Mind you, I was happy to see the Rasta poet turn it down as a protest of the word 'Empire' in OBE

Actually Ace, I thought he was an ungrateful cunt!, he didn,t further the course of rascism very much at all, he is happy to live in the UK, if he still thinks about 400 years of the Empire, and Imperialism, then maybe he should fuck off to a country where his forefathers were not persicuted.....if he can find one, as far as Mr Beckham goes, well it was only a matter of time, I can just about remember when Lennon gave his back, as a publicity stunt, what did he have to groan about, he made a fortune in this country, then fucked off to the states, the land of the free!, until one of the free shot him dead.

Your right Liz, he was ungrateful how he voiced it, I was just happy to hear him throw it back at the establishment.
Your wrong about The Beatles, they were MBE's awarded and Lennon sent his back due to Britains involvement in Biafra.
The rasta poet wanted recognition for his other work, notably his Animal Rights work which he found more rewarding and fulfilling than poetry

Who gives a toss, viva le republic.

I didn,t know about the Beatles reasons Ace, I should have checked with 56 first , the rastas attitude just pissed me off, I,m not establishment, far from it, I just thought he was an ungrateful cunt!.

I don't see a problem with people being recognised for their legitimate good deeds to the community---whether it be the crew of a lifeboat or a lollipop lady. What sickens me is the bowing and scraping they are expected to do to the Genny Mutants when receiving their medals.

Do we actually have a B.E., to be an O. of, anymore?

Not as such.......we just have a Commonwealth now!

So you would rather have Tony Blair (smarm smarm) as a President rather than Prime Minister?
