Loudmouth Racist attending Buck House Party today!
The Duke of Edinburgh grew up in Germany but left in 1933 at the age of 12, following his Jewish ex-headmaster. Not everybody would have taken such a drastic anti-racist stand at such a tender age.
He was born in Germany, is in his 80s and he occasionally makes a comment that is considered offensive by today's standards. I'm in my forties and grew up in an 'enlightened society' where I have to refer to someone as chair for no sensible reason.
Beauty & truth tend to be in the eye of the beholder, discrimination is going that way. I note not much censure in the papers about 'Spanish practices' etc But plenty about 'Jerry Built' yet we attack someone who has done little to warrant it.
