I should point out that I am a republican and see no real merit in the Royal Family but reading an article the other day on Charles now he qualifies for a pension and bus pass it struck me how mixed up the man is. The article delved into his mind set and the man who seems to have a social conscience but still takes £19m from various sources of public and private money. He was, it seems intensely jealous of the firs Mrs Windsor and does not spend a lot of time with the current one. A true enigma! |

Its a vehicle to ingratiate royalty into society and the figure head has little to do with the work the organisation does. As a matter of interest who actually funds the Trust? |

Voluntary income represented the largest source of funding for organisation, totalling £18 million in 2009–10 (representing a very small increase on 2008–09. Public Sector income (contracts and grants to deliver support to young people from statutory bodies) fell from £17 million to just under £14 million.
Charles does not put any money into it. I would much rather Dennis Skinner as the figure head! |

and would it have gotten that level of donation if it were headed by Dennis Skinner?
who are these donators?
how do you know they arent people involved with Charlie?

The facts are on the web site and in their published accounts.
The Prince had 12 official engagements on the trust one of which was a garden party funded from the privy purse again freely available from official web sites and companies house.
I am not doubting the work the trust carries out is laudable and seeks to help but Royal patronage is..........medieval in my humble, short sighted, republican opinion! |

patronage gives something a little credence with those that have money to donate.
as said, do you think the fund would get the donations if it wasnt what it is?
of course not, people would just moan about it being the governments job to fund small business start ups.
as i asked before, do you know WHO donated this money?
you cannot be certain they arent people from Charlies circle of friends and contacts, rather than just millions of members of the general public. |

The accounts record donations from private individuals totalling £3m mostly from estate bequeaths. Additionally the accounts show income from founding partners who seem to be large businesses (so its a tax relief issue) And ok you have sussed me I do not think that Charlie has any concept of the work his trust does and Dennis Skinner by the way has done more for the working classes of this country than the last 20 generations of the Royal family. |

"still takes £19m from various sources of public and private money."
Just a quick correction. The heir to the throne does not get any public money. Price Charles being the heir to the throne became the Duke of Cornwall at birth and all his income is from the Duchy. As soon as he becomes King that title will pass to William and his Royal income will stop and he will then live on the income from the duchy.

I didn't say he gets money from the civil list. The charity receives funding from public and private sources.

Are you suggesting that HRH The Prince of Wales takes an income from the charity he set up to help the young?

No that's not what I am suggesting. Read the narrative!

I've read the narrative, and its the standard inaccurate and just plain wrong mudslinging spread by envious republicans in order to damage our royal family.
And in the usual way when pulled up on fact you then deny what you have already said.
Rather than coming up with all this shit to justify your political aims why dont you grow a pair and say "I want to remove the monarchy by any means and replace it with a politician". |

I would remove all of them and replace them with a house brick or a wire coat hanger. Something of some meaning and relevance to the majority of people in this country. |
