Maybe it's time the NY's Honours list got the chop?

I was glad to see Denis Law pick up a gong but this is surely a system past its sell by date?

Too right,

I mean what has Bab's Windsor ever done for us:winking:

Means an awful lot to those "ordinary" people who are recognised for the difference they make in their communities. I think it needs changing, not so many knighthoods or lordships, for example, for ex MPs!

I think the awards should ONLY be given to ordinary people,no actors ,MPs ,sport stars just ordinary folk.

My New Year Resolution is to spot **** stirring and fishing trip wind-ups. I'm doing well, it isn't even NY yet and I've spotted this one already. It's easy really, anything started by Patriot is designed to slag off the UK thus worthy of being totally ignored.

I do think some sports stars, actors and actresses are worthy recipients. Ian Botham, David Beckham, for instance, both of whom have done an awful lot to raise funds and profiles for their respective charities.

If you dont feed a troll it just whiters away and dies in its courdroy jacket,

Change it, don't rid of it completely. And without wanting to feed the troll I want to comment. Have it just for ordinary folk. Like the 14 year old lad that's raised getting on for a quarter of a million quid for cancer research. Just keep the OBE, MBE, BEM etc etc and do away with the non deserved Lordships and peerages that so many complete tossers get awarded.

 

[Napster]

I think all of them are well deserved. Especially Ronald Antonio O'Sullivan

Probably the first pair I ever saw on a TV. For that alone she should be awarded an OB double E

Use to try and stop the video at that moment:smile::smile:
Mind you,it reminds me of a couple of "birds" i knew in the 70s..just had to smile at them...and they would be flashed.
Being the gentleman i am...i had to look

I don't think you're too wrong there. Probably more to do with her open support for a certain political party, than showing her knockers, as a later post suggests. :smile:

Very true...but flashing your knockers does help...
Just ask Harold Wilson or John Major.....or Bill Clinton
