[Gllug] Alan Turing petition

[t.clarke]

A bit off original topic -
Maybe its my jaundiced perspective, but it seems only big-business types (that
donate cash to whoiver is in power) and entertainment 'luminaries' get
knighthoods and similar honours.

It seems that
a) those in power wish to toady to those that can provide them with nice
non-exec positions etc when they finally lose power
and
b) they wish to try and gain popularity with the masses by honouring popular
entertaintment figures


Maybe we will be seeing 'Sir David'  before long ??
