...well, that's another year gone by without my Knighthood...... Best I ever managed was a Buck House Garden party invite "For services to....?" (Have that one on me). At least, nobody still knows where I live.

Wouldn't worry about it if they did T&E, even the most hardened of criminals would think twice about venturing onto your manor...😉

...no sweat!...
Actually, I'm rather more than a little miffed.
If the bar has been set so low that Ian Dunkin' Donut can be knighted, then why aren't all we lot heading for the Lords?

I suppose knighthoods for MPs come through seniority - but even so this was a bad call, by Theresa it seems rather than Boris. IDS was the man who brought in universal credit in such a crass way that many people dependent on benefits got nothing for several weeks. And he appeared not to care.

Must be some dreadful mistake TnE.
My contact on the committee assured me that you were "a certainty for a K" when I gave him your cheque. They were just waiting for Alison Saunders' cheque to arrive but scoffed "There's no way that incompetent fool will get a second gong!"

My contact on the committee assured me that you were "a certainty for a K" when I gave him your cheque. That's a relief; I thought my "contribution" had been "lost in the post" along with John Bercow's. They were just waiting for Alison Saunders' cheque to arrive but scoffed "There's no way that incompetent fool will get a second gong!" ....oh, that's a little unfair;She wasn't that bad in Ab Fab......

To quote the oft misquoted. "Any club that would have me as a member..." And now that IDS is a member, It really is a club I want no part of.
