Won't be watching but best of luck to them. They seem to devote a lot of time to their charitable causes and raise awareness of those issues which i see as a good thing. Plus the royal family is a big part of the image the UK has abroad, which drives a lot of tourism, which helps to props up our economy.

Tourism has only a short future... Now the treehuggers have decided it's bad for our planet ;):(...
 
Good Luck Harry and Meghan

He Volunteered for 2 tours of Afghanistan.
•Set up Invictus games helping wounded service personal.
° Numerous unpaid charity volunteer appointments all over the world.
•Family brings in 400 million a year in private revenue that under the “ sovereign act 2011” the government keeps £360 million of.
•Family brings in £1.8 billion per year in tourism.
•Country better off by £2.1 billion a year.
Remind me how the wedding is waste of tax payers money ?
° The wedding is paid for by the Royal heritage and private funding not the tax payer and that includes her dress!
° The tax payer will pay for the public security not private security. The same way the tax payer pays for public security at football matches etc.

Like it or not, the Royal family is a British tradition and icon.

Fair enough. Least we will get a good trade deal with the USA after Brexit now we smoothed over the relations with a wedding
 
I just don't get the hysteria, two folk meet, get married, but that's not good enough, it has to be headline news for days on end.
