Livia Firth returns MBE protesting UK appeasement of Trump
Livia Firth, an environmental activist and ex-wife of actor Colin Firth, has returned her honorary MBE in protest against Britain's "appeasement" of US President Donald Trump during his recent UK state visit. She publicly tore up her MBE certificate and sent back the medal, expressing that she could not reconcile the honor she received for promoting sustainable fashion with the UK government's welcoming and legitimization of Trump. Firth criticized the UK’s treatment of Trump as a "frightening and cowardly display of appeasement" that contradicts the values she believed King Charles upheld, particularly in light of Trump's rhetoric and policies which she views as harmful to the natural world and vulnerable populations. She stated that her MBE was accepted on behalf of garment worker activists and condemned the British Empire's legacy, yet felt compelled to return the honor due to the UK's recent actions. Through social media and letters, Firth made clear her stance that taking a stand was necessary to express dissent against the political normalization of Trump. Her protest has drawn attention to the ethical and political implications of state honors and diplomatic receptions.
