Lizzy Windsor's husband? what a guy! pity the mother of the victim waited 7 years to reveal this.. Shame on him,  Off with their heads! Viva la Revolucion!!!

Prince Philip mocked an Army cadet, blinded during a Real IRA bomb attack, by poking fun at his dress sense.


As the Queen asked Stephen Menary how much he could see Philip said: "Not a lot, judging by that tie."

Stephen was wearing the uniform of the Middlesex Cadet Force, which includes a red, blue and yellow tie.

Mr Menary was 14-years-old when he picked up a torch bomb that was thrown at Territorial Army barracks in west London, by the Real IRA in 2001.

He was blinded and lost part of his left arm.

The comment, made by the Duke of Edinburgh during a tree-planting ceremony in Hyde Park, London seven years ago, was revealed by Stephen's mum Carol.

She said: "Prince Philip is completely out of touch with reality, he is from another world. After he said it there was just stunned silence.

"The Queen looked like she wanted to plant Philip next to the tree. She just looked at him open mouthed. I don't think she could believe what he had said.

"I think there was no malice behind it, it was a tactless thing to say.

"Mocking the sight of a blind boy is something, even by his standards. He is a strange man with a very strange sense of humour."

Frankly, I hate political correctness. Not only is it socially and intellectually inhibiting, it validates the people who walk around all day trying ever so hard to be offended.
