Andrew got £302,000 compensation for surrendering his Royal Lodge lease after paying £1 peppercorn rent for 20 years and subletting cottages for profit. Epstein's victims wait for justice. Why compensate Andrew and not them? 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy

Prince William urges us to "check in, listen and show kindness" for World Mental Health Day. But this is the same man who's reportedly given Harry the "silent treatment" and refuses to reconcile. Practice what you preach. 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy

☕🇬🇧 Trump courts Putin over Russian oil while British families face soaring fuel bills. We shouldn’t have to choose between filling the car and funding a dictator’s war machine. Ordinary people pay the price. 🕊️

😂 Andrew moves out, Charles fumes, and the royal soap opera rolls on. Ordinary Brits pay the bills while an unelected family protects its privilege. What a bloody circus. 👑🇬🇧 #AbolishTheMonarchy

Andrew’s legal battle has reportedly angered the Royal Family. 😂 An unelected monarchy built on privilege, yet still allergic to scrutiny? Ordinary people deserve the same justice, transparency and accountability no royal exceptions. #AbolishTheMonarchy

#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 @kaurnarinder.bsky.social is right to ask the difficult questions. Andrew’s legal victory doesn’t end the Epstein investigation. Royal privilege shouldn’t mean a free pass from scrutiny. One rulebook for everyone. 👑#AbolishTheMonarchy

£137.9m Sovereign Grant and estimates put the monarchy’s wider cost at over £1bn a year once security, property, travel and other costs are included. Whatever the true total, taxpayers deserve to know exactly what they’re paying for. 👑🇬🇧 #AbolishTheMonarchy

An unelected monarchy funding its own family drama while ordinary taxpayers foot the bill? 👑 Give over. If public money and royal privilege are involved, transparency isn’t optional. Abolish the monarchy. 🇬🇧

#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 Gas storage running low, a £12bn hole in the public finances, and ordinary families facing higher energy bills. Meanwhile, oil giants are making billions from war-driven price spikes. 🤨 Funny who profits from war and who pays for it. 🕊️

Meghan forced to apologise for saying a royal queried Archie's skin colour. The royal was never named. Andrew is protected. Truth buried. Why apologise for telling the truth? 👑#AbolishTheMonarchy

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
“Prepare for war” — but who pays for it? £10bn for the proposed Britannia Shield, while ordinary families are already being squeezed by bills, housing and public-service pressures. **Security matters, but so does the security of people’s everyday lives.** 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Andrew gets legal representation; ordinary people get a crime number. Royal Lodge at peppercorn rent, taxpayer-funded security and private support from the King. Why should inherited privilege come with a different set of rules? Abolish the monarchy. 👑

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
#GoodMorning. ☕ @kaurnarinder.bsky.social dertweets is spot on. Andrew sues the police for questioning him, while Charles preaches "the law must take its course" and the Queen paid Giuffre £12m. An unelected monarchy, above the law, protecting its own. Diabolical. 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Meghan shares hosting tips and gets mocked. Pippa wrote "turkey feeds a crowd." Fergie said no grumpy princesses. Wallis obsessed over seating charts. One earns her own way. One profits from platitudes. Crown costs billions. 👑 #MeghanSussex #AbolishTheMonarchy

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
😂 Copying Reform while promising a “renewal” — make your mind up. And if you’re fixing problems after 14 years in government, perhaps start by explaining how you helped create them. 🇬🇧

#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 “Trust us on the economy” after years of promises, cuts and living-cost pressures? 😂 A Conservative “reset” doesn’t erase the record. If it’s a new direction, show us the numbers, the policies and who actually benefits. 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Andrew is taking legal action against Thames Valley Police to quash the search warrants that led to his arrest—facing six charges yet fighting the investigation itself. The Crown protects its own. 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

US bombers have left RAF Fairford. They'll wage war from America while British families near the base get the fallout and the bill. Higher fuel. Higher food. A target on our soil. Someone else's war, paid for by us. 🇬🇧

Burnham gave City’s UAE owners first refusal on prime Manchester land. They built nothing. Now it’s No 10 North. Meanwhile, the Duchy of Cornwall collects £1m in Scilly ground rents while resisting leasehold reform. Different men, same playbook: land, privilege, profit. 👑

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Meghan earns every penny. Kate lives off ours. Meghan built her own business Kate's never had a job. Crown costs billions while Archie's school is scoped by paparazzi. One works, the other waves. 💀

#GoodMorning. ☕ Badenoch says she'll keep the triple lock because "people have contributed." Her party froze it for three years, costing pensioners £36bn. Now she wants to "tackle the root cause" of low growth after 14 years of Tory stagnation. Late conversion. 💀#BBCLauraK

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Badenoch says scrapping the £100k childcare threshold is about fairness. But the Tories created it in 2017 . Now they're calling it "absurd" while funding the fix by cutting £1.6bn from public services. Deputy heads and nurses get relief—millionaires get free childcare. Priorities, eh? 💀

Water is essential — so why should it be run for profit? 💧 Thames Water has **£18.5bn of net debt**, bills are rising, and it recorded **470 pollution incidents in 2024**. Meanwhile, households are paying more. Public ownership deserves serious consideration. 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Monarchists claim the crown defends human rights. But the British Empire & the crown were built on slavery. Charles will not apologise. No reparations. The crown pays no tax. Crown costs billions human rights denied. They speak of rights. They wear a crown built on their absence.

