The amount of attention being given to this is absurd. It was tasteless and dumb, but I mean c'mon, the top story everywhere for 2 days? It was a fancy dress costume, not a political endorsement.

Further proof that the monarcy should be abolished not just for the good of the UK (and its sanity), but for the good of the royals too.

Isn't a large part of the UK's tourism industry based upon the royal family? Buckingham Palace and such. If there were no sitting royals perhaps it would cut down on those who come to the country to gawk at them. This is a pretty half-assed reason but it is all I could come up with. Also, if there were no royal family it would surely put thousands at the tabloids out of work. Can't have that.
