seeing as I have started...

I watch the news on one channel..
I'm told we have no money, everything is being cut, rising fuel costs impact every aspect, austerity measures, cuts, reductions, savings, losses...
But then I turn over, and find huge building and expenditure so some people can run around a bit, the largest shopping mall in europe (apparently) being built in stratford, and huge house full of bastards (in both senses) are having a party which we paid for but aren't invited to..
and I hate the patriotic bull that the "whole country is watching"... Iwould like to assert my democratic right to not give a crap about some wealthy people having a lovely time while I try to afford food.
Maybe some psychotic lunatics will doff their caps to disgustingly rich and pointless people, and the news channels cover every minute dreary detail, but I will do the same as for Diana's funeral, sleep through it.
I hope a corgi shits in the honeymoon bed.

"we are all in this together"... well except the massively wealthy

I'm getting fed up with other people enjoying themselves at our expense...
The Olympics and wedding are costing massive amounts during time of cutbacks for us normal folk, they get to play games and have medals, or have a lovely day out... Surely the royals could have had a whip round between them and covered the cost..
Plenty of room at the palace for a bit of a do,
the queen could have made sarnies, Phil could have shot a few game birds, Charles would cover the fruit + veg (Part catering, part guest list) and Andrew could find someone to help entertain the kids.
