Martin Amis: fire away!

I would also say
d) After Savile died we were told that he couldn't posthumously be stripped of his knighthood as it ended with his death anyway.

the ‘martin amis faked his death’ conspiracy theory starts here

Amis accepted it, apparently they told him about it last month. & they have dated it to the day before he died because the convention is still that knighthoods don’t apply posthumously (can’t change that or Charles might have to officially revoke that of his hero savile)

So the idea is amis is officially retroactively a Sir for one day and then not, it’s v pointless

or the knighthood killed him

It would be great if it had that effect on all recipients

a sudden nerve twinge made charles slash instead of dub, rip martin

Given that Fosse won the Novel today I should bring up this tweet.

Where, like Fosse, we have some deployment of repetition
