Fracking exploration licenses include site owned by the Queen, A

Description

After the crisis in Ukraine - not to mention the Budget - Britain is ever more set on a course of seeking sources of energy wherever they can be found. And chief among these is fracking. We're now up to the 14th round of exploration licences, with the number of sites around the country likely to go into three figures. And Channel Four News has learned that planning permission to drill into shale was given to a fracking company on land owned by the Queen.
