Prince Charles and David Cameron on Junkets at tax payers expense and tell us folk not to go on holidays?
Question by paul w: Prince Charles and David Cameron on Junkets at tax payers expense and tell us folk not to go on holidays?
Why do Charles Windsor and David Cameron go to the artic for a blast on snowmobiles {great fun for them and their hangers on, free too !!} or to the Galapagos yet tell us that only the rich, famous or important people {like wot they are} should be able to do the same?
I would like to do both trips myself. I would like it even more if it was ‘in works time’ , free and indeed, as it is on works time, I got paid {plus ‘overtime} for going too, plus expenses, plus ‘spending money’ etc etc etc .
Double standards or what?
Why can’t Charles & Cameron stay in London and say this?
See below for Charles’s latest Jolly. He’s even taken the Mrs.
‘Junkets R Us’ or what ?
Prince Charles was to head Monday to the Galapagos Islands on the final leg of a 10-day South American tour highlighting his commitment to battling climate change. Skip related content

Have your say: Royal Family
The prince, accompanied by his wife Camilla, arrived in the Ecuadoran capital Quito on Sunday ahead of their flight to the archipelago, a pristine nature reserve which inspired Charles Darwin in his theory of evolution.
Unlike on his previous stops, in Chile and Brazil, the heir to the throne was not greeted by Ecuador’s President Rafael Correa.
Instead, Vice President Lenin Moreno and Foreign Minister Fander Falconi did the honors.
Ecuador’s government used the prince’s presence to reiterate its ambition of receiving millions of dollars in foreign “compensation” for not exploiting oil reserves located in a national park.
“Prince Charles was content with the Ecuadoran initiative that promotes a form of environmental conservation, and expressed his hopes that the project become reality,” Moreno said.
Charles and Camilla were to be accompanied to the Galapagos by Ecuador’s environment minister, Marcela Aguinaga.
And why are Prince Charles pockets sooooooooooooooooooooooooo deep?
He has no more earned his ££££££££ Millions than Bernire Madoff or ‘Sir Fred’ of the RBS !!
And, as I say, he could make the point without leaving blighty, ditto Cameron.
Perhaps u should have spent more time reporting double standards ?
I find it all q funny mind !!

but its the
‘do as I say and not as I do’
aspect that is soooooooooooooo
v v v v v v v v v v v v v very wrong !

first of all charles probably is paying out of one of his many deep pockets.
secondly, sometimes it takes having a well-known, celebrated or powerful figure in one’s country to bring home that other people are concerned about what is happening here. and if that figure is bringing to light a positive action that might otherwise be overlooked, so much the better. you can read about that in the news report you pasted into your question.

In other words, he speaks very ideally. Good things are for some and not others. I have heard that one before. For example, you are supposed to imagine a nice big cookie with lots of chocolate chips and M&Ms baked into it. You are then told that some people get a tiny nibble and others get the whole thing, and it is called fair, because what is fair is not equal. HMMM! It is called mental torture and abuse, and it is sometimes used in the name of organized religion. It is used by the system to try to justify its own strategy, and Prince Charles is a part of the Illuminati as are a number of other royal families.
The poor guy has no freedom. Maybe he felt he was going on account of duty and did not want to go there in the first place. The people who actually have to work for their tickets to these places are the ones who will get more out of the trip and appreciate it more than he does. After all, he gets everything done for him, so how can he really know much about what is really going on? His hosts are selective about what they show him.
I am wondering how much of an oil well it takes to feed the private jets of some of these people. Maybe like people who write advice on Yahoo! Answers the two have to find some real usefulness and purpose to their lives. LOL
I wish someone would ask him some questions about the actual diversity of life on the Galapagos Island and how you tell all these different species of birds apart. Because he does not look like you is he a different species from you, or do you just wish he was?
)))))
Maybe I make excuses for him because I feel guilty for having passed on an opportunity to shake his hand. (Someone later told me it was a wise decision on my part.)
