Yes, but as in the human body, he was a NECESSARY arse. GMB is hopeless without him in the same way you'd fall off the toilet without your arse. And talking of arses, look how boring and pointless the briefings by POTUS now are compared to when the arse-in-chief was president! We need these arses to amuse us even though they talk complete and utter crap most of the time. Compare, for example, the leaders of UK, France and Germany. Which has the biggest arse in charge (or not) ?

Maybe, never seen him in action, but he has made some very pertinent points.

Infuriated me by repeating the lie that the UK had the highest death rate from CV in Europe, whereas even the BBC cited six other countries in Europe last December with a higher percentage death rate.

Next question, or two.

Will Harry attend his grandfathers funeral?

If so, what will he wear?

An appallingly worded and insensitive announcement of The Duke of Edinburgh's passing by Harry and that woman. They even turn his death into something that only relates to them:

How long before that woman says it was PP who made the reported racist comment about the baby? They disgust me.

Why does the woman have to say anything? It is a Buck House anouncment. Has Kengiston Palace said anything? Of course not. Think he will be at the funeral not her. Black arm band with swastika on it maybe. Not allowed to wear a military uniform of course.

None of his former honorary uniforms, Col of Marines etc, but can't he wear his Blues & Royals or AAC uniform?

Uniform Act 1894. The wearing of uniform under this section is not to contravene
the provisions of the Uniform Act 1894: an extract of which is reproduced below:

2.
(1) It shall not be lawful for any person not serving in Her Majesty’s military
forces to wear without Her Majesty’s permission the uniform of any of those
forces, or any dress having the appearance or bearing any of the regimental or
other distinctive marks of any such uniform; provided that this enactment shall
not prevent:

Having said as much, better they had said less.

Respect and condolences to the Royal family. He held and served his station well over an extended time. The Queen picked a good one, as did he.

Will the ginger twerp return for the funeral? He must be on the Valium at the thought of facing his 'old' family (up to 30 of them I read). Philip and Ginger - service versus self-service.

If Megain never visits the UK again it would be too soon.

Loathsome wretches. A fool of a man led by a scheming lying woman into a foul midden of self-praise and self-promotion.

As quarantine is for 10 days, and if the funeral is held in, say 9 days time, the ginger one will miss it. I believe the funeral is going to be at Windsor Castle and I can't see him being allowed to serve his quarantine there as that would be too much risk to HM.

Best he stay wherever he's shacked up with that tart - I, for one, won't weep if he never sets foot on these islands again.

From the Daily Express:
PRINCE HARRY may be allowed to use a diplomatic exemption to avoid the normal Covid quarantine when he jets to the UK from the US to attend Prince Philip's funeral, according to reports. The Duke of Sussex is widely expected to make the 5,460-mile journey by private jet ahead of the ceremonial funeral for his grandfather.

Harry, 36, is not expected to be joined by Meghan, 39, when he flies in for the sombre affair as she is heavily pregnant with their second baby, a girl.

Under the Government's Covid travel rules, overseas arrivals have to quarantine for 10 days after touching down in England.

Travellers in quarantine are permitted to be released five days after arriving in the UK if they test negative for the virus.

If he were to quarantine, I know a suitable suite used by Royal Princes in years gone by. Presently unoccupied I believe though possibly haunted.
