Not sure that their need is greater than the many medical, humanitarian and educational charities that the Trust gives to. I don't see why the trust should effectively subsidise the film industry which is what they will be doing if they give up and go home - which seemingly isn't an option anyway.

However given the scandals close to home... surely there is a point where the accounting is so creative that it becomes a criminal rather than a civil matter? Surely the taxmen must be after their cut too?
