We should move on from the Howard Beckett story

Posted at 5.20pm UK time


Howard Beckett made a mistake. We are all human; it is in our nature to make mistakes. He has apologised. He has taken down his Tweet.

Now, If you are opposed to cancel culture, as most people say they are, that should be the end of the story! Nothing else matters.


‘Ahh,’ they say, ‘Beckett and his kind love to cancel us – they wouldn’t be so forgiving.’


You are, of course, correct. But you also need to grow up.


Wanting to retributionly (my creation!) cancel people is just what the woke do.
