Returning OBE


I can tell imagine more are to follow. I read John Lennon returned his as well. I recalled when Alan hosted "Mystery" on PBS or maybe it was Masterpiece.

If he feels that strongly about the Empire, he shouldn't have accepted the award in the first place. He's another dullard who has decided to jump on the bandwagon.

reply

Who else did that before him?

reply

Entitled diva gives back a meaningless trinket because people in the past did bad thigs. Clownworld just got a new champion.

reply

Not just past. A comedian once said The British Museum is like an active crime scene, full of stolen treasures. You don't see them being returned, do you?

reply

Conquered people don't get a say in what happens to the artefacts that were looted from them.

reply

More like nobody was listening.

Well, at least some people heard it and don't feel good about it.

reply

Only the weak.

reply

Well, not everyone is decent, in fact not many are, and only a few of those who have the courage to be different.

And ordinary people call them "weak", and are proud of their own low character, then again that is a part of being ordinary.

reply

There's nothing decent about being a professional adult pretender and accepting all of the honour associated with an OBE for 14 years then once the monarch who gave you it dies you cast it away for social justice brownie points because it's currently trendy to be an unpatriotic socialist scumbag. It's not courageous to brownnose people who are like that either, what it is is pathetic.

reply

Hear, hear.

reply

And he only realized the British museum had artifacts from other cultures (erm like most museums) in the last 14 years? That would make him an idiot, if not then he's a massive hypocrite.

reply

Most people don't have the courage to say something like that, fear the backlash from the establishment, those people are the hypocrite.

Like I said before few have the courage.

reply

You think he's speaking against the establishment? The anti-white/anti-west rhetoric and let's be honest; that's what this is all about, is the establishment stance. Conservatives are now anti-establishment.
What backlash do you think he's going to get? A few youtubers taking the piss?
What s stunning and brave little trooper he is.

We know what we know. What you are saying is your imagination.

For him? Less job opportunities for starters. There will be a lot of establishment people would no longer work with him. Less brand endorsements, less awards and less parties to attend to, losing some of the network opportunities. But I think he is closing to retirement, probably does not care anymore.

Conservatives are now anti-establishment.

Liberals and conservatives together form the establishment. Their only real difference is that they are backed by different billionaires.

This really is pitiful. Just show how far you have been brainwashed by the media. Mainstream media are all owned by very rich people, they are the ones created this polarization, so ordinary people like you would fight among yourselves, too busy to notice what elites are doing. If you paid attention you would have found that what they do is not all that different, but you could not tell, could you?
