Re: Arise sir lewis

Hi

I am a white male ex manager.

Discrimination was alien to me.

In 1989 I was seriously injured, on Crutches for years and then sticks.

I was subject to abuse and discrimination.

It was not pleasant.

Not only regularly abused as being a cripple, but given a few kickings and having my crutches taken and having to crawl just to amuse them.

I got better and without the crutches, the discrimination, taunts and abuse stopped.

If you are black you cannot change your colour.

I am not the nicest of people.

The local pillocks who had made my life hell did not enjoy life when I got better.

I do not do gestures like taking the knee.

I did however make sure they knew my views.

Just shows what rubbish the so called honours system is. I see nothing honourable in being associated with some of the dross that are on the list these days.

Completely agree Tabs, mostly a travesty which has just been proven..
