Prince charles has a charity but he does NOT fund it himself?

In fact, he does substantially fund it himself (mostly from the revenues of the Duchy of Cornwall). But the charity also accepts donations from other sources.

Decisions on that are taken by the trustees of the foundation - not normally by the Prince of Wales - this article is suggesting that in this case, he made the decision which is possible though unusual - I'd like to see some evidence to support it. Regardless of who made the decision, it was likely based, in part, on the principle that you don't blame people for who they happen to be related to, or what their surname is.

Actually, I agree with you here. Charles is getting an unfair bad rap here. He has done much good in the world with the charities he sponsors, but the “get Charles” crowd will never portray Charles in any good light. He is not a bad man. His brother Andrew is, Harry because of Megan and his own stupidity is, but Charles’ Achilles heel is some of his “Green” points of view. However, most Europeans, including the future king, his son William, all hew to the Greenie baloney party line.

And all of the EU is suffering now, since the Ukraine War began, from their global climate change beliefs, to the detriment of all of their countries. The EU’ers are globalist fools that will pay for their illogical, irrational and unscientific viewpoints when it comes to the environment. Enviroweenie idiots all.
