Over a hundred people are killed by storms in the southern USA. (And my most heartfelt sympathy for my American friends, as well as hopes that none of you was personally affected.)

There is war in Libya and violence in Syria, and revolution and repression across the Arab world.

There are local elections across Britain, including the very sensitive area of North Ireland.

Several police-related scandals are on the boil. Not one, several.

Lionel Messi has scored one of the most beautiful goals in the history of soccer, and made his team European champions in a highly charged inter-Spanish duel in the process.

Just a few of the important news around today.

And the BBC dedicates FIFTEEN MINUTES to the PRELIMINARIES of tomorrow's wedding. Not to the wedding, to the PRELIMINARIES. Most of it apparently dedicated to crazy Americans sleeping rough in Westminster - which, in the circumstances, seems heartless as well as disgusting.
