| I think the working members of the royal family is now down to 9 people and a dog. Only 2 of which were under 50. If only they could have foreseen this happening... |

You understand that you are blowing the minds of these prats with a reference to the Garter Principal King of Arms. |

What if this had happened right before the London Olympics? |

The Crown is a work of fiction. There are much better, real references in Philip’s many biographies. |

They would have gone on I think. All the British athletes would have been expected to wear black armbands though. |

Many people care, including the Queen’s subjects in worldwide commonwealth countries. Many have high regard for him. Projecting one’s inadequacies on another is not flattering |

Phillip also died on the anniversary of his mother-in-law's funeral.
How strange. They're saying his funeral date will be next Saturday, April 17th. But he'll have 30 mourners not 15. |

He was sent to live with his sister in Germany when he was a child. He had no choice in the matter - his mom was in an asylum and his dad abandoned him to live as a playboy in the South of France. He went to a boarding school in Germany run by a Jewish headmaster. When the headmaster was forced to flee by the Nazis to Scotland, Philip followed the headmaster to the Scottish school. Philip then fought in the war against the Nazis/Axis powers on the European seas. Anyone calling him a Nazi because of his older sisters' decisions are idiots. The guy literally battled the Nazis in WW2. Lots of aristocratic families sullied their names by supporting - explicitly or tacitly - the Nazis. There's no indication Philip was a stooge for the Nazis. |

10 bucks says Boris promised to increase the numbers allowed by then, reflecting progress on vaccination. |

Thank you for sharing. If PPs are going to judge Philip for his sisters involvement with the Nazi party, they should also credit his mother for sheltering a Jewish family in Greece during the Nazi occupation in the same period, for which she was recognized by Yad Vashem in Israel. His family broke up, and was all over the place during the war. -signed, a grandchild of Holocaust survivors. |

If its 30 mourners that solves a few problems and adds some non-family or family cousins to the list:
The Queen Prince Charles Duchess Camilla Prince Andrew Princess Anne Capt. Laurence Prince Edward Countess Sophie Prince William Duchess Kate Prince Harry* Princess Beatrice Edo Mopelli Princess Eugenie* Mike Brooksbank Peter Phillips Zara Tindall* Mike Tindall Viscount James Lady Louise David Armstrong-Jones Sarah Chatto Duke of Gloucester Duchess of Gloucester Duke of Kent Duchess of Kent Prince Michael of Kent Princess Michael of Kent Archbishop of Canterbury (religious leader) Prime Minister of the United Kingdom I don't think Duchess Meghan is coming as its rumored she's nearing month 8 of her pregnancy. There was a stupid British paper that said Fergie would be there - not a chance. I also don't think Peter Phillips will be bringing the woman he is divorcing as he was caught last month at another woman's house. *Pregnant spouse or post-partum. |

He literally just announced the new numbers on Monday and they don't take effect until the 12th. He would look like a fool to up it with only 5 days between it. |
