        @AbiWilks @Little_G2 @CCriadoPerez but they were going to have that anyway. I'm done with trying not to horrify the Daily Mail.

        @PennyRed @Little_G2 @CCriadoPerez I don't think any protest can give up on the PR battle when public opinion is a lot of the point though

        Are you sure she was awarded it as an individual; the George Cross was awarded to the people of Malta en masse not individually ? @PennyRed

        @hjoneshojo she got her own, because she worked in the war rooms. It was buried with her.

        @PennyRed @hjoneshojo So you mean the one given to the Island of Malta? None have been given individually to any on Malta.

        @PennyRed @Little_G2 @CCriadoPerez so you think daubing slogans on war memorials is acceptable behaviour? That's disgusting.

        @PennyRed Here's what's wrong with it: 1) describing other people as 'scum' (dehumanising, mean), 2) defacing a memorial (disrespectful).
