Love this!
Astonishing in it's speed, depth and thoroughness? Yes I thought so too.
Boycott is a boorish, loud idiot - and a hero of Theresa May, maybe because they share a few character traits.
The 'honour' that annoyed me more was making John Mann a lord - but again no surprise that the Tories would reward him.
The whole honours system should be ripped up. It has always been abused and used for political purposes - usually to promote friends and donors of the ruling elite - with a few scraps thrown to charity workers and lollipop women/men.
But the titles come with so much offensive baggage I would rather some new system of public recognition for exceptional service or contribution to society started from scratch. Time for this country (and others) to grow up and consign monarchs, peers, knights and dames, and holders of medals banging on about the British Empire to the history books!

Sound advice. :thumbup:
Those weren't the character traits I was thought they shared. But wooden, lacking empathy, and any number of other ones... yes.
What chip on my shoulder? A lifelong grievance against Tories (blue ones, yellow ones, celebrity ones and John Mann) and all they represent? If that's what you're trying to suggest then yes.
Were there photo's back in those days , and media reports , police evidence photographs , like to see see the impact of someone being hit 20 times by a fit sportsman .
If I slapped someone about 20 times they would would be hospitalized and very a badly cut ,bleeding ,swellings .
Ms Moore, who ran a computer consultancy in Monaco , is a tax free haven with a certain type of folk , just saying , ????/
Possibly your most bizarre post. You seem to be suggesting that this was some kind of scam by some floozie on a get rich quick trip and if you had slapped her around rather than Boycott she would have stayed slapped. Apparently the French police and appeal court didn't share your innuendo but that's bloody foreign justice I suppose.
I really dont know, I'm just don't get the lack of pictorial evidence ,hospitalized reports ,being struck 20 times by a man is a serous bodily attack , surly that would have left so much damage to the lady in question ,and if produced would have nailed him forever , and never allowed back in an appeal , I just understand it ,it correct there was a row , just think the overall accusation is a bit smelly and exaggerated ??????????
Geoffrey Boycott’s self-absorption has always kept him close to controversy
