    Why
    Why is it so important that there can be only 1 royal story a day or that one story overshadows the others? Who cares? News, public stories, royal stories happen everyday. Get over it. Why does the queen have the only news on her day of a story? What if a tragedy strikes somewhere? We should put that aside so only the queen is news? Ridiculous. Why does the clock strike only for the upper tier of the queens family? Seriously. This is just trouble stirring my the media in the UK
