Here is what the ownership of the modern UK looks like Ownership
Simon Jenkins offers some interesting ideas about the future of future ownership when Prince William becomes king (where William moves to Forest Lodge, an era of Royals Transparency Transparency. Will that save ownership?, August 21). A good start is to cancel the act of superiority that currently connects sovereignty with the role of the Supreme Governor of the England Church. The future monarch must be free to choose his religion, and this is more representative of multicultural Britain.
As the constitutional kings, William and his wife must continue to put good examples of a living life worthy of attention. There is also the representative role of the head of state in entertainment for foreign personalities. These are very demanding roles that require a reasonable amount of stopping working in normal family life away from intrusive media coverage. The Sovereign needs some support from their direct families, and it will be reasonable to provide a royal position of up to four supporters and partners, who meet the required criteria and the participants are ready.
Forest Lodge should be a major residence in the special part of Windsor Great Park is perfect for privacy, but it is also located in a suitable place to attend the official state events in Windsor Castle. The delivery of the Buckingham Palace and the Kinsington Palace to the historical royal palaces is also logical, as the balcony at Buckingham Palace is still available as a pivotal point for major government occasions in central London.
Finally, there is the issue of private real estate in Sandingham and Balmoral. Since there is a severe shortage in the affordable housing for rental in the UK, it will be a reasonable gesture to the royal family to convert each of these properties into funding funds to finance the affordable housing developments for rents all over the United Kingdom.
Balmoral in particular contains an area to increase revenues from visitor projects. Bolthole properties can be kept on both properties for exclusive use of the royal family.

What do you do with Buckingham Palace? Perhaps the best answer to Simon Jenkins’ proposal is to convert the palace and its great garden to modern parliament’s homes with purposes and food with all the necessary services and external buildings, and the conversion of the Davin and inappropriate Westminster complex into a wonderful public center that works as a museum, an art gallery, on an equal footing between Big Ben.

Simon Jenkins’s article on the potential repetition of royal palaces in particular the Buckingham Palace and its own gardens is mentioned. Previous articles highlighted the need to restore the Westminster Palace at the cost of billions of pounds and the decision to pour or restore function. It has been put up before, but it was deducted due to the restoration of the constant Buckingham Palace (almost complete now), but there is a strong argument until it becomes at least home to the House of Lords. There is a delightful precedent at the Luxembourg Palace in Paris, which is the home of the Senate and Luxembourg open to the public.
