Does Royal believe he is above law?

It's reported that Prince Philip has refused to give evidence in the inquest into the death of Princess Diana – which means that he believes he is above the law.

And, being a member of the monarchy, he probably is.

I have no idea whether Diana's death was the result of a tragic accident or, as Mohamed Al Fayed claims, a plot hatched by Prince Philip and the British security forces.

What I do believe is that if any evidence incriminating Philip or any member of the Royals were uncovered in this inquest it would simply be swept under the carpet and ridiculed out of court.
