Let me say I'm no fan of the Monarchy and Prince Philip in particular.
I did read through a list of his gaffes and so called jokes. Seems he was excused his insults because of who he was and it was laughingly passed of as his 'direct' manner.
Of course I feel sorry for anyone who has lost their soulmate, but find his reverence very over the top.
I watched some of the funeral and was in awe of the whole spectacle, which Britain is so good at.
