Prince Philip taken to hospital

The Duke of Edinburgh has been taken to hospital with a bladder infection, Buckingham Palace says.

Prince Philip, who is 90, has been taken to the King Edward VII Hospital in London from Windsor Castle as a "precautionary measure".

He will miss the Diamond Jubilee concert due to be held at the palace and being attended by 12,000 people, and will remain in hospital under observation for a few days, a palace spokeswoman said.
