Sorry, Dave. The peasants aren't buying it, even if you and your Lovely Lady Wife are travelling all the way up to the Boondocks to join us in wishing Baldy Jr. and Ms Sloane every happiness.

1. Well I'm not going to begrudge people a street party if they want it.
I'm fairly sure you won't see any where I live, but that's partly because it's very hilly where I am and it's not easy to hold a street party on a 1 in 3 hill.

As to the Cameron's holding one in Downing Street, well if they want to that's fine by me, although again Downing Street would not be the ideal location for a street party for a whole number of reasons, even if it is a nice photo op for a politician.

2. Nor do I...
but I think that if this is Cameron's big issue at the moment, either he's got a very strange set of priorities, or he's trying to distract people from the mess his government is making. Probably both.
