Charles to pick up William and Kate's lavish wedding bill....

.... But the taxpayers could still have to find £20m for the security.

As this Daily Mail artlicle points out..

Though I have a funny feeling the boost in tourism to see the wedding procession and the memerobilia will at least put that back into the economy

Note to David Cameron.. Can I please get the day off of work?:brit:

Yeah that's the big question will we get a day off, everybody got a day off for Charles and if I remember correctly I think I got a day off school when Anne got married the first time.

days off.......???

Risking the economy to grind to a halt....???

Nahhhh.....

I joked at work that we were guaranteed a holiday but most folk after they thought about it reckoned that they might not announce a holiday this time.

Well Cameron has announced a bank holiday whenever the date is :scotland:

All good to me... The economy will get a boost from this event and Cameron knows it! He would rather allow hundreds of thousands of people (and tourists) lining up around London on the big day to wish the newlyweds along. The tax revenue alone will be worth making it a bank holiday for the one off...
