'Everyone' is talking about this? Really? The only people I've seen who were enthusiastically discussing this were on the television news, interviewing other journalists, and telling listeners that they should give the readers/viewers what 'they want' because 'everyone' is talking about this. When journalists use their position to interview each other as evidence that 'everyone' thinks the way they do; maybe it's time to question whether they are in-fact telling us what 'everyone' thinks because most people *don't* actually care about it and they are trying to convince us that we should through artificial peer pressure. Surely if 'everyone' were discussing an issue then telling the public that they were would be a pointless exercise.

He was playing strip Poker and her and her and her!

Las Vegas the home of the Mafia, and favourite holiday haunt of sad fat old men that give free beer to Skid Street criminals in Manchester, and launder their money, in reward for calling themselves Landlords, even though their laundering pubs do not earn enough nor have enough customers

....and what was he on that we cannot buy unless illegal to allow such photographs..and where were his minders at that time?

I expect Tom Groans to come out with another song.

!You can keep your Crown on".

this typical distractionist tactic is unworthy of a great nation, perhaps a "bit of fun" but in truth an irreverent irrelevance....
witnessing the pursuit of even more money by the already rich (publishers in this case for their even richer bosses - what about the bonuses?) is mere tedium, freedom is an excellent pursuit but this is slavery indeed.....

Well you got that one wrong Steven Baxter, trust the good old sleezy Sun to be the first to "break out."

Most of the people posting comments on here seem rather pathetic and needy if all they can do is attack a minor royal, I wonder how many of them woiuld have the nuts to serve in a war zone, sad sad people.

I don't normally defend the Royals, I was unfortunate to meet Princess Ann years ago and that can turn you off for life!

I'm also unfortunate enough to meet people of Harry's age on Saturday nights every other week behaving far worse than him.

You sad people should try getting out into the real world ocassionally.

Interesting idea, Stephen - maybe they are genuinely afraid of losing circulation. Or rather, losing it even faster than they have been.

@Hikaru22 - "Bugger it, why NOT Bognor", as Harry might say.

Billiards is so high-falutin!

The media frenzy is comical. I doubt there will be the same level of interest should Prince Harry return to Afgan.
Unfortunately, lazy cheque book journalism is still rife and as such the pictures have made one outfit a lot of money. That said I'm left wondering if this could also be an amazing positive!
Good old Prince Harry has put the UK on the front pages of papers around the world, I trust the English Tourist Board will write to say thanks as they have never achieved such a thing.
stevem1940 - will you be thanking Harry when he returns to Afgan?
Tinky Wink - Why should Harry F Off, if you don't like the Monarchy apply to another English speaking country to go and live there.
myouz - the benefit scroungers are those that take money from the HUGE amount of revenue the Monarchy brings into the UK and the taxes the Royals pay.

Harry, best wishes should you return to Afgan and thank you for fighting for and protecting not only the UK but the world in general from terrorists.

A poor example for our country. An embarrassment. If we had an elected head of state and he behaved like this, he would be sacked. Time to get rid of the royals and have an elected head of state.

Shame on you Harry, you are not a kid now, inexcuseable for your behavior. I have always loved you, but you havwe gone down in my book. What do you think your mom would think. You need to grow up and appreciate the heritage you have.

TMZ would like to take a moment to thank the New Statesman and other global media outlets for endlessly running and talking about these nude shots of Harry. Normally in a lousy economy, they'd have to struggle with budget cuts and more. Thanks to you though, you've given them massive free global pr that most people would kill for.

Carry on.

It seems that in general even before the Leverson Inquiry the royal familiy were always considered untouchable. WHat more proof does the public need that these over privileged wanxxxxx are taking the michael. Just look at the slovenly demeanour of Harry. Is he or that weak pathetic excuse of a brother, fit to rule over us. It seems that the royal fmailiy in general want al the privleges but none of the responsibilities. Wake up Joe Public!!!!

What a pathetic excuse for defending censorship. The writer should be thoroughly ashamed . Harry is a kept man. The public who keep him in the lap of luxury are entitled to know about his antics. He and his family are publicity seekers par excellance. The bad must go along with the good.

Harry - perlease! Just fuck off!

I love the way that posh boys always get it slightly wrong.

"Strip billiards", indeed!
