The Duke of Cambridge today claimed today's mental health epidemic directly stems from his grandmother's generation and the stiff upper lip mentality maintained during World War II.
Prince William made the comments as he joined New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern at the Mental Health Matters meeting at the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier today.
William, 37, said that people learned to bottle up problems from parents and grandparents who lived through World War II, such as the Queen who was a driver and mechanic with the Women's Auxiliary Territorial Service and Prince Philip, a first lieutenant in the Royal Navy.
King George VI and the Queen Mother famously posed for photographs in the rubble of Buckingham Palace following a Luftwaffe attack on the royal family in September 1940, encapsulating the Blitz spirit.

inbred.....
It wasn’t the lip that was stiff that caused the problems in the Royals...........
So, you would have preferred that her generation fall to their knees in the face of the Nazi war machine and surrender? Just so as to not to have to maintain a stiff upper lip?
Britain will not survive this brood of simpletons.
He must not be very smart.
my first thought as well.... but then with the push against Brexit by many in the ruling class in GB .... maybe that is indeed what he meant...
Having just watched “They Shall Not Grow Old”, and listening to the testimonies of the men who fought WWI, what struck me was how nonchalant they were about the whole thing, it was basically just a job to do.

That’s for sure.
In 10-15 years what’s left of the Royals will be living in Canada or some other Commonwealth nation and the Muzzies will be breeding in Buckingham Palace.
Great. So William is now giving the same type of boring, out of touch, PC-scold, New Age touchy-feely speeches as his father.
Perhaps he would have preferred the Nazi Symp Eddie the Eighth to have stayed King.
I’m much more concerned about the newest generation of pansies and snowflakes who can’t handle life myself. Bad things happen. That which does not kill you makes you stronger.
The mental health epidemic in Great Britain is called liberalism, and the mangy, whacko Muslims they’ve let override their culture, and traditions.
Yeah, that would have been stellar. The Royal Family still maintained contact with him after his abdication.
Great, now we have snowflakes for Royals
Can he really be this bloody stupid?
The “stiff upper lip” thing in the UK goes back centuries and so does “mental health” problems! Looks like his moronic s-i-l had struck again with her lunatic California/Hollyweird crap!
The Windsors have never bred them for brains.
well, they did let their country get taken over without so much as a whisper of protest. When Mohammed became the #1 boys name, you know GB had taken a turn.
too much inbreeding in the British royal family (and many royal families, going back thousands of years)
Great, now we have snowflakes for Royals
><
And the Muzzies love it. The Muzzies will be living and breeding in Buckingham Palace within 15 years. The Royals will be living elsewhere.
Mental health is a quandry because inmates have run the asylum for over 50 years. Certifiably crazy people wrote political science screeds that are still taught today. Homosexuality was ‘normalized’ then even celebrated as a higher virtue.
