Dave Morris has been making a special present for the royal wedding couple in his London garden… a guillotine. He says it's the best way of dealing with royalty, and he's one of the people definitely not celebrating today's big occasion.
SBS's Dateline interviewed him for this Sunday's program on Britain's anti-royal movement, which also reveals increasing interest in the kind of Republican arguments more usually heard in Australia.
Graham Smith is behind the Republican Movement and says, “I don't think, in a country that claims to be a democracy, we should be allowing one family to be inheriting the highest office in the land.”
Anti-monarchy punk bands are also getting in on the act.
“They never chipped in to my two marriages,” says one member of the Test Tube Babies, “so why should my tax money go towards theirs.”

Royal souvenirs
Dateline also finds a more light-hearted take on wedding souvenirs… 'Throne Up' royal wedding sick bags are the brainchild of artist Lydia Leath.
She says she's sold over seven thousand of them to people across the world.
So it's clear these people won't be on the invite list for today's ceremony, but how much do they reflect opinion in the UK?
Watch Dateline this Sunday at 8.30pm on SBS ONE, and go online now to find out more about the story.
