Prince Philip Strikes Again!
Today at a UK hospital came out with one of his usual classics to a Filipino nurse:
“The Philippines must be half empty – you’re all here running the NHS.”

I think he's past caring about putting his foot in it.

Good lad...keep em coming.
For a Greek, he's more British than a lot of Brits.

I hope he realises how caring and necessary they are too.
The first Filipina's I met were when I was in hospital.

Can't really see how anyone could get upset about THIS remark though - it's not an attack or anything, and if anything it's almost complementary.
Some of the things he's said in the past have been a bit off the wall, but a certain documentary about him a year ago, he's not the duffer some people paint him as - he's likeable, and it's a shame he had to cut short his military career which he loved, due to circumstances.
He really doesn't get the recognition he deserves

He was simply engaging in a bit of 'traditional' harmless British banter...something the pain in the backside politically-correct whiners have no concept of.
I also watched that documentary about Prince Phillip's life story, and at the end of it I too had really warmed to the guy and was left being thankful that the Queen was fortunate enough to have married such a decent and admirable man.

I wonder what the press would have said if Philip had said the same thing to a bunch of Pakistani taxi drivers? (thinking of a stereotypical job they do).

As far as I'm concerned the press are the biggest enemy of this country.

Phil the Greek's observation is correct but its a pity Theresa Mays immigration policy does nothing to encourage Nurses to come here from the Philippines. Why come here to work if they cannnot build a future here.
