Royal Transition and Public Perception

Right now the Treasury are flying more kites than you would see on top of Parliament Hill on a windy day.

This comes ahead of next week’s budget - the last before the general election.

But one policy is particularly eye-catching. It's the idea that the Tories are about to tax non-doms - the flagship Labour policy. Whether you want to call it shooting Keir’s fox or stealing his clothes, it would be an audacious move.

Also, how do the Royal family square the circle of remaining in the public eye while wanting maximum privacy at this difficult time? Couldn’t their communications be more effective?
