The once highly respected if not feared Germaine has in the words of the other great feminist (Brittney Spears) Oops! I Did It Again. This woman only comes out from under her rock when she has something to sell. Her last bit of venom was directed at Steve Irwin(croc hunter)only days after his death.Now its Princess Diana's turn.
Some of the most startling one-liners I’ve heard all festival have issued not from the lips of male comics, who resort all too often to tiresomely predictable 'knob-gags', but from the erudite participants at the Book Festival - and most especially, from the motor-mouth of feminism’s still-reigning queen, Germaine Greer.

Germaine Greer lobbed a hand-grenade of a remark
At the end of a meet the author session at the Edinburgh Books Festival this weekend, she lobbed a hand-grenade of a remark her audience's way: she'd been thinking about Princess Diana, she revealed - and 'I’ve come to the conclusion that she was a devious moron.'
Making a mess of being Princess of Wales was no big deal, she reasoned ('All but one of the Princesses of Wales have come to a sticky end') but to botch up her life afterwards took some doing.
As always Greer, who’s been preparing a newspaper article on Diana, knows the kind of furore she’s bound to be stirring with this kind of talk - 'I’m going to have to invest in a bullet-proof vest,' she joked.

She is a complete loon. Menopause came and whacked her about too much I think. Nasty old bitch.
Even if she is right about Diana, so what? Diana is dead, and who cares what Germaine thinks. I certainly don't.
