Olivia Newton John has been named a Dame, i thought she was Australian?

She is, which means she can't officially use the 'Dame' title (Although obviously people do and no one cares).
My reply was to the person talking about "sir" Freddie and the fact he may not be have allowed to be called that.

I agree, especially Wogan and Magnusson. Disgraceful.

The monarchy and establishment can go and fuck off for all I care. People don't realise how much damage the British Empire did. Disappointed that Roger has accepted the OBE but to be honest I wouldn't expect anything less for someone that performed at the Queen's Jubilee.

*from someone, I meant.

Maylor should be punished for their crimes against good music since 1995 onwards and desecrating the Queen legacy and for insulting their great late bandmate by replacing him with a sad twat and shitting on him with an insulting movie.

Agree with the first sentence, wholeheartedly.
The second though, well, this ain't unique to the British Empire. From the Romans to date, there can't be many empires that didn't do "damage". All empires are about extension via exploitation - either of the populous or the natural resources. Sometimes they leave behind some good/improvements, but usually at a huge cost.
Whoever put this together must have had an agenda , but this list puts Britain at number one as most the exploitative abusive regime. Ahead of Soviet Union, Nazis, Khmer Rouge etc.
I don’t actually agree with this ...but it’s out there.

Olivia Newton John is British. She was born in Cambridge. She is entitled to use the term "Dame" if she wishes to.

It is way more important that May is now a Vegan and is showering away his xmas depression

Roger's OBE is not important. I'd say the depression awareness thing is, though.
Couldn't give a toss if Brian never mentioned it (the OBE) tbh. Just my opinion.
