Joined-Up Thinking

The Prince of Wales' income, from the Duchy of Cornwall, rose by nearly a fifth last year.

Cornwall is one of the ten poorest regions in Europe, and receives aid from the EU Regional Development Fund.

I wonder if these two facts are in any way connected?

I wonder why so few other people seem to be wondering the same thing?

I wonder if it's something to do with the injunction in the House of Commons to prevent Members from tabling questions on the Duchy of Cornwall?
