Only because of safety issues. The met will be stretched to the limit that day as it is, so something like this which will need a police presence isn't viable.

Already the islamists are trying to organise some sort of demonstration, in order to cause hatred and division.

Their right to protest isn't being taken away, I'm sure when things have quietened down they will be able to have their demo.

Yeah but you see, no one will notice it then or care, or be in a position to get offended or even hear about it. These people need the attention. Attention seekers.

Is it not on BBC for everyone to watch anyway or did the royal family sell the rights to Sky or what?

The amount of crap from RTE that is spilled over the airwaves day in and day out it staggering for a national broadcaster.

So much anti english from a country that heavily replies on the UK in a great number of ways is so so sad.

I'll agree with you that people can just not watch it, but i do think it's possible for people to question why it's on without being "anti english".

The amount of people who refuse to move and accept that it's now the 21st Century and Britain is no longer the enemy is staggering.

The irony of somebody lauding a relic of the middle ages (which has a good dollop of 17th-century anti-Catholicism thrown in for good measure) saying this has clearly eluded you.

Britain is of course the enemy.

Those little knackers in Harry Brown. The scumbags in Green Street. The little ****heads in Football Factory. They're all english. And the killing of Cillian Murphy in The Wind That Shakes the Barley

PS: It's always a "number of people", never an "amount of people". So much for your defence of royalism when you can't speak the Queen's English properly.

Clearly it has.

Would you, with your superior knowledge and understanding, care to enlighten me as to where the irony is in looking forward to watching a happy event at a time when there is so much unhappiness in the news?

Including Crossmaglen? Oops! How the unionists quickly forget parts of their "union" when it doesn't suit their royalist myths.

The Premiership isn't an English league. It's a league comprising the best footballers from Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales.

And their Police kicked the crap out of Daniel Day Lewis and stitched him up for a crime he didn't commit.

If this is what you describe as a "happy event" then you're clearly ignoring reality, such as if the woman in question were Catholic, this marriage would not be taking place because the monarchy which you're attempting to promote as modern here remains, in fact, a deeply sectarian and specifically anti-Catholic one. This is a fact which you're not-so-adroitly avoiding.

Moreover, how much will this "happy event" cost? And why pay so much for this "happy event" over the innumerable other happy events in the world? The truth, as well you know, is that you are not obsessed about it because it's a "happy event" but rather because of the politics and culture of the event in question. So please try and desist from being disingenuous about the real reasons you, and people who think like you, are getting on your high horses and condemning the native Irish for not accepting this upstart display from the latest illegitimate House to occupy the throne of England.

Isn't it great, though. There you are condemning all who don't subscribe to the inherent peasantry - oops pageantry - that is British royalism as being "anti-British" and "living in the past" when you don't have as good a grasp of the Queen's English as the very people you condemn as being anti-British simply because they don't share your adulation for the British monarchy. By your own definition you must be "hypocritical". :rolleyes:

Er, the English Premiership is, well, English. Stop trying to rob the English of what is their own. What next? The Spanish soccer league is not Spanish but one comprising the best soccer players from Ireland, Germany, Britain, France....?

First you do realise I am native Irish too don't you? Or do you think that the only true Irish people are those who would despise everything remotely British

Two you have no idea why I am enjoying the build up to the Wedding and will be happy to sit down and watch so don't even think about making assumptions.

I am certainly not obsessed. I simply enjoy the pomp and ceremony surrounding Royal weddings and am happy that to see a news story that is happy and uplifting when there is so much doom and gloom going on nationally and internationally.

The politics are of no interest to me though they certainly seem to be for you.

You do realise that you are just as stuck up and full of it as you insist the Royals are.

Honestly you need to pull your head out of your rear and come back to reality.

You're clearly intent upon discrediting yourself by these cretinous and utterly fúcking retarded equations of "if you don't support the British monarchy like I do, you're anti-British". Goodbye.
