I think my head's going to explode if I read one more time that the government should be funding the NHS.

This old boy is raising funds for NHS CHARITIES.. C H A R I T I E S.

How nice they made him an honorary colonel.

I know I have made the same comment several times but it is completely ignored, I would love to know how many run the London Marathon every year for NHS CHARITIES but nobody bats an eyelid

Can someone please give me a brief on this story? Apologies I didnt really follow it from the start.

From what I understand he was an old man who walked around his house to raise money for the NHS and lots of people gave money so now he is being knighted?

Really special and well deserved moment.
He in my view, warranted this or other honour anyway.
Over most of the other celebrity recipients of them over the decades.
