Kensington Palace called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be invited to the Royal Wedding (Harry & Meghan) like last time, but I would have to agree to speeches and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!

I'm quite pleased about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's engagement. It finally means there'll be at least 24 hours of news coverage I don't have to watch or give a shit about it.

A royal wedding before Brexit is like having a living room disco before burning your house to the ground.

Just turned on twitter and it appears Kate Hoey is so stupid they've had to call a royal wedding to distract us all.

Much to my alarm, my brain cannot stop singing my own musical version of Aladdin where the lyrics to Prince Ali are replaced by “Prince Harry, fabulous he
Gonna get married…”

Royal correspondents are such a weird lot. Sitting there, their heads slightly tilted, explaining in detail what Royals are thinking. With a 'what you've got to understand' smile on their face. Thinking a Royal wedding is 'just what the nation needs'. Sycophantic cranks.

"The royal wedding is a government ploy to distract us from Brexit!"
Aye mate, I'll be too busy putting up bunting to remember how shite our country is.
