King Charles and Prince William face fight over taxpayer funds on Dartmoor

More than £13m of subsidies mainly paid to tenants of Duchy of Cornwall have done little to restore nature in national park

King Charles and Prince William could be dragged into a bitter fight over £13m of taxpayer funds paid over the past decade for nature restoration on Dartmoor national park.

The funds have partly been paid to tenants farming land in the national park that is owned by the Duchy of Cornwall, a land and property estate controlled by the heir to the throne.
