Do you contribute?
I'm not trying to cause an arguement in this, but why ask the Royal Family?
They pay more tax than you ever will and still look after the land they own.

Excuse me but I offered no criticism in my statement, merely a reply to the question. It's a well-documented fact that shooting is just one of their hobbies.
Incidentally, of course they pay more tax than I ever will. The difference is that I worked to earn my (taxed) small pension, which is substantially less than any Royal's inherited income, and I look after the "land" I own (my 3-bed semi) with as much conscientiousness (finances permitting) as HMQ maintains her many estates.
