I did not watch it, not because i have anything against royalty but just because i have no interest in it.
What i was interested in was an interview on a British TV morning programme where an actress "famous" for being in something called brigerton or bridgetown (something else i never watch) gave her opinion that it was a terribly white balcony! needless to say she was a woman of colour.
As far as i have heard there was one well tanned person invited to the ceremony but apparently she declined the offer.
I can imagine the furore if a white person had made such a statement in reverse, such as an African royal family has a terribly black balcony.
There would probably be calls to bring back hanging and at least a couple of statues would be pulled down.
When are media in UK going to accept that every family and or social event in the UK does not have to include people of colour and or transgenders just to make it look right to them.
