News that Prince Harry and his fiancée Meghan Markle will be tying the knot in spring 2018 hasn't been greeted with universal joy from the wider public.

A large number saw it as a chance to unleash on social media and hit out at the "millions and millions" that will go towards staging yet another royal wedding - while, for example, the number of people flocking to food banks reaches a record high.

Saying 'no one cares', Mitch Quirk added in a comment on Facebook post: "Millions and millions spent on another pointless royal event while hundreds of thousands have to use food banks."

One pointed out that the millions come straight out of British taxpayers' pockets.
