Royal wedding level of interest

[TeeferTiger]

I'm not really pro or anti Royal tbf. They serve a purpose in getting the tourists in and it's nice to have someone to go off representing the country rather than the tit of a PM we have. I don't wish the "happy couple" any harm, I just could give a flying fugg about their wedding.

[NWpostie]

I am fairly Royalist, met Prince Philip once, ok chap.

The wedding itself is privately paid for as far as I am aware, Prince Charles is picking up the tab, the rest is security cost that comes out of the public purse, inevitable considering the scale of event, I am pretty sure the Royal Couple would prefer to marry privately and with as little fuss as possible, unfortunately their profile, public and media interest in them makes this impossible. there is also the lunatic fringe that is looking to spoil their day, anti Royalist, Muslim protesters, anarchist etc, they should have some respect for their day, these self same prats wouldn't like their wedding, parties etc disturbed so do not inflict it on others.

I wish them well, Prince William might actually make a good King having the common touch.

I find the whole thing quite vulgar considering what's going on in the country at the moment!

i totally agree,, its disgusting,, we are royality and can do as we please, spend tax payers money,, on our lavish life style, no expense spared,,, spend millions on our wedding,,,,, while at the same time people are losing thier jobs, homes, families struggling to feed thier families,,,,, cannot afford to servive........... i know what will be doing friday, and thats not watching the rubbish royal wedding because the whole thing is quite vulgar.......

You are wrong about 'millions on our wedding'. The families themselves are paying for the wedding. And the cost to the taxpayer of the whole Royal Family is around 62p per year so we're hardly being robbed!! Even this paltry sum is more than compensated for by the revenue brought into the economy by tourism etc. Furthermore, many of the Royal undertake excellent charity work and Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have also served their country in the Armed Forces, when they didn't have to or need to.

If you are bitter about your life, then do something about it to improve yourself. You'll feel a whole lot better I promise!!

Yes, obviously the security bill will be footed from the public purse, but as British citizens Kate and William are just as entitled to protection as the rest of us. It's just that given their high profile they need a whole lot more security.

By the way, both the 'anarchist' and Nazi Muslim grouplets have bottled it and called off their promised 'protests'. It's clear they didn't quite fancy the level of public 'antipathy' that would have been directed towards them!!

Re my bold, given the level of resentment against the anarchist and Muslim Nazis, they will not survive 10 minutes after having seven bells knocked out of them, I would love to have a ringside seat for that one they will be slaughtered simple as.

The Army forum I'm on, are secretly hoping there will be some action by the Cavalry against the great unwashed/Terry/anyone who kicks off about the wedding http://www.arrse.co.uk/naafi-bar/161820 ... dding.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and so am I

Not bothered either way, but will tune in to see her dress. How I would love for her to turn up in white leather mini dress with white leather knee high boots just to piss off the establishment. Now that's my kinda wedding dress!

i'm not bitter about my life, i'm in a o.k position, and feel very good about life in general, i tend to think about other people before myself, and i know there is a lot of good people in britian who are in a position of dispair,, who will feel quite low on friday...... with this wedding plastered all over the media,,,

'For all men being originally equal,no one by birth should have a right to set up his own family in perpetual preference to
all others for ever,and though himself might deserve some decent degree of honors of his contemporaries,yet his descendants might be far too unworthy to inherit them .

One of the strongest natural proofs of the folly of hereditary right in kings,is that nature disaproves it,otherwise she
wouldnt so frequently turn it into ridicule by giving mankind an ass for a lion!'

THOMAS PAINE (1776)

the argument was won a long time ago,some reasons given here in support of the royal family are laughable.

PRINCE CHARLES IS PAYING FOR IT! I suppose thats out of the money he earns working double shifts at tesco is it?

THEY BRING IN TOURISM! If all the palaces,gardens and homes were open to the public and the vast royal art collections
were on display how much more tourism would that attract?On a lighter note how much would your average yank/chinese
/japenese tourist pay to have a dump on the Queens lavie! We could probably build a new hospital a year out of that alone.

America and France are the top tourist destinations in the world and they are republics.If David Cameron and the like
want to keep the royal family then why dosnt he do what hes gonna do to Royal Mail and privatise the german spongers?!

NAZI MUSLIMS! I dont recall any muslim getting pisst at a party and wearing a swastika armband like price f***ing
harry.Also if you know the history of the Windsors youll find they have rather more strong connections with Nazi Germany.

Next time some ned comes at me with a broken bottle i'll just let my bodygaurds deal with it.
