The award Rashford got was a 'buy off' from the government.
The lad, literally, became the leader of the opposition at one point, and fair play to him for that. But, by accepting the award he has diminished his own standing, and at the same time allowed a government, that voted to take food away from children, off the hook.
He may now have an mbe, but kids are still hungry.
He should have refused it until such time that legislation was introduced to eliminate child poverty and hunger in this country. THAT is what he could have achieved. But he took the bait and promptly stuck that moniker onto his twitter handle.
So, let's look at the upshot of it all.
1. Cunty Government get off the hook
2. Rushford gets an mbe
3. Utd bask in reflected holy glory
4. Kids are still hungry
5. Families are poorer

And the government state that Britain isn't a corrupt country? Everyone is corruptible in the right circumstances. Even St. Marcus.
"How about a joint PR campaign that's bags you an MBE?"

Not like the Tories have form on giving out honours for doing something for them.
 
Nobody ever condemned Vinny for all his charity work, yet it was barely reported in the press, if at all.
Or Bellamy’s or Sterling’s or any of the other hundreds of pro footballers who do loads of charity work in this country & beyond

He’s done a really positive thing, some of which may of course be for self gain, but he’s no saint & certainly shouldn’t have been given an MBE

I’d have been really impressed if he had said that all the extra money he receives from tax loopholes he uses was going to help feed kids in need. Don’t think he’s made that statement tho has he?
