How is it a private conversation, he was talking to a member of the public, not chatting with friends.
And at a public engagement.
Exactly.

the best the BBC can come up with is that the woman in question can't accurately remember what Charles sad, just that it was something like comparing putin with the nazi's

so, another non-story blown up by the rabbid media pack?

Whoever has the point, the lady in question will probably get hounded for questions now.

Charlie Chuckles left school with two A-levels in History and French, grades B and C.

His son Prince "Rodney Trotter" Harry left Eton with two A-Levels in Art and Geography, grades B and D.

No wonder they're all an embarrassment to the country, not just Charlie's brother Andrew Duke of York who was reported by the United States Ambassador to Kyrgyzstan, discussing bribery in Kyrgyzstan and the investigation into the Al-Yamamah arms dealing.

They are a complete shower yet Brits keep lapping it up. Bring on the Republic.

So does that mean the aristocracy will be as sympathetic to Putin as they were to Hitler?

Because our Oxbridge-educated Bar-qualified establishment elite do such a fine job...don't they.

What a complete moron, Saying something that idiotic about a country which lost over 35 million people in the WWII, without that huge sacrifice of blood, the UK would most likely be speaking German, just like "English Chas" great grandfather in fact !

There goes our next head of state, heaven help us.

One of the big players in the Ukraine conflagration is a Neo-Nazi Ukrainian nationalist organisation called Svoboda, previously called the Social-National Party of Ukraine, who happen to be opposing Putin.



Nice little symbol they got there.

If I were to guess, I am thinking he is comparing the way H did business with regards land grabs before 1939, actually right up to the invasion on Poland.

I wonder if he perhaps would like to compare it the land grab his relatives under took all around the world in the 18th Century, quite happy to slaughter the local savages or the land grab that resulted in the Boer war, with 10's of thousands of women and children dieing in British controlled concentration camps, again sanctioned by his own relatives.

The fool needs a serious case of STFU, look doopy, nod and shake hands, the last bit being his particular specialism.

So because Britain did some nasty things a century or so ago, our royals should put up and shut up about Russian land grabs and what not today?

I have no real learning on the Boer War so cannot comment. It is on my reading list when I get around to it (books, not internet).
But this was a comment on his comment for that particular event not what may or may not have happened in the past with the Royal Families sanction, and all the establishment that took part and benefited or not from any actions.

I think the royals should leave politics to the politicians and stick to pomp and circumstance.

Yes, that's exactly what they should do. They are not required nor even entitled to have an opinion on political matters. If they want to be politicians, they can do the Tony Benn and give up their titles and privilege and stand for election. I wonder how many of us would vote for a President Charles Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg?

Excellent, about time somebody in the public eye said it instead of pussyfooting around pretending nothing is wrong in the Ukraine like the rest of Europe.
Regarding the Ukrainian government killing it's own population?

Erm, many of whom they killed themselves, including the many Soviet ethnic minorities who preferred to fight for the Germans than tolerate further Soviet repression and murder, including the Soviets' starving to death over a million Ukrainians in the 1930's, those killed by punishment battalions, those Soviet PoW's who were then sent to labour camps for having surrendered and those sent to attack the German lines with no weapons.

You need to read a lot more history before you weigh in with your "opinions".

Utter tosh! Where is the evidence that we went around the world telling the natives 'We are only invading to protect the minority English speaking population'. It was more like 'Hey, we've brought you the benefits of western civilisation, with christianity thrown in to boot! Hey! Are they Diamonds/Gold reserves etc littering the place? We'll get rid of them for you....'
