Nation split on whether Royal Family is a luxury we cannot afford

A new study says the nation remains undecided on whether or not the Royal Family is a luxury we cannot afford. Conducted by Ipsos, the study comes as the Queen prepares to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee.

The poll found a majority of people think the Queen should remain as monarch as long as possible rather than abdicating. It also found 40% of people think Prince Charles would make a good king, while 20% think he would do a bad job.

Ipsos surveyed 1,039 British adults about the future of the Monarchy. Those polled were asked if they agree or disagree that the royal family is an expensive luxury the country cannot afford.
