Malala Yousafzai

So Malala Yousafzai becomes the youngest recipient ever of the Nobel Peace Prize when the joint award was announced today. Okay, so I was out by a year when I uploaded the following blog post in October 2013, but nevertheless the receipt of the award for me was always a given. 

"So Malala Yousafzai is favourite to win the Nobel Peace Prize when the Winner is announced this coming Friday.  Well, there is no surprise there then.  Especially if you had read my Blog Post of the 03 September 2013 when I commented upon the madness of the decision to cut the broadcast of one of Malala Yousafzai's speeches in mid flow."

Maybe the BBC can now respond by repeating her astonishing speech of 2013 in full.
