Kind of makes a joke of the system, whatever that is these days. One of my sporting heroes, but come on.

It really shouldnt be a poitical honour- let alone one which is a one issue honour. Very american to celebrate partiality.

I would like to use a review on this one.
Populist decisions to give anachronistic titles to sportsmen & celebrities is one thing, but this is taking primitive populism to a new level.

The biggest benefit is that If we have a no deal Brexit, it will stop The Last Baron's internet mysteriously disconnecting everytime he's asked why he wants a no deal Brexit.

Hammond is going to be the interesting one. Will he want a peerage, or prefer to keep open the option of attempting to become PM at a later date?

“Ex-cricketer Sir Ian Botham 'to be made a lord as reward for Brexit loyalty'”

If ever there was a headline that summed up this bunch of chunts. A peerage for f*cking over the UK. People used to get beheaded for this kind of thing. Ah, TWTD.
