im a bit worried about this there are arguments for and against this
The Royal yacht was never just used as a jolly boat for the Royal Family it does suit a function as a diplomatic function and did this very well
but in a political climate where cuts are being made across the board
should we really be creating further expenses instead of dealing with the expenses we already have.

Just because you hate all things English - don't mangle the language. What's a yatch?

PS Don't SHOUT.
