But, back to the matter in hand. I think that the honours system as it is should be entirely scrapped and replaced by a system of public nomination. Then at least those who do actually get off their backsides and go out of their way to help people and the country would get the recognition they deserve. As opposed to the current system where the majority of awards go to the self-serving, self-satisfied elite. As for stuffing the House of Lords with political appointees, I think I preferred it when it was stuffed with the hereditory Peers. At least they had the distinction of being amusingly eccentric rather than criminally inclined.
D'you know what I mean, luv?
