truly, sire, I am humbled at such an honour. Perhaps the titel should be
suffixed AA (After Arthur)

An oik, is one of those ghaslty individuals that successive socialist
governments have encouraged to such a degree that they are even allowed to
vote now. ..... They epitomise everything that irritates sensible British
people.
Goatee beards and an unwashed appearance, with a minimal command of the
Queens English, yet still hold down a job in the media. They take up space.
Like footballers. Almost as irritating as former butlers to the late Royal
bint.
