Given that my grandmother died from TB due to her working with noxious chemicals in a WW1 munition factory, you can see why I'm happy to cast the "hero" net more widely

Re: Prince Phillip
All this fawning over an old man who would be hard put to give them the time of day .Really the entire concept of monarchy in this day and age is bizarre .
The fact that vast amounts of public money not to mention deference should go towards funding a mega rich family on the basis of an accident of birth is absurd .

Re: Prince Phillip
His doctor bumped him off with an injection of morphine in the neck so he would make the morning edition of the Times rather than the low class tabloids that were printed later. ( if he died on his own the next day )Cant have the kings death announced in the rubbish press
