Lucky thing for Prince Charles that it was almost tea time when this occurred. He was able to escape while the water was boiling.

The monarchy hasn't ruled in ages, and IMO they're more of a burden on the UK than anything else, but sheesh...what does he have to do with tuition costs? Mob mentality got the better of that crowd. Edited by Skeeve on 12/10/2010 20:35 |

Right. Like so many of the wonderful and positive changes in human society are a direct result of bunches of angry people breaking, burning and destroying things.... Quantum Junction: Use both lanes

I think it has more to do with a perception that the privileged class doesn't really care all that much about the economic impact of their policies.
