Not much makes me really angry but Tony Bliar being made a Sir has burst my blood vessels. The guy should be in jail let alone honoured 😠.

His real crime was forcing socialism on the UK. It's a shame capital punishment was abolished but now that we're out of the dreaded EU, we can bring it back.

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

If you want to see a far better example of what the system is supposed to reward ....

Has he seriously been given a knighthood? Wouldn't surprise be yet is shocking at the same time. A shitehood indeed.

Blair is to knightly chivaly what Zyklon B is to fresh air.

He has been made Sir Tony, and made a member of the order of the garter. 

You may or may not know this is an honour bestowed at the personal action if the sovereign and stands alone outside the rest of the honours system

I don't know a lot about how the system works, but it is my understanding that the queen's failure to give this T@@@ an honour has done the equivalent of bedblocking the political honours system

I assume Liz has decided she won't be around much longer and thus won't have to deal with the smug T@@@.

Actually, now I think about it, I have to wonder if the failure to "honour" the (can't use the word, the mods would have to ban me) is actually down to Philip detesting the smarmy bastard

If so, I may have seriously misjudged the man.

The honours system has been a standing joke for as long as anyone can remember another jester won't make a bit of difference. 
Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!

We are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some of us have yachts. Some of us have canoes. Some of us are drowning.
