“I was extremely saddened to learn of the passing of the Duke of Edinburgh. A steadfast constant by the side of the Queen for over 70 years, his dedication and service to this country will never be surpassed, nor forgotten. I was fortunate to meet Prince Phillip on several occasions when I was Student Union President and he was always a warm and very funny man. I send my sincerest condolences to HM The Queen and the Royal Family.”
