Congrats to my wife, Elaine Bousfield, for being honoured with an MBE by King Charles in the #NewYearHonours

Arise all ye cap-doffing lickspittles and a reminder of those who refused to bend the knee to the monarchy and told the British Empire to go fuck itself:

Alan Bennett
David Bowie
Julie Christie
Albert Finney
Glenda Jackson
L S Lowry
Bridget Riley
Paul Weller
Benjamin Zephaniah
et al

Benjamin Zephaniah - "I get angry when I hear the word 'empire'; it reminds me of slavery, it reminds me of thousands of years of brutality..."
