Prince Philip
In the days when the nation depended on agriculture for its wealth it made the Lord Chancellor sit on a woolsack to remind him where the wealth came from. I would like to suggest we remove that now and make him sit on a crate of machine tools.
Prince Philip
That's a nice tie... Do you have any knickers in that material?
Prince Philip
Everybody was saying we must have more leisure. Now they are complaining they are unemployed.
Prince Philip
It doesn't look like much work goes on at this university.
Prince Philip
We are suffering a national defeat comparable to any lost military campaign, and what is more, it is self- inflicted? It is about time that we pulled our fingers out? The rest of the world most certainly does not owe us a living.
Prince Philip
