Poor guy, he was born right at the peak of the British Empire and he's spent his whole life watching it decay and crumble until there's only a few crappy little islands left.

What a racist, intolerant, rich asshole. I'm glad he'll be dead soon. Why the fuck you Brits didn't just kill off your royal family decades ago, I'll never understand.

They're not really gaffes. "Gaffes" implies that they were said by mistake and that he didn't really mean them. He's just a bigot.
