 Buckingham Palace cancels Sun subscription2 Apr 2004 by Malcolm Drury
By order of the Queen, Buckingham Palace has cancelled its long-standing subscription to the Sun following the latter's publication of photographs of Prince William, DeadBrain has learned.
The alleged newspaper, which is widely read for its incisive editorial commentary and page three girl, published the photos in breach of an agreement between the media and the Royals allowing Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry Potter, privacy in exchange for regular official photo-opportunities. The photos were taken at the exclusive ski resort of Klosters, where William is spending time with his father, *, the Royal formerly known as Prince Charles, who is once again taking a well-deserved break. They showed William with a person the Sun claimed is his girlfriend. Queen Elizabeth II is reported to be very angry at the breach, and is understood to have issued the order yesterday to cancel the Palace's subscription to the Sun immediately. However, that move apparently did not go down well with Prince Philip. According to a Palace insider who spoke to our reporter on condition of anonymity, Philip asked the Queen what the bloody hell she thought she was doing, saying he liked the Sun for its, er, crossword puzzle. It is believed that the Sun is Prince Philip's favourite newspaper, and he likes to spend a couple of hours with it each morning while having breakfast and haranguing the servants on a wide variety of topics. Dougy Ramsbottom, 12, who delivers the daily newspapers to the Palace, told our reporter that Philip is usually at the gate waiting for him each morning. "The first fing he asks for is the Sun," he said, "unless it's Beano day." Rupert Murdoch, owner of the Sun, is reported to be upset at the Queen's move, considering it to be a severe setback to his possible knighthood, saying something along the lines of "streuth, it's not as if we showed the girl's tits". Late newsThe Metropolitan Police have announced that they have released an elderly gentleman who had been caught prowling around Buckingham Palace in the early hours of this morning wearing a long trench coat and sunglasses, eating a doner kebab and carrying a copy of the Sun. A spokesman refused to identify the individual saying that the police were satisfied that he did not represent a security threat. The spokesman also refused to confirm a rumour that upon being approached the person had said "bugger off you bloody bluebottle, go and catch some real criminals".Related Articles Prince Philip in peasant-shooting row 16 Jan 2004 Prince Charles more popular than sex 5 Jan 2004 Royals to be moved outside London 11 Dec 2003 Royal Family obtains injunction against itself 24 Nov 2003 Prince Charles changes name, becomes * 13 Nov 2003
