Prince edward and Trooping the Colour

[Hysteresis]

Watched it again today, Fantastic Display of British Tradition,
BUT WHAT WAS THAT PRINCE "PRICK" EDWARD, doing wearing a senior ranking military uniform complete with medals.
Here is the guy who could not take the rigours of Marine training, and backs out 'cos he couldn't hack it, and now dares to don a senior military uniform complete with medals he hasn't got the balls to earn.
What military exposure has this prick been exposed to.
This kind of display does Royalty no good what so ever.
I am a royalist supporter by the way.

I suppose it's like an honorary degree - they get handed out willy-nilly.

At least in an Honorary degree situation, the honour is being bestowed on someone who has achieved something in life or done some public service for the benefit of others, but this little Pri*k has done absolutely nothing to justify wearing a military Uniform and Medals he has never earned. He has never seen Military Action and doubt he could never survive such an ordeal, he certainly has not displayed any properties to warrant him wearing medals
The only thing he has done is failed at trying to run a ridiculous Production Company.Then slink off to hide behind his Royal connections and leech of his Parents.

It's like Prince Charles on the royal barge during the flotilla. He decided to dress up as admiral of the fleet. I'm sure there were more suitable costumes at the fancy dress shop; Noddy, gorilla etc

At least Charles did command a Warship of a type and Andrew served as a Helicopter pilot in the Falklands, and William and Harry have served in the Military, admittedly not at the levels suggested by any of their Fancy Dress outfits , but the Prince of Prix has done absolutely nothing other than prove he is a failed useless individual.

He organised the royal 'It's a Knockout years back. Successfully making himself look a complete pillock.

That's why he was made Earl of Wessex....a place that doesn't even exist any more....very appropriate.

Wonder if his missus still chats to Arabs?
