Heart of Honours

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: The whole honours system is an outdated anachronism.

That those honours determined and awarded directly by the Queen are the cleanest is one of the best arguments for constitutional monarchy rather than a (potentially corrupt) republic.

   

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: I think the public are mostly aware of where the stenches are and who it is that smells. No amount of honouring the dishonourable can change them. The quickest fix would be for those honourable peers to publicly reject their honours because they do not wish to be associated with the malodorous ne'er-do-wells. Also our newspapers, especially DT should do more on the name and shame.
