On the subject of Harry's paternity... surely it's not just the fact that he looks a bit like James Hewitt that fuels that rumour, let's not forget that the captain was strongly rumoured to have been pumping the prince's mother around the time of his conception.
Anyway who cares. Here's the best article published about this absolutely meaningless event:

Honestly didn't know this 'event' was this weekend until a few days ago, I doubt if any friends of mine give a f*** about this, but any who do are welcome to f*** off, better off without you.
I had a passenger the other night who had come from a meeting of the royal overseas league. I had seen the building up town plenty of times, but I’d no idea what it was. I asked him about it and he proceeded to tell me. Every time he mentioned the queen he referred to her as her majesty the queen, he was unbelievable. I asked him about the royal wedding and he said he was heading through to uddingston to watch it in some club. It’s strange to think that these people exist, but they do and there is probably plenty more like him.Quote:

Would be good if the royal reporters reported in the same manner political reporters reported politicians. It's like North Korea when it comes to the royal family absolute embarrassment.

Pretty decent take on the whole thing by the Guardian.
That article hits the nail on the head for me. I don’t really agree with having a monarchy, in fact I would like the “UK” (it couldn’t be called that, I guess) to be a federal republic. However, I realise most of the country probably doesn’t agree and I’m in no rush to see them lined up and taken out Romanov style.Quote:

Just heard Harry being described as an ' ordinary bloke' lol
The Royals are gonna get Litt UpQuote:

He arguably has been seen more as 'fair game' for the gutter press and his actions, good and bad, have been scrutinised. Many of the headlines are for things that are 'ordinary'.Quote:

At least today will generate plenty of crackers like these...

He's been titled the earl of Dumbarton 😂
I always have a good laugh at this, pretty much sums the BBC reporting up.Quote:

It's quite interesting to note that despite the 'marketing' of this as the modern, multicultural British wedding the crowd is very, very white.
Watching this live in Germany - Britain is simply outstanding at such occasions, really impressive - Thought the young cello player Sheku Kanneh_Mason was astonishingly good and Bishop Michael Curry's address was really refreshing and quite "edgy" -
I'm a republican myself, but what have "we" got to offer to the crowds lapping this up to make them change their minds?
Prince rocks.Quote:

Missed it as I was out with my Dad, just back in watching the after coverage and clips of the highlights.
Looked and sounded fantastic according to the feedback. It has brought joy to millions of people so pretty hard to snipe about it.
Was flicking through the channels around half 8 this morning and on 2 different broadcasts they mentioned the "diversity" of the crowds????Quote:

Nae poor oot!
Tight b’stard!!
Definitely.Quote:

Aye, but you think the lads in the tui advert is "smoking hot" so who are you to judge! ;-)Quote:
