Why is everyone so upset about the Commonwealth opening ceremony?

I thought it was funny and seemed like a student party.

What was the deal with the statue with the cone on its head though?

The staue is of the Duke Of Wellington. His Statue slways seems to have a traffic cone on his head courtesy of the local drunken revellers who are determined he needs it.

its a Glasgow landmark and a sign we take no-one very seriously.

It was ok but a bit cheap & cheerful. Not a patch on 2012 Olympics.

It looked like it was put together by school kids. Heaven knows what the rest of the Commonwealth thought. Too much about Gays and UNICEF.

Shamefull.

UK

it was a joke.

one big mess from start to finsh
