The Daily Telegraph and Daily Mail are -- as is suprisingly often the case -- attacking the police today, this time for their handling on Prince William's 21st birthday. Although clearly a major security breach, it's not hard to see how it happened. The police had to deal with lots of rather stupid and arrogant public schoolboys used to getting their own way, who had probably been unhelpful in showing their tickets (think of William -- if you think you had a divine right to rule you probably think you have a right to go to a party without a policeman stopping you) and then another similarly clad fool comes along and hey presto -- you let him in.
