        @cnnbrk Anachronistic maybe, but harmless surely? I'm sure the recipients are pleased with recognition; if not it's possible to refuse.

        @MTUK1London @cnnbrk Very true. I suppose it depends on how much you value the history of your country.

        @LesleyMCox @cnnbrk You can value history and still be modern. Using that argument you could take away a womans right to vote as its history

        @MTUK1London @cnnbrk I doubt that. That would be going backwards. Knighthoods is merely preserving the status quo.

        @LesleyMCox @cnnbrk Not really. It's preserving something that's antiquated. Along the same lines as bowing to the queen.

        @LesleyMCox @cnnbrk I do appreciate our history. I don't appreciate being expected to carry out some strange practices in modern times.

        @AvaniJardin @cnnbrk Nothing to do with being PC. It's being in the modern world. Why should anyone bow and scrape to another person in 2015
