MALIGN INFLUENCE

THERE are reports that Britain is planning to strip Robert Mugabe of the honorary knighthood which was given to Robert Mugabe by John Major's government in 1994. I hope this action will not be taken -- it would be such a trivial response to what is going on in Zimbabwe at the moment. The opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai is held for a second time in as many days, British and US diplomats are threatened and detained and -- worst of all -- hundreds of thousands of Zimbabweans are facing hunger and even starvation as humanitarian agencies on which they depend are told by the authorities to stop their activities.
