Prince William Finds a Bride

Prince William and Kate Middleton made it official on Tuesday morning that they plan on getting married amid years of speculation and anticipation. Prince Charles issued the statement this morning saying that the young Prince William has informed the Queen and the father of the bride. Although this doesnt have the political significance of the Irish Bailout or the vote of no confidance by the Italian Government it serves as an example of Britians Royal family in action. The wedding is sure to be highly publicized with the intent of bringing in revenue for the British governement. One interesting note about the wedding is that Prince William proposed with the ring that Prince Charles gave to Princess Diana. Party leaders in the British Parliment gave their opinion in the article as well.
