Boris honours list

I'm very 😲 at Sean (sorry of that's spelled wrong)Bailey, fined for a lockdown party... And Ben Houchen, Teeside Mayor being investigated for fraud... Nice additions to the House of Lords....

I think Johnson was taking the p* with this dishonourable list...

Disgraceful. Some of those awarded organised the Downing Street lockdown parties. Johnson should be brought to the Commons and made to apologise. And a K for the Mogg is a joke.

All of the honours lists seem pretty pathetic to me. There only seem to be a few on any list who are worthy.

Not sure about abolishing the House Of Lords but the numbers are stupidly high in it, a start would be reducing it by half to around 400.

Just heard a conservative commentator on the radio saying he 100% supported Keir Starmer wishing to abolish the House of Lords. Surely this cronyism of. dishing out peerages to nonentities based not on their service to the public, but their service to a disgraced former prime minister brings the whole archaic system into disrepute. I may agree with giving out MBEs to lollipop ladies and the like, but this honours list is scandalous and should be rescinded.

Just saw that Boris’ dog walker, and hairdresser have received honours.

Maybe the dog Walker, but hairdresser! What hairdresser?

😀
Perhaps he meant the dog groomer?

I see Peter Bone hasn’t got anything. He has always been a great supporter of Johnson. I always get him mixed up with Christopher Chope who is a Sir and I’ve always felt he must be envious of him. I would imagine that everything that Johnson has handed out has been with a view to in what way those people will be useful to him in the future.

So can a former disgraced PM still give out gongs?

Doesn’t seem right to me.

It seems absolutely iniquitous to me!! 😡

Well the by election will be interesting. As for the so called honours list, seriously they should be ashamed

Freya5 I think that New Zealand's approach to Covid 19 was, by and large, successful. Yes, it was disruptive but then so is a pandemic. As for being a republican, remember this is the twenty-first century and New Zealand is no longer a colony.

I want to know why Jacinda Ardern, the Lock down Queen of NZ gets a Damehod. . Authoritarianism at its worst. To boot she's a Republican .

JRM must be disappointed. Surely nothing less than a Dukedom would suffice for a man of his stature - or possibly Pope?

He should have been made a nabob, then he’d be Nabob Jacob.

Bit of an oxymoron isn't it it Johnson's honours ?

I just read that Rishi didn't change anything.

I’ve just read that it wasn’t Boris that took her name off but Rishi!

I do genuinely feel very sorry for Nadine Dorries.
It’s clear that she really believed in Johnson.
Until now.
He is a complete bastard

Any sentence which contains the words "Honour" and "Boris Johnson" is an oxymoron..

The full list is on BBC’s twitter feed so it should be on the website. Dacre doesn’t seem to be on it.

Poor Nadine - she could not have been a mote devoted Boris fan.

I keep wondering why these awards and decorations are referred to as "honours". Has there ever been such a disreputable and dissolute government since the fall of the Western Roman Empire? These gongs are a reward for dishonour. If any one of that contemptible bunch ever brushed against me in a crowd, I'd need to shower in disinfectant.

Win or lose it will still cause unwanted hassle for Sunak.
