Non Van-Tam, Whitty et al

[wingsnwheels]

Pleased to see Professors Van-Tam and Whitty have been Knighted, also Jenny Harries becoming a Dame.
Anyone involved in the speedy development of the vaccines and getting it into people's arms deserves recognition. Nice to see Joanna Lovely become a Dame too! Downside is the B-liar creature being Knighted IMO!

respect to stephen hawking, david bowie etc for telling them where they could put their "honours", over the years.

The whole honours system should be abolished, along with the House of Lords.

Shame... that Phillip Schofield didnt get his Damehood ....haha !

Think like those 3 mentioned in the title of this thread deserve their recognition.

But others who have had the same title Not.

The last sentence of the opening post I thoroughly agree with.

Two young lads who feature on the front of the Mirror who have raised money for certain causes are the ones who should get the plaudits.

Was what followed any better?

Maybe, but the Middle East has been a mess since WW1. Also, claiming there was WMD’s was bull5hit. Something Blair knew all along.

Interesting that the Telegraph has today ridiculed this honour

when the lifetime peer and Baroness who wrecked the Test and Trace testing from the off to the tune of £35 billion gets away scot free

Any awards for pub landlords who live close to Cabinet Ministers?

Whatever your views on covid policy, fair to say they've had a bloody tough couple of years.
