On the face of it, the so-called honours are the Queen’s way of saying thank you to
so many good people.
That is the long running myth.
So many of the recipients of the so-called honours are exposed each year as
criminals that people know the system is corrupt.
Later today, a group Dishonours, is calling on MPs to table and move
an Early Day Motion to scrap the system.
If there is to be any real honours for good deeds then those should be done by
an ethical and independent process where the public can vet the claimed merits.
A democratic, peoples’ audit and ethical recognition of truly good deeds should be introduced.
