Prince Harry III
There's a remarkable profile of Prince Harry in the Sunday Times which has to be read to be believed.After reading it you have to wonder why so many otherwise intelligent people believe of all the people in the world, he is the second best choice to be our leader, to have the final say on the laws that are passed in this country etc.
The whole shambles also reflects badly on Eton. The Sunday Times has an explanation of sorts.
As one Eton contemporary said last week: “Any pupil at Eton gets fed up with having PC liberal values shoved at them every day
Is it political correctness gone mad that has made Harry the way he is?
Update: Via Michael in the comments (kind of) I find this in the Independent
"So it might all have been so much worse: if the boys had got what they wanted when they went into the shop, Prince William might have been photographed trying to look like a black man in primitive clothing, while Harry would have been posing in the death's-head uniform of the Waffen SS. Now that would have made the party swing."
It scarely bears thinking about. According to the BBC Michael Howard is to go on the offensive again tomorrow. This could be just what is needed to restore his poll ratings. As the country wakes up to what it is in for in 20 or 30 years' time, there is an unmistakeable whiff of Republicanism in the air.
