Futile or not RB made a gesture, he can now live with his concience and presumably sleep well at night. He earned the award and is expected to use it to further the work he is doing. Roy has always been very political this is a political gesture. I may not agree with all his politics but I have a hell of a respect for him and this is a fine political gesture, done in the furtherance of his work and beliefs and I support him for it. I do also agree that when we follow the Spooky Mens suggestion and 'Vote the b*st*rds out' what we get to replace them will be very little better (if at all!). Well done Roy! Andy
