Zephaniah refuses the Queen's honour in Kary
Stewart's new video |
Benjamin
Zephaniah is a Jamaican born British poet,
writer and musician. He is best known for
his works for children and also his
vociferous left of centre approach to
political and social issues. Earlier this
year the Queen and British Prime Minister
Tony Blair, added him to the Honours list to
be awarded an OBE for services to the Arts.

me? Up yours, I thought….No way, Mr.
Blair. No way, Mrs. Queen.”.
