I don't give a toss how many are for it or how many are against. I don't care how many silly tourists come into specifically to wave cheap plastic flags outside an empty palace. I care somewhat more about what's right and wrong. Here we have an extended family, full of especially useless hangers-on, who receive massive stipends from the state for doing nothing of use to man nor beast and who represent the pinnacle of the pyramid of undeserved privilege. Their wealth and status was obtained by their ancestors fleecing ordinary people. If they are popular, it's largely because they can afford the finest spin doctors and have the mass media in their pockets. It seems that every paper and every TV channel has its "royal correspondent". It's not a question of letting the people have what they want. It's a question of letting the people have what they've been persuaded they want. They exploit the media to promote their lifestyles to the ends of the earth. But just see what happens when someone gets a blurry snapshot of lazy-bugger Kate Middleton's tits. Talk about shit hitting fans. Speaks volumes, it does.
