If it was a Cheque to the Charity
it could be traced

The Problem was,
it was raw cash

[bots]

The Prince of Wales accepted a suitcase containing a million euros in cash from a former Qatari prime minister, the Sunday Times has reported.

The paper says this was one of three cash donations from Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim totalling three million euros.

Clarence House said donations from the sheikh were passed immediately to one of the prince's charities and all the correct processes were followed.

There is no suggestion the payments were illegal.

According to the Sunday Times, Prince Charles received the three cash donations in person from the former prime minister between 2011 and 2015.

It is claimed that on one occasion the money was handed over in a holdall at a meeting at Clarence House. On another, the paper reported the cash was contained in carrier bags from the department store Fortnum and Mason.

In a statement, Clarence House said: "Charitable donations received from Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim were passed immediately to one of the prince's charities, who carried out the appropriate governance and have assured us that all the correct processes were followed."

The funds were received by the Prince of Wales's Charitable Fund, whose stated aim is to "transform lives and build sustainable communities", by awarding grants to good causes in fields such as conservation, education, health and social inclusion.

The fund told the Sunday Times that its trustees had concluded the donor was legitimate and that its auditors had signed off on the donation.

Donations to Prince Charles's charities have come under scrutiny in recent months following allegations that one of them offered a Saudi donor help to secure a UK honour and citizenship.

The Metropolitan Police said earlier this year that it is investigating the claims about the Prince's Foundation under the Honours (Prevention of Abuses) Act 1925.

The foundation is understood to be offering its full co-operation and Clarence House has said that Prince Charles had no knowledge of the alleged offer of honours or citizenship on the basis of donation to his charities.

Michael Fawcett, the prince's former valet and chief executive of the foundation, resigned in November as the charity investigated the claims.

The investigation found that he co-ordinated with "fixers" over an honorary CBE for billionaire businessman Mahfouz Marei Mubarak bin Mahfouz, who denies any wrongdoing.

But it concluded that there was no evidence that trustees were aware of the co-ordination.

The March visit to Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas, during which the couple were heavily criticised for images that smacked of “colonialism”, saw the pair travel by charter jet - and their staff by scheduled flights for a planning trip - at a cost of £226,383.

It was the most expensive official royal tour of 2021-22.

Unfortunately, the sterling work the Royals do isn’t reported; unlike the few negatives that arise now and then that show they are as human as anybody else.
In truth, they do a hell of a lot more good than they do harm.

In the case of Prince Charles, this is just one of his charitable initiatives:

The Princes Trust.

The Prince's Trust help 11 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed or struggling at school to transform their lives.
Since The Prince of Wales set up The Prince’s Trust in 1976, more than 870,000 disadvantaged young people across the UK have been supported by the Trust and helped to move into work, education or training. www.princes-trust.org.uk

The Prince's Trust International

The Prince's Trust International works to combat the global issue of youth unemployment and focuses on supporting young people overseas. www.princestrustinternational.org

Obviously any money to charity is welcomed but it must be accounted for properly, otherwise it just seems underhand and seedy.

……“[The money] was passed immediately to his charities and it was his charities who decided to accept the money – that is a decision for them. And they did so, and as they confirmed, it followed all the right processes, and the auditors looked at it.


“The Prince of Wales operates on advice. Situations, contexts change over the years.”
Clarence House said it had received assurances from the prince’s charity that the donations, first reported by The Sunday Times, had been the subject of “all the correct processes”.

In a statement, it said: “Charitable donations received from Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim were passed immediately to one of the prince’s charities, who carried out the appropriate governance and have assured us that all the correct processes were followed.
……..
It is said Charles will never again accept cash donations, (which was not illegal) and hasn’t for some years, lessons have been learned, so it’s a bit like beating a dead donkey. If it surfaces that there was indeed dodgy dealings going on, with Charles's knowledge, then that would be a different matter.

When it comes to Charles, my take is that the Queen is an almost impossible act to follow, she was 'perfect' really. Charles hasn't been perfect, like most of us aren't. But he has done wonderful work for his charities, and while I'm not a particular fan and never have been, he deserves his chance even if he has made mistakes in the past. Haven't we all, without the spotlight always on our every move. :shrug:

that still doesn't mean that the whole thing wasn't dodgy. Passed immediately to the charities. Were they present when the money was given to the prince or were they in a completely different continent. The auditors just verify what they have been told, so again that means nothing

Meanwhile at the invictus games.

Hmmm....

[Injured British troops competing in Prince Harry’s Invictus Games are to wear the logo of the UK’s biggest arms exporter in an ‘immoral’ sponsorship deal condemned by veterans and humanitarian campaigners.

Members of the Invictus UK team will wear shirts with the logo of BAE Systems for the first time when they compete at trials in Sheffield later this month after the company paid a six-figure sum.

