The Duke of Edinburgh is retiring from royal duties this autumn, Buckingham Palace has announced.

The decision was made by Prince Philip himself and is supported by the Queen, a palace spokesman said.

Prince Philip turns 96 next month.

As you were. Charles isn't ascending just yet.


My guess she ain't leaving until Chuckles abdicates..

Phil is retiring? Just great. Now he is going to be living off the taxpayers.

Oh, @EC

It's driving me crazy. Who's the pretty steampunk gal in your avatar?

She's a gift from @Oceander ?

Love her dress, but that's a separate thread. Wonder if I would look good in that or if I'm too old. Poop.

Actually, doesn't Charles want to be George VII not Charles III?

The monarchy hasn't had good luck with kings named Charles. ESpecially Charles I

@EC
The county I grew up in was named after Charles I, and he was the monarch who gave my ancestors the Land Grant. Okay by me, at this point. If "Charles III" wants to give me land, I'd take it, too.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Or a corgi. Lol. I just. Felt sad for him. Having your head chopped off isn't pleasant. Still it's better than what they did to Edward II

Well, Edward II arguably deserved it. Edward III turned out much better.

Some of the best quotes from the Duke of Edinburgh

Some pretty good ones in there.  Interesting man.  From an entirely different time, wasn't he?
