Nigel Farage has called for Prince Harry to be “sacked” from the Royal Family and his dukedom stripped for comments made in his upcoming book Spare and remarks he made during promotional interviews in the past few days. The former Brexit Party leader accused the estranged royal of “advertising the benefits of using psychedelic drugs”, making “the Queen’s life in her last few years far more difficult than it needed to be” and “trashing not just his brother but his father” too.
The GB News host said the estranged royal had “proven there is no private conversation, even at his grandfather’s funeral, that he won’t try to profit on”.
He said: “Who is to say, if he was to come to the Coronation, he would not try to sell stories about that and make money out of it.
“He’s admitted drug use. He has virtually advertised to the younger population the benefits of using psychedelic drugs.
“He has proved that he is dim, he has proved that he is stupid, he’s boasted about the numbers of Taliban [fighters] he has killed.”
He added: “All in all, I think this is a complete catastrophe. I think he should be sacked from his position [as Duke of Sussex]. At least one good thing was that he said the Royal Family are not racist.”
Mr Farage’s comments followed an assortment of interviews by Prince Harry in which he accused members of the royal family of getting “into bed with the devil” to gain favourable tabloid coverage.
Harry spoke to Britain’s ITV, CBS’s 60 Minutes and Good Morning America to promote his book Spare, which is to be widely released Tuesday.
During those interviews, he accused his stepmother, Camilla, the Queen Consort, of leaking private conversations to the media to improve her own reputation.

“There was open willingness on both sides to trade information. And with a family built on hierarchy, and with her on the way to being queen consort, there was going to be people or bodies left in the street.”
In a later conversation with Mr Farage, historian David Starkey accused Prince Harry of being a “traitor to his family”.
Mr Starkey said: “This man is a traitor to everything that he has believed in, to his family, to the monarchy, to the country, to his grandmother, to his father.
“We see what the problem is with the new gospel, the new heresy, of woke and of mental wellbeing. It is a gospel that is purely of the self.

But asked if Prince Harry should be sacked as Duke, Mr Starkey answered negatively.
He said: “No, because it would give him more attention than he deserves. He will naturally just fade away.
“Harry is perpetually declining in the order of succession. Why give them the satisfaction of the attention?
“The only way you can remove a dukedom title is through an Act of Parliament. Do we really want to go through that?”
The Royal Family has not commented on any of the claims made by Prince Harry.
