Bad news for republicans

Much eulogising today over the news that two unattractive people in their late fifties have decided to get hitched. Doesn't it just tug your heart strings? Our beloved Prince Charlie and his Rod Hull lookalike Camilla Parker Pens, or whatever her name is, are finally getting married.

The was the news story of the day, week and, I fear, the year. Just look at this. And this. And this. And this. And this. And this. All around the world.

So embarrassing that these people continue to represent our country internationally. So irritating that this is even national news, let alone global. World, for what it's worth, there are millions of people in this country who could not give a flying shite about Charles, Camilla, the ethics of their relationship or what this means for the Church of England. Really. I could not care less if someone held a gun to my head and said "care less about this subject". But we're going to have months of this now, culminating in the wedding itself. One giant yawn for me and all who think like me. On the bright side, at least they are too old to have kids. Just imagine: her face and his ears. It's a scary thought.
