Had me worried
Is that in recognition of her apology to Ched Evans?
Thought not.
If she didn't want it, why agree for her nomination to be considered? Why not just say No at that stage? The reason is that you then can't do the grandstanding bit later
I know people who have folders marked 'project gong' .. :-)
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Pleading guilty on this one...
Case in point:
Philip Green
Fred Goodwin
Samantha Cameron's hair stylist
Alfred John Smith, facilities manager at 10 Downing Street who has been awarded an OBE for “services to No.10”
anyone in entertainment with 5 minutes of fame
It's a stinking crock of sh*te as far as I am concerned. Too many gongs for worthless people who are part of 'the network', utterly cack businessmen who stomp over others to get to the top, people who buy one, people who just 'did their job' and got paid handsomely for it anyway.

But I do also believe that some people get honours deservedly, including most of the OBEs and MBEs that I know personally - these are people who have made a genuine contribution to society and are not the sort to push themselves forward to get recognition. And for cases like those I believe that @ThorpyFX knows how the process works, so I trust his word on it more than I would my own cynical instincts.
