Hi Kazanne, just seen this.

I just think the honours system is more now a farcical mockery of honours really.

Hope you're doing okay Kazanne.

The honours system is pathetic. You're right, look at Savile.

You have all these useless politicians who've been knighted because they're mates with others in government. The whole thing stinks. Politicians and other figures who've damaged this country get called a Sir.

Then we have that very evil, useless plank Starmer. People are expected to grovel to him calling him a Sir. Never in a million years.

So Beckham joins that list of Sirs. Totally meaningless.

Tbf are we seriously comparing Beckham to a Paedophile? Beckham at least seems like a decent person.

Well his temper tantrum a few years ago has finally paid off.

But tbf to Beckham, the whole thing is a sham anyway.

it's very easy for someone with mega wealth to give a couple of quid to charity and then say, look at me, i'm a really good person

I don’t mind this tbh


He is one if England’s best ever players and gave us soooo many memorable and highlights Z


He’s apparently done loads for charity and numerous other good causes over the years


Even posh spice getting the title of Lady Victoria sits far better than flamin’ Queen Chlamydia !!

That's a really nasty comment Zizu about Camilla tbh I'm shocked as Camilla has done so much for charity like womens refuge,and Battersea dogs home which is so close to my heart, what's posh done ? just pouted here and there, and him kicked a ball about.I just thought that comment somewhat below you.

Hi sheriff,I just didn't see the need for that comment, I know people don't like her and that's up to them but I am told she is a lovely person by someone who has met her.

Well I like The Beckhams...they are mega wealthy and I do believe they do a lot for Charity that we do not get to hear about...like many others. Considering this is one criteria that gets awarded then why shouldn't he. He was a Football Icon.
I have met both of them a couple of times and both of them are respectful and pleasant.

As for Camilla...I like her. I loved Diana but she wasn't a Saint. Camilla has respectfully stayed in the background and stayed quiet and that is admirable imo.

I will always hate Camilla for obvious reasons ( think you’ll find that I am in the majority)

Remember she dare not show her face in public for many years …

People like him, the surviving Pythons, JK Rowling, and David Walliams* are those who should have been knighted long ago.

*I don't care, he gets a lot of children reading.
