Draft:Sir Patrick Bijou

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: I assume the 'Sir' is meant to denote knighthood, rather than being a part of the name? In which case, is there any actual evidence that this person has been knighted? And if so, that he is entitled to use the 'Sir' prefix? The only mention of knighthood I found was in a press release issued by his office, saying that the Sovereign Military Order of Malta has knighted him, but I don't think that makes him a 'Sir', at least not in the UK or Commonwealth countries. Also, such a press release is hardly reliable evidence. He also seems to like referring to himself as 'His Excellency' – what is the basis for that? DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:55, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
