Does anybody care

Does anybody out there really care that Prince William and Kate Middleton have split up. It seems to me that the news stations are scraping the bottom of the barrel for a news story. It really really annoys me that there is all this hype over a twenty year old kid that has split from his girlfriend.

WHO GIVES A CRAP.

I am going to have to lie down now before my head explodes.

i completley agree. Get them out thats what i say. There are people in this country living in poverty. That shouldn't be happening in Britain these days. They should share their money a bit and give the people they pretend to care about a bit more of a fighting chance.

I am republican and I care. I would have liked to see the next king marry a middle class commoner -it might bring an end to the monarchy - suppose that's why 'granny' intervened.

Well it worked for Cinderella & prince Charming MargaretR

Nowt wrong with commoners we're better just poorer LOL!!!!

The point i was originally trying to make was that the news was completley dominated by this story. Was it really that news worthy considering all the other stuff that is going on in the world,i think not. Just interested in what everyone else thought.

I don't care one way or the other. However, what does sadden and anger me is the reported snobbery of the friends of Prince William's friends, regarding Kate Middleton being seen as from a lower class.

Apparently saying 'doors to manual' every time they saw Kate, referring to her mother's job as an air hostess, is pathetic. She has parents who actually work for a bloody living, whoopie do. Most of the chinless wonders William hangs out with, such as Guy Pelling, couldn't work out if they were constipated, never mind actually work for a living.

Sadly William seems to have more of his father in him than his late mother.

good point Garinda, if you ask me she is well out of it. She would probably go down the same slippery slope Princess Diana did.

This may be considered off topic but whilst we are on the monarchy topic -
I think it is bit ominous that Harry is going to Iraq.
We will have to wait and see.
I suppose it will be easier for MI5.(in keeping the 'bloodline' pure)

Interesting point because the news often winds me up with it's attention to whats going in the rest of the world while our domestic stories get relegated to the 'and finally' spot. On the rare occasion our domestic news is headline stuff it usually involves the fact a member of the royal family or politician is/is not having it off with somebody.

Mind you I suppose we get variation unlike the States where the news programmes don't even know the rest of the world exists.

I think you might be getting an organised visit to the Tower for that

As for royal blood being pure, it's probably more mongrel than a lot of us

Can't complain, money for the country.
