The Queen has been forced to sell the Royal Raft to pay for long term
care after developing symptoms of a stomach bug. Whilst The Queen is
stoical about her health issues, like the rest of us, she is feeling the
pinch.
A Palace spokesperson revealed that the Queen’s gas and
electrics bills alone are over 2 million pounds this year. The money gained from the sale of her beloved Royal Raft will help
meet these care costs. The HM Treasury grant would normally foot
the bill will be boosted by the sale of the Royal Raft in the form of
personal tax due from artists and Royal Raft builders Wyllie O Hagan.
45% of the income tax due of the £51million expected to be achieved in
the sale will go directly to Her Majesties Revenues and Customs.
Unlike Damian Hirst, whose artwork “For the Love of God” (diamond
encrusted human skull) was purchased in part by himself and his gallery
to achieve the record sum of 50 million pounds on 30 August 2008, The
Royal Raft is expected to be purchased solely by a consortium led by a
certain female Russian oligarch.
Supporters of the Royal Raft who wish it to remain in Britain are
urged to contact Wyllie O Hagan.
