What's people's thoughts on his knighthood?
I think what he did was inexcusable, and his failure to accept his guilt since should mean that he is not the right sort of person to be knighted.
Let's face it though, he is not the only tosser to be honoured by the Queen, so is this as much about opportunism from women's rights groups, as condemning his reprehensible behaviour.
Being up in arms about some civil servant with a dodgy past does not gain quite the same level of publicity, as going after a famous Yorkshireman that nobody ever liked in the first place.
