Undercover reporters (Sun Newspaper) managed to drive a van through the gates of Windsor Castle despite being 'checked out' by security guards. In the van there was a parcel with the word 'BOMB' boldly written on it.........Here we go again, we will no doubt be hearing about how security will now be tighter than ever..AGAIN.

I don't think that was very kind of The Sun.

I see what you mean Bella showing lack of security, But when these reporters do these things like that and go in airport security lounges with things that breach security they are breaking the law and they should be punished accordingly,Only my view mind you. Davexx

I really don't care about the wedding anymore. They're flattering themselves if they think they're worth being blown up! They don't rule the country anymore. He should just marry her, and renounce the throne. The other two Charles' weren't all that popular either! Chloe

I guess that's one cop who will spend some time directing traffic in the Outer hebrides then.

'Having to make up their own stories'. I like it Budgie. At least the readers will have a few extra words to read tomorrow and maybe a little less pictures.

The place they done it is suposed to be the most secure place in Britain at the moment. This stunt may have helped avert a real threat on the day. We don't know.

It's a schoolboy stunt. It has been calculated that to be a 'Sun' reader you must have a reading age of seven, enough said! Louise

I think the point has been missed. The fact that this `childish` paper manged to do it surely must indicate a problem.

Do we know whether the security is contracted out? Shouldn't the Police be in charge of the security? I agree that it shows a big problem with their security strategies. Louise

Why should the police be in charge of security? Why should the taxpayers PAY for security at someone's wedding?? Yeah they're the royal family (I'm a royalist by the way) BUT we pay enough for them already, let them pay for their own security!! I doubt anyone would be much upset if something happened to Camilla. Like I said before, or maybe I didn't, there are more important things happening in this world other than Charles and Camilla's wedding. Don't particularly care (don't much like Camilla) about their marriage. As long as she isn't Queen, and he isn't King!! He's a baffoon! Already he's more and more like his father everyday! Chloe
