you'll find that she wants to buy and own “palaces” for her retirement. Palaces don't come cheap. Then there's the upkeep. And the slav.....sorry, servants. And you can't move it/them, so she'll need one wherever she wants to spend a month or two. Could she cope with one £50million palace per continent? Plus the yachts, the aircraft, the vehicles, the slav.....sorry, servants. Then there's food, drink, entertainment, sex toys...........sorry, slaves, cosmetics, “health” products, doctors. All paid for by a grateful argie population, happy to survive on slop and slop in order that their “queen” should have what she “deserves”. Mind you, what she really deserves is a bullet between the eyes.
