Queen Mum Was a 'Ghastly Old Bigot'

Britain's Queen Mother was a "ghastly old bigot" who once referred to some of England's closest EU allies using ethnic slurs that left a BBC newscaster appalled. "The words were delivered with the eyes on maximum tiara-strength twinkle, but I froze," said Edward Stourton, who revealed the incident in his new book, It's a PC World. "The nation's favorite grandmother was a ghastly old bigot. What she said was nasty and ugly." (More British royals stories.)
