"HONOURS recipients are calling for “Empire” to be dropped from OBE, MBE and other awards.

They say references to Britain’s colonial past are offensive to many and want it replaced with the word “Excellence”."

One hundred recent recipients have signed a letter asking for the change.

Frankly... Good.

I've long thought the current honours system a joke, and a bunch of Nancy boy footballers, cricketers and third rate singers should never have been able to misappropriate the glorious Empire insignia.

Let's give the Empire back the respect and love it deserves.

I think it's bollocks, and would not accept one myself.

However, it does no harm, and is a cheap way of making people feel important.

I have much more problem with the peer system.

Why has she got responsibility? Don't like then don't accept it in the first place...

OK I realise it was a tough question. Bit unfair of me.

But that's the nuts and bolts of all issues really innit. You end up with some of your crew liking some bits of free speech but only by the right people. And not if they veer off the woke path too much.

Let’s get back to your use of the term ‘Nancy boy’ ?

Let's carry on with the subject of the thread.

I note you are currently unable to unscramble Pollys woke logic.

What makes a person a ‘Nancy boy ’? Your words not mine, Polly can do what she wants with her honour ,

You can start your own thread on anything you are confused about and I will chip in with my answers. It's not fair on the serious posters to divert the thread off track I'm sure you agree.

Youre OK with Polly keeping her honour, so should she be able to use the new National Flagship?

Polly can do whatever she likes with her ‘honour’ she earned it,

OK...

If she makes a speech saying "I'm immensely proud to have been awarded Order of the British Empire, this medal of the Empire means a lot to me" that's OK?

She can mention the Empire yes?

If?

Yep

Simple concept

You said she can do what she wants with her honour. Soundle like actually you've got some limits.

If, buts & maybes, let’s deal with facts not speculation, what ‘if’ she makes a speech saying the opposite? What ‘if’ ? What ‘if’? What ‘if’?

OK I realise it was a tough question. Bit unfair of me.

But that's the nuts and bolts of all issues really innit. You end up with some of your crew liking some bits of free speech but only by the right people. And not if they veer off the woke path too much. "

Are you making stuff up again? Anyway, what is a ‘Nancy boy ‘ ?

Love this muddle headed woke thinking rubbish

Why has she got responsibility? Don't like then don't accept it in the first place...

Oh and do it quietly, not like dear old Benjamin and others who have to virtue signal as loudly as possible.

Your living in the past, the empire died years ago, I know your confused and angry but you will get over it

Do you think Polly was right to accept something she clearly considers offensive?

The empire is finished, your confusion and rage is worrying,

Sounds like you think Polly was wrong then.

I’d restrict Empire honours to acts of outstanding heroism and sacrifice, so pretty much George Medals and VCs.

The term “Nancy Boy” referenced an effeminate man who was usually passive and usually homosexual.

In footballing terms it stereotypically meant acting like a girl which was meant to imply that one would fall over at the merest touch or overreact to even a hint of physicality which if you watch women’s football is as far from the truth as is possible.

I can remember watching the Dick Emery show and for some reason the term Nancy Boy was used for a character called Clarence who was probably gay and whose greeting was “Hello Honky Tonks”, though my point of interest was the character Mandy who was not transgender but was obviously played by a man pretending to be a woman.

The term and perhaps Dick Emery comes from a time that is generally not acceptable now but trying to airbrush the past also erases the progress that has been made and the work and effort that still needs doing.

I try not to get hung up on words and terms. It would be a shame if songs like Nancy Boy or Lola (Kinks) were deemed unacceptable as even though they can be construed wrongly i tend to see them from a different angle.

"macron nailed it yesterday when he talked about belfast not being part of britain ... it's best that the union be ignored and realise that there are now four entirely separate countries.

Macron is making the same mistake he did at the end of December, overplaying his hand, and he’s going to be slapped down by others in Europe.

Careful about mentioning slapped down by others it’s a touchy subject "

Er is it?

Blimey if people cared as much about issues as they do about their interpretations of words, we’d live in a much better world.

Epic levels of passive aggression

The most notable aspect since the knitting circle has disbanded is the absence of the pack of dog like threads.

I mean, god forbid the gmnt are using it distract from the fact that the mail was wanking itself over who we had stuffed it to the eu,and a more 6 months later,we are desperately trying to weasel out of it?"

Apparently no he did not but when the story broke macron's people claimed

""HONOURS recipients are calling for “Empire” to be dropped from OBE, MBE and other awards.

They say references to Britain’s colonial past are offensive to many and want it replaced with the word “Excellence”."

One hundred recent recipients have signed a letter asking for the change.

Frankly... Good.

I've long thought the current honours system a joke, and a bunch of Nancy boy footballers, cricketers and third rate singers should never have been able to misappropriate the glorious Empire insignia.

Let's give the Empire back the respect and love it deserves.

"

Nice to see it replaced, in fact the whole honours system is crap. Even if they replace the word empire, will they also remove the empire qualification for the award as well. The whole lot is not fit for purpose these days.
