Isn't it wonderful, the lovely British spirit towards the royal wedding.
Well, is it? Now, I'm not one of those people who bashes the monarchy, and of course I wish them all the luck in the world, but I can't help but be disheartened when I see things like this...
This is the sidebar display on the BBC news page online for the now confirmed criminal attack on a café in Marrakesh, which is a popular tourist destination here in Morocco.
The wedding is a wonderful thing, and it is lovely to see a nation and even the whole world rejoicing in it, but at the same time, it's sad that a well-known and well-respected news agency such as the BBC has articles such as 'What are the saying about the dress?' which are being read more than serious world news. I don't mean to be a downer in any way, but I think that the general public lack of interest in "real" issues is a really sad commentary on the world we live in today.
Once again, I am so glad that the wedding has gone well, and that the country is so happy, and enjoying themselves so much, and I wish the newly weds a happy life together.
But please, don't forget that yesterday 15 people lost their lives. Take an interest.
