What a disgraceful waste of time. So to become King or Queen you have to be born into it. You can be a complete twat and still be head of the state because your parents got it on.

Yet if I employ on looks, gender, race, sex I can be fined for discimination. Good to see we have the priorities right. May I ask what to do the royal pompus turds do for society? Ban free speech because a small production team in Australia wants to have a laugh at the whole ceremony that at best would be seen by maybe a few hundred thousand people in Australia.

Nothing against Will or Kate but a big waste of tax dollars in a country that is struggling financially. Our company office in UK had to let go of over 35% of staff due to the slow down in construction, I wonder if they will be waving the flag.

I'll start by saying I don't really give a shitif there is or isn't a royal family, it doesn't affect me directly (even when I lived there).

BUT, for the last 15 years or so, the Royal household has been run as a taxable business. They account for their expenditure, and due to generations of wealth, they can afford to be opulant.

As far as this bash goes;
cost of church - zero (Queen is head of the church of England)
cost of cars - minimal as they already own a fleet of cerimonial cars
Cost of Engagement ring - zero, used an old family one
Cost of Tiara - Zero, used an old family one

Earings for the British Ecomomy
Billions though BBC TV Coverage rights (BBC is state owned)
Billions in increased tourism

If the top knobs did their job right, England just made a whopping profit

EDIT; being head of state is ceremonial, The Crown has had no power for around 400 years
