I?m English and frankly I think the wedding is just been hyped to improve their image.
Yes Wills and Kate probably do want to marry for love etc but the Media are using it to sell papers, the Royals are using it to improve their image, companies are using it to sell themed crap and the government are using it to hide bad news.
?In the years to come Britain will see massive cuts and job losses unheard of in generations but look two barely important people with no political power or proper significance other than being relatives to the outdated monarch are getting married yay!?
Personally I think the Royals do assist Britain in improving our image and creating personal ties with other world leader that the Prime Minister is too busy to do but all that is off-set by the casual racism, the drug scandals and the absolute waste of public money. Personally I won?t be watching the wedding live I will instead be using my day off to do something productive all the while praying that something interesting will happen- a streakier runs past the Cathedral, a mop of protestors, even just someone making a massively public gaff right in the middle of it all. That's what I?m waiting for.
