Totally agree Michael. I am constantly astounded by the huge numbers of 'Lord This' and 'Sir That' who are in Westminster and Whitehall. These people are highly paid for doing their jobs, and not always that well it seems, so why are they honoured as well? I believe all retired diplomats are honoured too, why should they be? 🙄 And don't get me started on the House of Lords! 🤬 The honours system needs an urgent overhaul and this automatic gong-fest must stop. Sir Tom is in a different league entirely and I really hope he will be able to have a proper investiture with the Queen.
