“and the King laughed because he had two”

Charles isn’t king yet because he doesn’t have any.

It’s her home. Does she have to keep everything under lock and key under her own roof? How would you like it if your maid/cook/gardner/handyman helped himself to your stuff? Or maybe because the Queen is rich she is therefore not entitled to the common decency everyone else can expect? Maybe it’s OK if the help pilfer her light bulbs and toilet paper too?

Not only that, but for those who are in service in such proximity to the Sovereign and presumably vetted for character, it is additionally disgraceful to engage in such conduct. I would think that conservatives would understand, appreciate and embrace the most critical concept at stake here that underpins our entire ideological foundation:

If it is not yours, you are not entitled to take it.

Disappointing to see envious advocacy of wealth redistribution here, whether it's in via government sanctioned confiscation or individual theft.

Yeah, I caught the totally politically-incorrect reference to Brazil nuts.

Is taking a few of the Queen’s nuts like poaching the King’s deer?

Robin Hood would be facepalming right about now.