The arms manufacturer has sold billions of pounds of weaponry around the world, including to Saudi Arabia for its war in Yemen, which began in 2015. Since then, many thousands of civilians have been killed or maimed amid allegations of war crimes…..

…..Last month Prince Harry spoke of the need to remove the scourge of landmines.
‘If he wants to promote peace then he should consider how he feels about the involvement of the UK’s biggest arms companies in an event like this.

‘It would very hard to think of a less appropriate partner than BAE Systems – it is akin to having a cigarette company sponsoring Cancer Research or having Dracula sponsor a blood bank.’]
..................
Thank God for William and Kate, the really decent Royals with morals and integrity.

The cost of their tour had nothing to do with Charles, he wasn't on the tour. So can I say I'm bringing up Harry because he's Charles's son? :hee:
What is your opinion on the Harry/Invictus games sponsership BTW? You didn't say.

[Glenn.]

We are not discussing Meghan…did you not get the brief :hee:

They handled controversy well and with dignity....they knew they were going to have to confront the situation and got on with the job...

Unlike Meghan and Harrys trip to S.Africa...a mission to highlight the treatment, rape and corruption of young women only for them to make it all about them... "nobody asked me if I was OK..." :bawling:

Did YOU not get the brief? :conf:

That quote from Rusti was her reply to Jordan who had once again brought up Kate and William with this:

That particular trip was worth it just to see how badly it blew up in their face

As if you would need to find an excuse to bring up Harry (or Meghan), your obsession is common knowledge :skull:

I don't really have much opinion on something from years ago that has only being brought up now to deflect from the actual topic but I imagine those who felt strongly against it refused to take part? maybe you can scour the daily mail archives for a riveting follow up.

The Charles thing was years ago. You're so unaware or oblivious in several different ways that its quite funny. :hehe:

No point I engaging with you, you seem to think this is blood money, whennits a simple gift from a very nice bloke from a country with no human rites issues.

Your main issue is its blood money, you made a big song and dance about it earlier in the thread.

It's being proven it is not blood money from one of the dodgy nations, or from a dodgy source..

Yet when it has been shown that Harry's invictus games is part funded by arms dealers you say nothing about it, you just lift your massive carpet and sweep the latest **** under it.

[Jordan.]

No human rights issue in Qatar... where being homosexual is illegal. Of course you would think that.

It was reported years ago, its being regurgitated again now for some reason :suspect:
Parmy made us aware of the Harry/Invictus games disgrace. Something doesn't have to be in the press before it can be referred to and an opinion on it given.

Where/when was it first reported? All current articles imply this is new information that has come to light :conf:

Or Meghan accepting very pricey earrings gifted by a Saudi Crown Prince and wearing them to a formal dinner weeks after he had ordered the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Years ago, like I said. I'd heard it all before. I believe it was even in the bio of Charles by Tom Bower. How would they only be finding out now about something that happened 7 - 10 years ago...

Yes it is illegal
in many nations is the Middle East
you would not expect them to change.

It is a Religion Rule that is far stronger,
than the UK.


Every nation has that right

Mmm, that's interesting.

I can't find anything about it online and none of the reports mention it was known before and its odd that no-one has mentioned its already in the public realm.

Wonder why they are rehashing it now if it's well known? Wonder if there is more to come or just a slow news day?

Seems pretty murky to be digging dirt on the guy now, especially as it won't be long till he is King and then they will all be fawning over him

[Cherie]

It was suggested thar No.10 leaked it again in retaliation for Charles speaking out against the migrants to Rwanda issue

[AnnieK]

Jeez....what a poor show.

[bots]

it was a newspaper that highlighted it. Boris doesn't give enough of a crap to have leaked something, so i don't think he would be behind it. It was more likely Andrew miffed that he is being kept away from the big money opportunities

BBC Text:

[The Prince of Wales took a £1 million payment
from the family of Osama bin Laden,
according to a new investigation by
the Sunday Times.
The paper reports that Prince Charles had
a meeting with two of Osama bin Laden's
half-brothers in October 2013 - two years after
the Al-Qaeda leader was killed.
Prince Charles reportedly accepted
the money despite initial objections
of advisers at Clarence House
and the Prince of Wales
Charitable Fund (PWCF) - the recipient of the donation.
A Clarence House spokeswoman
said: "The Prince of Wales' Charitable Fund
has assured us that thorough due diligence
was undertaken in accepting this donation."
They added that the decision to accept the money
was down to the charity's trustees.
Sir Ian Cheshire, chairman of PWCF,
said the donation was agreed "wholly"
by trustees at the time.]

Why do you think he's so in favour of all this climate change nonsense?

Because it's nothing more than a money making scheme for the elites.

A suitcase is a physical thing - as is the money inside it.

But, I wonder how much money (if any?) is being transferred electronically...:shocked::nono:
