It's still bizarre to me that an island nation runs its coatal rescue as a charity rather than a core government-funded public service.

That said, Dispatches revealed that the royals get rent from the police, fire and prison services too.

Pure Feudal BS. Perhaps charities like this should cancel their royal patronage until rents are removed.
