Stop already

I don’t know what it is like where you are, but here they are STILL banging on about the Royal Wedding like it actually matters.

When I was younger I was enthusiastic about ridding ourselves of the anachronism of a hereditary head of state. I’ve long since mellowed on this - partly because my long experience of the British decision making process causes me to fear that we would vote for the most recent joke contestant on X factor for president, or an I’ll considered joke of nominating ‘Boaty Mc Boatface’ would end with a small tugboat being winched into parliament to preside over the state opening.

Actually, that would be funny. I’m converted. Down with the monarchy.
