You know what? Give it to him. Why not? Give everyone one.

This man at 77 was hospitalised and I would be calling for him to get recognised for his bravery no matter what party the MP came from. This man showed amazing courage and very nearly got killed himself. Politics should not come into this murder, no matter some peoples likely prejudices. This was an attack on an MP and in fact democracy. This elderly man tried to stand up against that,of course he should get a top award for his efforts.

What this man did was heroic, nobody is disputing that but the 52 year old woman who saved my sisters life was just as heroic. She was taken to Scotland and given a bravery award and compensated for her injuries (he severed through the tendons in her right arm.) but she didn't get the George Cross or even the George Medal. If he gets one then she should get one too.

Nobody is saying he shouldn't be honoured. He will be honoured and he will be heavily compensated for his injuries.

You rarely hear of people facing up to assailants with guns and/or knives though do you?

A lot of knighthoods and Dame titles are throw at people just for entertainment,many street singers sing better than a lot in the charts. However,this is a man almost 80 for goodness sake,who went to the aid of a woman who was being stabbed and then also shot,being brutally murdered,he then got stabbed himself in the abdomen. I don't see where anyone is coming from at all that would deny or nitpick at this man being given a really high recognition for his brave and unselfish effort. Very sadly in the UK the honours system stinks as to those who get them. Nurses and Doctors for instance,save lives every day but that's classed as their work. A footballer can score loads of goals and get a Knighthood, bonkers. I would like to see anyone who acts as heroic and bravely as this 77 year old man did get a top medal for his bravery,including the person you mentioned. It really mystifies and indeed saddens me anyone would even want to appear to, in any way, begrudge him getting a top medal. |

I told you lot about my sisters attack when I first joined this group. She only had the one attack but I guess your insinuating that I'm making **** up?

Don't you think you have an unlucky streak? You hubby was caught in crossfire (I think), you recently had a needle stick injury, your sister has had something awful happen to her (I don't know what) so Im just stating the obvious not insinuating anything tyvm

This happened in Leeds Kizzy, and it made the local evening post a couple of times but it didn't end up in the national papers. It should of done but then perhaps people save others more often than we know.

I ought to explain that I laughed out loud at Cherie's 'dig' at Scotland only, and that my post here is not any kind of comment on any other discussion or debate on this thread.

And yes I think Bernard Kenny should definitely get some sort of bravery award.
