Sir Robert Harvey

[Megamaguire]

'Sir Dog' 'Banger' or 'Harves' is in no way diminished in not having (in my view) a sucky prefix tacked onto his own name. We know who he is!
Prefixes like sir; dame; duke; marquise to name but a few only hark back to a pre democratic era when decision-making and voting on issues were the sole privilage of the privilaged classes.

Could you imagine Sir Elvis - i know there does exist in our rock universe a Sir Mick Jagger and a Sir Elton John cringe !

For the life of me i cant see what is wrong with just 'Elton'; 'Mick and even 'Elvis'.
Just had to throw my 5 cents worth in - just can't stomach those throw-back titles of aristocratic fame.

G O S A I N T S
G O 'HARVES!

wouldn't want to denigrate harvey's name with a knighthood.

have a look at the namby pamby crooks, old men, paedo's, etc who have knight hoods.

I guess I am too young to know but what exactly has Rolf Harris done to make him worth of being knighted?

the knight of the whobble board ??
should of been hung for his whobble board version of stairway to heaven

they don't hang people in Britain any more Trav. You're being a bit harsh there. Rolf Harris is an accomplished artist and musician in his own right. His wobble board and British paints antics have largely been the media face of a man who has contributed to the development of the Australian arts community his whole life. Deserves every bit of recognition he receives.
