Early life[]

The big yellow chicken, a Bradly-Lashawn family symbol
Philip's mother was Veronica Bradly-Lashawn, his father's mistress for most of her life. Because of the class difference between the two lovers (Veronica was of low birth) they never married; Arthur's family did not approve of a marriage. Queen Lucy I of Lovia, especially. She forbade her son to marry the "lowly pauper girl", as she described Veronica, and the marriage plans where called off. Despite this, Arthur refused to leave his beloved girlfriend and the two of them stayed together untill her death.
Philip and his twin brother George were deeply loved by their father the king. They are considered to be members of the royal family, and are officially on good terms with the rest of the family, though it's not certain that this is truly the case after Philip described his cousins as 'capitalist pigs' in an letter to the Supreme Court Judges.
Bradly-Lashawn has never received the title of prince and is referred to as "The Hon. Philip Bradly-Lashawn". Until 2013, it was assumed he had no ambition to take over the throne. He has never been included in the Line of Succession. In 2010, Philip stated that the throne is 'in good hands with my nephew [sic] Dimitri.' In May 2011, however, he announced that although he had no ambition to take over the throne, he would be happy to do so if called upon by a congressional majority. In 2013, Philip reversed his position on the monarchy entirely, and began legal action in an attempt to claim the throne.

Activism[]

He is an activist for the freedom of Tibet and for the right to return for Palestinian refugees driven away from their ancestral grounds by force. He is highly critical of the state of Israel and its inhumane system of apartheid towards the Palestinian people. Bradly-Lashawn plans on writing a book about this. Bradly-Lashawn is also a pro-life activist and he is anti-abortion in all cases. He is an advocate for larger families in Lovia. .Bradly-Lashawn opposes the AFL because he believes "banning political parties entirely is unlawful and can be seen as a death blow to democracy in Lovia". He is against the decision of the supreme court to close down the controversial Iron Guard Party, while he has made it very clear he does not support the party.
"Crush the Capitalist Beast"[]
In 2010, Lashawn wrote the anti-establisment dance song "Crush the Capitalist Beast":
- We will break the enemy
- the enemy is the capitalist beast
- we will break him and crush him
- and make the world red
- suck on that, capitalists!
