Madness.

Sadiq Khan knighted despite rising crime, rising murders and creating ghettos in London.

Gareth Southgate knighted for winning NOTHING.

Stephen Fry knighted for supporting kids going through gender reassignment surgery.

The country has gone mad.

He was a supporter of young kids under going gender realignment surgery, he has not apologised now it’s been proven to be an evil trade.

Sir Jimmy Saville and now Sir Stephen Fry, both deviants.
Get a grip.  I've known Stephen for over 30 years and he's neither woke or a corpse fucker.  I'm surprised that they gave that reason for his honour though as it should be for his contribution to the entertainment industry, which has been immense.  He also does a great deal of charitable work.
Alfs, you'd be better off putting Fanny Craddock on ignore.

Fry's recent appearance on TRIGGERNOMETRY is well worth a listen, seems like a very decent man.


Elsewhere, it seems that being an incompetent sack of shit has its rewards as Emily Thornbury is made a Dame.

While no fan of khan whatsoever. People are forgetting the Tories literally stuffed the lords full of their cronies. Shaun bailey and Charlotte Owen for starters . I hope this new government carries out their threat of making it a fully elected chamber. The swamp needs to be drained completely .

Always liked Stephen Fry, yes, he seems a bit excentric but also talks a lot of sense and regularly calls out stuff for being ridiculous or hypocritical, probably harsh of me to say all 3 of those mentioned in the OP are woke as fuck as clearly Fry isn't, maybe on the left, but not the nutty woke apologist left who hates all things about our culture, he's more what i would call a rational and reasonable person who supports what the left used to be all about, that is working people and those vulnerable and disadvantaged..

No problem with him getting a knighthood, as you know he's one of the few who will use it to help others.

Hes also contributed greatly to UK comedy, well before it all got watered down by the woke BBC etc.! so for that he deserves recognition amongst other things he has done and been supportive of.

Fuck me!

All Labour fan boys, all woke as fuck.

UK, Dogs etc

Southgate especially for utter failure with the gifted squad he had and the favorable draw he had at especially the 2018 WC but he somehow managed to fuck it all up. The best thing he's done was the Pizza Hut advert after Euro 96 and services to waistcoats.
