Prince Harry's racist remark about a Pakistani member of his army platoon has prompted widespread criticism. The prince issued an apology after the News of the World published a video diary in which he calls one of his then Sandhurst colleagues a "Paki". An Army spokesperson said it took the allegations "very seriously" and were investigating. Cabinet minister John Denham said it was "offensive" and the Ramadhan Foundation called the prince a "thug". St James's Palace said he had used the term about a friend and without malice. In a statement the Army said: "The Army does not tolerate inappropriate behaviour in any shape or form," a spokesperson for the force added. "All substantive allegations are investigated. This specific case will be dealt with in line with normal Army procedures."

Not to mention homophobic comments etc etc Ad astra per aspera
St James's Palace said he had used the term about a friend and without malice
So it's OK if the friend calls Harry an ignorant, overbred, pale-faced wanker?
(Vive la République!)
But then again, Harry is the son of a man notoriously thick and a mother who was stupid beyond belief, so it's not surprise that, despite all the advantages on earth, he turns out to be a stupid and smug liitle git. The English upper classes are warnings about the dangers of in-breeding, don't marry your cousins kids !! keep to the Fen Causeway