Emergency diesel stockpiles because the war has sent fuel prices soaring? 🤨 **Not our war, not with our tax.** Ordinary people are paying nearly £2 a litre while families struggle with bills. We need energy security and peace, not another bloody bill. 🇬🇧⛽🕊️
032
Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Lee Cohen calls them the "reparations mafia"—as if acknowledging the Crown's role in slavery is a shakedown. The King isn't "standing up." He's protecting a £1.8bn fortune built on it. 👑 #Reparations #AbolishTheMonarchy

#GoodMorning. ☕🇬🇧 Meghan pops to Tesco and it's a media circus. Kate does a choreographed photo-op and it's front-page praise. One gets hounded for breathing, the other gets canonised for existing. Same institution. Different rules. Leave Meghan alone. 👑

50,000 more prison places by cutting aid to £1bn? 🤨 What do families actually need to feel safer more prisons, or properly funded schools, youth services and early intervention? People deserve prevention, not just punishment. 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
If the UAE is really threatening billions over Manchester City, that’s exactly the kind of political influence that demands scrutiny. When wealth and power get special access, ordinary people deserve accountability.

“Do Thatcherism again” — seriously? 🤦‍♀️ Privatisation and deregulation transformed Britain, but the legacy is still fiercely debated. Before repeating the experiment, maybe ask why so many people feel they’re **paying the price for decades of selling off public assets.** 🇬🇧

Monarchist economics: £2 per person. Reality: £500m all-in, tax-exempt Duchies, £400m payouts since 2018, £115bn debt interest. The arithmetic doesn't add up. Abolish the crown. 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy
022
Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
“Only party that will save Britain”? 😂 That’s a slogan, not evidence. Farage’s 100-day plan promises to stop the boats and cut energy bills by £250 promises aren’t the same as delivering results. Let’s see the evidence, not the bluster. 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 Brexit isn’t just Westminster waffle it affects prices, jobs, trade and opportunities. Andy Burnham and Labour should be prepared to confront the evidence and ask the uncomfortable question: did Brexit deliver what people were promised? 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
“Tough love” for under-25s? 🤨 Maybe start with **tough questions about low wages, sky-high rents, insecure work and the cost of living** young people are actually facing. It’s easy to lecture people when you’re not living their reality. 🇬🇧

£50m more for a billionaire family while public services crumble. The King's private income hit £25.2m last year, and his estate charges the NHS £11.4m to park ambulances. They don't need our money. Scrap the grant. 👑 #AbolishTheMonarchy
012
Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
The Express calls it a "crying shame." I call it a man who watched his dad die of Alzheimer's and decided to rip the plaster off. They're melting down because it came from the heart. Meanwhile, the Crown sits on £1.5bn while the NHS is charged £11.4m to park ambulances. 👑

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
Kate hosted a tea party at Windsor Castle for Three Peaks participants. She climbed three peaks for the Royal Marsden. But her Mother's Day photo was edited – she apologised. The Duchy of Cornwall pays no tax – and earns £1.1bn. Crown costs billions – NHS underfunded.

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
This is exactly how you end up feeding the warmongering media machine. An investigation is still an investigation — speculation about who supposedly recruited whom isn’t evidence. Stick to the facts, protect the public and stop turning Londoners into pawns in another bloody war narrative. 🇬🇧🕊️
011
Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 The Sun and TalkTV are doing what the warmongering media always do turn an unfolding investigation into fear, outrage and another excuse for escalation. Meanwhile, ordinary taxpayers are left paying the bloody bill. Facts first. Peace over propaganda.

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Kate wore royal vault diamonds. Her gown cost £3,000+. Cruise called them "amazing." Necklace came from royal vault. Premiere was for Film Charity. Crown costs billions – Kate wears diamonds. She wore a fortune. You paid for it. 👑

“Stop the boats in 100 days” — yet Reform is facing **police scrutiny over donations and questions around senior figures**. Big promises are easy; credibility means answering the questions and showing the evidence. 🇬🇧

199p a litre for diesel? Bloody hell. 😳 **People are being rinsed just to get to work, run the van and do the school run.** How much more can ordinary families be expected to cough up? 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
A farmer raises the alarm, yet the MOD reportedly misses the call. 🤨 **Before the media beat the war drum, investigate the failures properly. Ordinary taxpayers need safety and peace — not another escalation they’ll ultimately pay for.** 🕊️💷

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Tice talks about homelessness, but his own party is facing serious questions over its finances including police scrutiny of donations routed through a company he controls. Before lecturing everyone else, perhaps answer the questions at home. 🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
#GoodMorning, Britain. ☕🇬🇧 Five men arrested near RAF Fairford as police investigate a possible Iran link. Whatever the outcome, war has consequences and ordinary taxpayers shouldn’t be left paying the price for endless military escalation.

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
The King trying to intervene in a private family matter? 🤨 The unelected monarchy can command headlines, but it shouldn’t get a free pass from scrutiny. Ordinary people don’t have palaces or royal connections to call on. 👑🇬🇧

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Harry kneels – a cultural gesture. William rides a palanquin. Palanquin echoes colonial imagery. Harry wore the uniform – and served. William's conservation work – and palanquin. Harry kneels – William rides. Crown costs billions – context stripped. One kneels to greet. One rides on backs. 👑

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
“Britain is broken. Only Reform can fix it.” 😂 That’s quite a claim. If you’re asking people to trust you with the country, spell out **how** you’ll fix bills, housing, the NHS and public services — slogans aren’t a bloody plan.

Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
“No tax increases” — fine, but then show us the numbers. Working families are already carrying the care burden while Britain funds an **unelected monarchy and layers of inherited privilege**. People need properly funded care, not more Westminster waffle. 👑🇬🇧
031
Candice Holmes @candiceholmes.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Citizenship shouldn’t come with an asterisk because your parents were born elsewhere. Britain already has powers to strip citizenship in serious cases — dressing up more deprivation as a new “tough” pledge risks creating two classes of Britons. Equal rights should mean exactly that. 🇬🇧
