Official: Prince Philip is Dead, 9th April 2021

[cyril_smear]

Regardless of your opinion, a wife has lost her cousin, sons and daughters have lost their father, and children have lost their grandad.

FIFY

Who cares. They can have a different relationship without taxpayer funded millions and land. Shower of cunts.

I was referring to the Guardian story, him seeming to let the Queen take the lead is how it works, so the story is pointless as it doesn't reflect on him at all, just royal expectation.

Christ sake. I just put the radio on, only to hear Claudia Winkleman reading out a listener's email saying that he was "heartbroken" at the death of PP, and had closed his business for the weekend as a mark of respect. What the fuck is wrong with people?

"It’s a pleasure to be in a country that isn’t ruled by its people," Prince Philip to Paraguayan dictator Alfredo Stroessner in 1963.

Stroessner is said to have had a 'hareem' of young girls. Some as young as thirteen.

At least Diana had some basic charm about her. It's hard to imagine people being genuinely upset about this racist old ghoul.

Have we had this.....?

They've had so many complaints about the wall to wall coverage, they've had to close the complaint system down.

Most of the country has gone insane. Feel so alienated from this. Have a lot of anger simmering today

My mum was a very nice person though. No one cheered her death cos she was a compassionate kind person who never did a racism nor lived a life of unforgivable privilege and obscene splendour at the expense of millions

Yeah but how many Sainsbury's did she open?

Have a wank, see if that helps?

im still laughing at Smooth FM responding to the news by playing Imagine

I didnt watch The Crown - how was he portrayed on that, out of interest?

A cheating, petulant twat in the early days.

 

[JuanTwoThree]

The Mail's unmoderated comments about BBC coverage being OTT mostly agree that it was/is.

I looked so you don't have to.

I was out in thornton heath yesterday, and never heard anyone mention prince philip. I don't think there's the response to his death there was to the queen mother's. it's hard to know quite what's going on elsewhere but I think most people don't care and even people who might care probably care less because we've all had a shit year. I don't think most of the country's gone mad, only a small proportion who weren't entirely sane to start with but who's madness is being played up by the fawning media

To those of you celebrating the death of a frail 99 year old man, take a look at yourselves, and recognise that your parents too will die. Then ask yourselves how you would feel if their neighbours cheered their death.

Sometimes this place is beyond disgusting, at times, it makes a sewer look like sweet water.

To those glorying in the death of a good man, fuck you, you are below the status of vermin.

It’s OK, these are just charming gaffes. They demonstrate a playful sense of humour.

It's certainly going to be interesting to see how the audience figures play out.

Nowadays, although the BBC’s reach among the UK population remains enormous, the growth of Netflix and YouTube means audiences have somewhere else to turn.

Executives – and royal courtiers – will be nervously studying the release of television viewing figures and seeing if the decision to replace Friday night’s episode of EastEnders with tributes to Philip will expose the fact that the British public’s appetite for such material is limited.

Individuals working in BBC News suggested the long-planned scale of the coverage is because the corporation still bore the scars from the death of the Queen Mother in 2002, when its output was deemed insufficiently deferential by rightwing newspapers.

BBC flooded with complaints over coverage of Prince Philip’s death

Corporation opened dedicated complaints form on its website to deal with high volume of comments

Talking of the Mail...my old Dad moaned to me this morning that his daily rag had 31 pages coverage of the royal death.
I did ask him if he thought that only 1 page extra than the normal rf guff was respectful enough?

 

[CNT36]

I get a daily email from the Guardian. Todays had the ;subject "The Guardian Today: Queen and royal family mourn Prince Philip as tributes pour in" but they didn't include an article and went straight to Northern Ireland. One article near the bottom about the ginger one and quarantining to get back or something. I never read it. Little victories.
