‘Save England!’ Royal mother in law battles for Brexit vote

-

The Royal Family has so far remained above the fray of the eU referendum debate. however, the mother-in-law of the Duke of Kent’s son Lord Nicholas Windsor has broken ranks to come out as a Brexiteer.

Professor Ingrid Detter de Frankopan, Swedish-born academic and mother of Nicholas’s wife, Paola, has written a book in favour of leaving the eU called The Suicide of europe which she intended to launch last night at the Polish hearth Club in London.

Unfortunat­ely, she was banned from hosting the event as she was told the club could not hold political meetings.

The indomitabl­e professor would not be silenced and her supporters had to adjourn to the basement of a nearby pub.

‘I am furious with the chairman of the club, Nicholas Kelsey, as he said it couldn’t take place because it’s a political event,’ she tells me.

‘What nonsense! The club hosted a political debate on the referendum just a few weeks ago. I reminded him the club was founded by the Duke of Kent’s father in 1940.

‘Do you think there was no mention of politics then? What do you think they talked about? The weather?’

‘We have to save england in its present form to show future generation­s how a great country looks like,’ she says. ‘Otherwise we may have nothing to show.

‘My book shows that the eU planned and encouraged the migrant invasion from North Africa for the past 12 years. Another wave will come from Azerbaijan, according to secret eU plans.

‘We must be able to do something to alert people to the dangers of Remain. We will not have another chance to get out.’

Ingrid, a good friend of the late Pope John Paul II, says she didn’t invite members of the Royal Family to her launch as she thought they would be too exhausted after the weekend’s activities to mark the Queen’s 90th birthday. ‘My grandson Albert [Windsor] was on the Palace balcony in a white sailor suit,’ she says proudly.
