Brief extract from the article quoted in posting number sixteen of the thread on the link in the last posting to this thread (from: "Burglars steal Prince's letters attacking EU", by Daniel Foggo, 18/05/2002):

(Quote from Sunday Telegraph) The Prince's lack of support for European legislation is clear in the letters. Prince Charles is known to hold reservations privately about Britain's involvement in Europe, and he was recently reported to have told a dinner party guest that he would not mind if Britain left the EU completely. He has also lamented that the building of the Channel Tunnel has left Britain no longer an island. In public, however, he is constrained by the convention preventing members of the Royal Family from making political statements. (End of quote from Sunday Telegraph)
