The government has announced a partnership with the Crown Estate to help speed up building offshore wind farms, with "some" of the money going to King.

Speaking to Sky's Kay Burley, energy secretary Ed Miliband said the collaboration for the new state-owned Great British Energy would help "turbo-charge" the "clean energy revolution".

But Mr Miliband couldn't go into detail about how much would benefit to the King, saying "the money that GB energy puts in will generate a return for the taxpayer and for great British energy. The Crown Estate has its own finances."

He added: "Some goes to the king. I think that's a declining percentage but those are governed by separate arrangements."
