Me? I feel sorry for her.

If my Grandson was getting married, I would like to think the guest list was drawn up by the families, rather than a committee of politicians and civil servants.

You see, neither she nor any other member of either family has any say in it. Bahrain is seen as an ally, even though, shock horror, we only just found out yesterday he is a despot? Well I never....

We retained a constitutional monarch to help oil the machinery of trade, hence the restoration with Charles II. the principle still stands. The Royal Family, love em or loathe them, are an unwitting tool of the government's contribution to UK trade.

I am no Royalist, not by a long chalk, but neither can I blame the Queen for the guest list, and to rebel against it isn't what they do. Prince Andrew is asked to help exports, Prince William is asked to help sports bids. All an arm of the government.

Now... ask Cameron why dictators are preferable to theocracies and you may get a bit further into answering what Leveller quite rightly is questioning...
