Prince Charles's private income increases by 4%

Last year, the income of Prince Charles rose with 4% but on the other hand, his legal charges were almost halved. The reason for all of this is that many overseas travel of the Prince were paid by the prince's hosts, Sir Michael, a principal private secretary added. About the overseas trips, he said: ''It depends where the government wants them to go.'' Sir Michael admitted the economic failure had affected the way the prince's household had been run. He said that this is ''living in the real world’’! The people of Britain do not care much about this happening.

My reaction:
As if, I am interested in the income of Prince Charles and his ''charming'' wife. Not at all do I care about that! Those people have enough money to spend. We should care about the economic crisis and not about some prince's rising income. Why do these things always make it through the front-page of a paper? I mean, talk about things that matter to the rural inhabitants of Britain, like their incomes! I think and I hope that many people are thinking the same way as I do!
