They probably weren't invited at all. Remember when the England Rugby team came back home to celebrate their achievement? Opposition members weren't invited along at all, rather they were told to use the back door leading to Downing Street. Prescott laid a wreath, but he's the man "who is in charge" of running the country. A frightening thought in Princess Tony's absence.

Clive why are you so wrong again? I have checked with the labour partys central command committee and both opposition leaders were given the opportunity to attend the VJ celebrations.

Glad for Peter's clarification - I shall certainly be following this up internally
