I want all entries in this file to inherit the tag so it should be
"filetags" I believe. My other tests suggest it is my

,----
| ("j" "Journal" entry
|   (file+datetree "journal.org")
|   "* %?\n	:PROPERTIES:\n	:DateCreated: %T\n	:END:\n%i\n%a")
`----

datetree format that might be stopping the tag match occurring.

Or am I confusing issues here?

In my journal file I have

#+TITLE:  my journal
#+FILETAGS: :journal:

I would expect C-c a m journal

to show all journal entries in a standard result list.
