The Mirror must be a foundation of British liberalism. The Royals knew fully what would be entailed with a state visit from the POTUS. Both inside and outside the palace.

I heard a guest on FNC talking about what it's like to have the President visit some place. Anywhere the President goes is prepared well in advance. If Secret Service or the electrical intallers don't like a wall, guess what? They remove that wall! The place is changed immensely and often needs major repair or restoration after the visit. This isn't unusual at all.

Perhaps the Queen is really furious with her insurance carrier for not covering the repair costs.

The Mirror is usually in the forefront of tabloid royal-bashing. They couldn't give a toss about the Queen. They are a pro-Labor Party, pro-socialist paper. These are all crocodile tears.

It's simply an opportunity of convenience to trash Bush.

Perhaps its all BS. Marine One doesn't screw up/chew up the White House lawn.

Lefties, embarrassed that their anti-war demo was a bust, have to find something else to whine about (even if that means making it up.)
