Its not a state wedding and they are not knights of the garter thus they weren't invited. Big deal, even Blair has said its not a big deal.

Former Labour PMs were at Charles and Di's wedding - they weren't knights of the garter either. Anyway, it's not a big deal anyway. It seems wrong that in this time of national hardship that some people have a vast pile of cash to throw at a wedding. The media is in overdrive, the marketing folk are trying to link thief products to the thing. I was rather glad tat Charles and Camilla used a registry office. Camilla is far more likely to sit next to her husband when he becomes King. I just hope that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have a happier time of it than his parents and that they are able to make the monarchy seem less distant and more relevant. Right now, though, I'm not seeing that.

They didn't apply that rule for Di/Charles wedding, other PMs who weren't Knights of the Garter attended. I object to the Saudi Royals being there and Ambassadors of Zimbabwe and Bahrain attending. What sort of message is that? The Foreign Office fecked up big time on that score.

Prince charles and Di's wedding was a state occasion as he was the heir to the throne.

PMs weren't my main concern TBH.

'Sat behind David Beckham LOL'! Just caught live footage of the bride & groom driving out of BP in an old Aston Martin convertible with balloons & whatnot tied to it. Have to say, that did put a smile on my face. After all the rest of it - which has been a bit dry & po-faced tbh - that's a pretty cool thing.
