But fair enough, if Paul McCartney or Mick Jagger wants me to call them Sirs, then fine. They have achieved one heck of a lot in their lifetimes, so okay. 
But I had a laugh this week at Rod Liddle who was guesting on Talk Radio. He was slagging of Starmer like there was no tomorrow, and rightly so. But still Liddle couldn't resist bowing down to Starmer calling him a Sir four times.  Liddle showing 'respect' after saying so many bad things about Starmer. It didn't add up. Liddle didn't have to call Starmer a Sir (not everyone does) but he did. Liddle bowing down, taking off cloth cap in respect. He wasn't do it mocking Starmer. He meant it.
Just made me laugh.

Meh. It's literally his legal title. I don't know enough about Liddle to know if he'd call BoJo "Mr Johnson" during a rant?
