I am sure, like most people, his opions and attitudes have changed over the years.

I would hate to be confronted with some of my opinions as they were 40,50,60 years ago. Society has changed, I have changed.

He's an old man and quite sick. He's from a generation of entitled privileged white men who never realise other people have feelings. Very insensitive arrogant and ignorant. No excuse who you are.

I've just read on Al Jazeera website, an article about the dreadful racism of Philip,.He doesn't try to offend, he IS offensive etc,giving many examples.
We have heard all this before and sometimes excused it as his sense of humour or his age.
In a way it's lucky he's out of the picture at the moment with allthats going on!
