The Queen has worked hard at keeping the idea of the Commonwealth alive but apparently the Cambridges are not being universally welcomed in some places. I think it’s time for the next monarch to be content with being King of the UK and let the other Commonwealth realms chose for themselves.

I will never get out of my mind the image of those two scuba diving in Belize while the people of Jamaica were standing there on a rough bit of ground protesting their arrival.

Tone deaf or what?

It's the cost that bothers me. I would love one of those couches
that they find all this money down the back of and a cutting from the money tree please.

TBH, I'm sick of seeing them in the news everyday. I don't mind where they are or what they're doing, but I don't need a blow by blow account. Although, they have at least knocked Liz Hurley off my news feed, so that's one thing to be grateful for.

They appear to be having a great time, far the troubles the rest of us are coping with. I am wondering what GB gets out of it apart from prior warning that once the Queen goes many of these islands will want to choose there own head of state. Sorry Will, I don't think it is going to be you.
