A great example of a deserving sportsman deserving a public recognition! Marcus Rashford MBE is on his way to it and his activism is not discriminatory either (unless you count ageism lol).

Do an image search on each of them, looking among the standard sports shots, highlights the difference (only my opinion of course! lol, but to me it really shows a difference in their attitudes - I realise there is about 12-13 years separating their 'experience').

Does not live in the UK, pays no Tax, takes a knee in support of a Marxist organisation, knighthood was devalued years ago, and Boris is an idiot.

Hamilton is one of the greats but there is no doubt that his superior car is responsible for a lot of his success , and in my opinion if he is not resident in the UK he shouldn’t get a knighthood

In any case if having the best car gets you a gong these days shouldn’t all 75/ZT owners be getting an MBE or the like !!!

One of the greatest motorcycle racers ever. Lives in Morecambe.

I know F1 can be dangerous but this is on another level.

I was thinking that those of us who go to Nano meets to get work done should be awarded an OBE - Other Bugg.ers Efforts.

After all without all their efforts we would be in a sorry state.
