HRH Prince Charles – Channel 4 Dispatches

Posted on

For those who are so inclined to watch television in the UK this evening might I suggest Dispatches on Channel 4 at 8pm (20.00)? You will, I admit, see me discussing the tax affairs of HRH Prince Charles. Not in a much depth as I'd wished, since this started as one third of the programme and will not be when broadcast, but I will still making the point that the tax rules applied to Prince Charles are nothing like the tax rules applied to anyone else in the UK (bar, maybe, his mother).

Taking part in the making of television documentaries is always a risky business. You have no control over the final output. But in this case my motive was clear, and I make no apology for it. One day HM Revenue & Customs will be His Majesty's Revenue & Customs. In which case HM should comply with the rules that apply to everyone else.

He does not. That's not good enough.
