Angry Queen strips Mugabe of knighthood

Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe's honorary Knighthood has been annulled by the Queen, the BBC has learned.
Mr Mugabe, condemned over violence ahead of a presidential run-off election, was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath in 1994.
Foreign Secretary David Miliband recommended to the Queen that he be stripped of the honour - and the Queen has approved that request. Ministers are also trying to block a Zimbabwe cricket tour next year

Milliband only found out on live telly that the guy had a knighthood. It was question time with Dimbleby. The simple minded fucker has just had a brainwave and decided that by removing it, the world will be a better place thanks to his genius.

What a plank.
