Where were our PM or Royal family? -World Cup!

[Marmaladelover]

I really enjoyed watching the final this afternoon and was delighted that England won. There were a few shots of Mark Carey and his wife who made it over from Canada for the event but I was really surprised that none of our “leaders” were there. Not in the crowd , nothing.

It would have been a real boost for women’s /girls sport, I would have thought if someone could have taken Princess Charlotte along - the Princess of Wales , or failing that her Dad. Turns out that Kier Starmer was heading for his conference, I am sure he could have got a later flight.

There was no one there representing our country at such a momentous occasion. AIBU ?

Well...exactly. my friend who has had a far far worse cancer, total hair loss and more, has just done a 100 mile walk for her charity

And has been back at full time work

Surely surely Kate could've sat through a 90 minute match, she's hardly queuing at the turnstiles to get in

Poor show

They were there on some sponsorship thing I read

Ah but that's Wimbledon. Such a naice place with a naice box to sit in and be photographed. Basically no one is interested. Let the plebs amuse themselves.

She loves tennis (as do I)

Not so much women's rugby!

Kate in frail health - too sick to attend this important event? She managed to doll herself up to attend a state dinner with Trump, of all people, only last week.

seeing that she is patron of rugby league as well as union you’d think she’d make the effort!

Apparently not women's rugby. Sorry Charlotte tennis, lacrosse or netball for you at Marlborough.

The Tindalls were there on a freebie. They weren’t representing the RF.

This “slimmed down” nonsense is wearing thin, they still get a lot of funding and some of them (William and Kate) are idle.

Careful, that's moving into sedition. People will get upset. Just Kate sitting somewhere in a room in a palace brings billions of pounds of tourism to the UK apparently. She doesn't need to get out of bed.
