RICHARD Grant says the Queen does not pay tax (Letters, July 3).

I am afraid she does pay tax, like other members of the Royal Family.

Perhaps Richard Grant should find this out before writing.

However, the Queen works fulltime, unlike some others that I know of her age.

She does not own Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle. Her own homes are Sandringham and Balmoral.

MRS D.WOOD, Bitterne Manor, Southampton.
