Prince Harry sent on equality training by Army after 'Paki' slur By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 10:01 AM on 12th February 2009 Comments (60) Add to My Stories Prince Harry has been ordered to attend an equality and diversity course by Army chiefs after being formally disciplined for his 'Paki' remark. It is the second time the prince will have had to undertake the racial awareness training, which is mandatory for recruits. The course aims to educate soldiers on what type of behaviour and language is unacceptable in today's multicultural Army. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1141545/Prince-Harry-sent-equality-training-Army-Paki-slur.html

"The prince was heard calling fellow cadet Ahmed Raza Khan as "our little Paki friend" in the video, which he filmed as they waited to board a flight to Cyprus.
He was also caught saying: "F*** me, you look like a raghead," about someone else.
Earlier this week, black stand-up comedian Stephen K Amos told a television audience Harry had said to him: "You don't sound like a black chap."
He claimed the prince made the comment at the Prince of Wales's 60th birthday celebration last year.
"I wanted to say (in a West Indian accent) 'How am I supposed to sound?', the comic added.
Last night Clarence House said the matter over the video footage was now closed.
"Prince Harry has said sorry for his remarks and has been subjected to normal Army disciplinary procedures," a spokesperson said. "

Wouldn't be so bad if they were actually British but they're mainly all Krauts anyway ain't they? Diana was the only dilution

All these revelations recently have really come as a shock, I have to admit.
The British Royal family, a bunch of ignorant racists. Who'dve thought it?

Seeing as we're vaguely onto the Scouse race, does anyone else find it snigger-worthy that the ads for University of Liverpool I'm seeing on the index page include the words "It's not where you are, it's where you want to be"?

How are we onto the scouse race? What's funny about that line?
You are odd.

Sweet Soul appears to think Scouse is a race.
I find that mildly amusing. "Come to Liverpool - we know it's a shithole but think of all the better places you'll be able to escape to when you've got your degree."

Its not really a punishment, is it? Its just an exercise designed to shut up those who are offended. Nothing changes.
