: I don't see why private travel needs to be
: paid for by anyone else than those doing the
: travelling. The Queen, the prince and his
: wife all three have a state income that
: exceeds their work-related expenses. That is
: their private income. That part of their
: income is to cover their private expenses
: and private travel should be included in
: that.
