Royal wedding: disappointed at all the nasty MN threads

[TwitterQueen1]

I saw two 'positive' threads - one on Camilla, one on Charles. All the others (that I saw) were pretty spiteful and unpleasant, alleging or implying:

• Kate tried to upstage Meghan by wearing cream (which was actually lemon)
• Several royals were 'unable' to look at the happy couple whilst they were saying their vows
• Kate really wanted to marry Harry herself
• Elton looked very rough and his wig was awful
• Victoria B is miserable and po-faced
• David B - 'nuff said
• Harry's outfit looked like PJs and he should have shaved
• Meghan was afraid of being upstaged by adult bridesmaids to chose to have only flower girls
• Meghan's dress didn't fit well
• Meghan is going to get restless in a few years and flit
• apparently there's a lot of 'hate' for Meghan
• all the guests, including Harry, would be guilty of drink driving after the reception

At the risk of sounding like Pollyanna, and regardless of whether you're a royalist, republican, communist, whatever, I think it's a shame that people looked for the negative and nasty on a day of celebration.

Can we have some positives? Here's mine: William looked relaxed and confident and was obviously a huge support to a very nervous Harry.

Personally I don't have a problem in the royals feeding back money into the British economy and supporting companies such as this. That ~90k has probably paid for a few salaries... Exactly. If you spend money then it goes into other people's pockets.

We'll never agree on how much they bring in versus how much is spent on them. Never. You can find whatever alternative facts you want depending on which side of the fence you sit.

It's strange to expect to agree in facts. Why not dig into where they think that 1.8 billion comes from?

I don't understand your point marchin but I'm merely one of the fawning masses

that came out garbled.

We can't agree because we are all just throwing out our favourite number at each other. But some numbers are worse than others. For example, the 1.8 billion, we can look into what that comes from. Who made that estimate? What's it based on? We can look into and see if it is BS or something worth thinking. My guess is the former, because I can't see how you would determine if people came here to see the RF, because there is no way to measure that (i.e. we don't actually sell tickets to see them).

Also pretty disappointed in mn
