Guy Fawkes
I agree. It one thing for Clean Peaceful Protesting but it crosses the line when it comes to throwing fireworks and yelling insults, At that point they are just being rowdy and disrespectful and in poor taste. You don't see peoples in the U.S throwing fireworks or rocks at the White House Those peoples should be arrested. It is uncivilized and like you said and BP is not just the Home of Britain Head of State (HM The Queen and Prince Philip) like But it is also a Historical Building. IT is vandalismThere's a great difference between protesters and those uncivilized anarchists in front of Buckingham Palace.
Throwing fireworks in a historical building, which is also the official residence of the Head of State, a 87 years old woman who lives there with her 92 years old husband, is vandalism. And those people should be arrested.
The state visit seems to be half-baked. The super hard-working senior royals did not care for this visit.
President Park Guen-hye looked sloppy wearing trousers. Her gala ensenmble is lovely.
Compared to other visits, this one appears cheap in my personal opinion.

The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh gave a State Banquet this evening in honour of The President of the Republic of Korea at which The Earl of Wessex, The Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and The Duke of Kent were present.
I agree, the president looked stunning indeed.
As for the ´cheap´ remark: I think that that perhaps has to do with the fact that in these British state visits it is sometimes difficult to get a picture of all royal ladies and their tiaras since the British court doesn´t pose for a group photo before the dinner and we don´t see much of the other ladies apart from HM, which makes you wonder if the others were there at all.
Exactly. You have to look very hard into the background of the posed photos to even spot the other Royals.
Which is one of the reasons why I wish palace officials and the royal press office would help provide more coverage of these State Visits on the official Monarchy website. I'm talking about Live Video coverage or at least more photo opportunities. I totally understand the need to photograph The Queen and the visiting Head of State but I think they could also provide pictures and arrival coverage of the royals and other guest who's attending the State Banquets.
I don't think that's asking for much.
