Re: A Nation Mourns
The Buckingham Palace website has an on-line Book of Condolence. https://www.royal.uk/condolence
"A selection of messages will be passed on to members of the Royal Family and may be held in the Royal Archives for posterity. "
In my message, i said that for those of us who are not into political correctness we have lost a mentor in the upper echelons of British society who will be sorely missed.

I think we've made too much fuss over his death. But then I'm not politically correct either.

Made? I think we've barely started.

Sounds as if, to save the blushes of Harry and Andrew, the fancy outfits have been banned for everyone

BBC receives 109,741 complaints over Prince Philip coverage
BBC News
The BBC has confirmed it received 109,741 complaints from the public over its coverage of the Duke of Edinburgh's death.
I wonder what he would have made of it?

Complained too, probably. Maybe not using the online form, though.
EDIT: 116 people complained that the online form made it too easy to complain! https://www.theguardian.com/media/2021/ ... nts-record

Which begs the question of what counts as a complaint.
That may indeed have been the point made by some of those 116.
