Some of his other comments at the bottom of the page are hilarious.

He is about as politically incorrect as you can get.

I think he's great he genuinely doesn't give a f**k, and good on him for it!


He sums up what some of us have been vilified over for years, it's not racism he's just taking the p*ss

I'm not into the Royals much but I do quite like him, he's come out with some absolute belters over the years. I bet the Royals PR staff must cringe sometimes when he's being let out in public.

He's a genius - looks people in the eye and says what he thinks. If he gets a response it's game on.
As for this latest 'outrage', "The Philippines must be half empty - you're all here running the NHS,", what's so bad about that?
If this is really what he said, what is so offensive? If we paid our own nurses a better rate then perhaps we wouldn't need the good services of migrant labour. I read it as complementing the Filipino people on their efforts to prop up our flagging NHS. How is this racist or controversial?

And as for the other outrageous comments he has made, the best known are over a twelve year period. Hardly a frequent bo!!ock dropper is he!

I love him!!

He's brilliant. He's just saying what most people think, especially his generation who have been around when things were very different. They didnt grow up in 'multi-cultural britain', most of their lives were when britain was Great Britain and you could fly the union jack with pride and all that and the PC brigades weren't even born.

Annoys the hell out of me, BECAUSE he comes out with stuff that would get others crucified, and, because of his age and who he is, he not only gets away with it, but it somehow makes him more lovable.

Nasty old man that should be taken out of the public eye if he can't behave.

How many such 'crucifiable' incidents can you recall? And be sure that he what said was quoted verbatim by the press?

Aww come on alcazar, he's by far the best out of a bad bunch. I think he's about the only one I would sit and have a drink with TBH.

I'm not a royalist either but Prince Philip makes you proud to be British, he just says it like most of us see things. Keep up the good your work

It still cracks me up when someone asked him what he thought Stoke whilst he was on a visit there, he commented along the lines of it being a ghastly place, i think he was far too kind with that one though.

He is a pretty sharp cookie especially when it comes to witty replies. I have got a lot of time for him, he always says it like it is.

Yes, Les, Because he CAN.....the can get away with saying stuff the rest of us would be hung out for.

And he's supposed to be an ambassador for this country?

Not in MY name........

Wasn't it the greasy Greek who referred to the Japs as "Slitty eyed little yellow devils"?

Anyone else chuckle at the irony of Jeff complaining about Phil insulting the Japs by calling him a greasy Greek
