    Although apparently, being an increasingly frail 91 year-old woman isn't a good enough excuse for this rampant prick.

    Now I am no current affairs nor political newshound but even I can tell this is not a journalistic position of much gravitas.

    I think his newspaper is big on the whole Remembrance thing, the poppy etc.

    Perhaps so, but it's also very pro-Her Maj. Either way, his tweet went down like a cup of cold sick and he deleted it amidst everyone telling him what a cùnt he is.

    Actually no - just thought the tweet was reprehensible (and I am no royalist)

    The thing that was particularly reprehensible (and funny) was that he was trying to be holier-than-thou about it to The Queen, a woman who served in the war whose record of public service (whatever you may think of the monarchy) is pretty much irreproachable.

    Cünt.

    I've hated all tabloid journalists since that episode of Morse where that **** was nasty to Morse.

    I must say, Chief Superintendent Strange wasn't as supportive as he might have been.

    Apart from being vicious, nasty and spectacularly ill-judged, the whole "I'm a loyal subject" thing he starts with is the kind of pomposity that turns some of us off about royalism in the first place. And he's clearly not that much of a loyal subject given what he goes on to say about a frail old lady, he's an unpleasant, self-important little cùnt.

    Au contraire - his predecessor (minus one, I think) Trevor Kavanagh was a highly respected and influential journalist - arguably more so than his broadsheet contemporaries. Have to admit I haven't heard of this **** but was quite glad to find when googling him that his middle name is Zoltan.
