The ‘knighthood’ for this muppet IBS shows the honours system for what it is - rewards for the rich and self-entitled as well as a form of bribery for political favours.

They are nothing short of a disgrace.

Some more than others - the ones in blue more than most.

Total scumbags.

Yeah and I bet all those petitioners are Remainers. FFS get over it. How many Remainers are currently sitting in the Lords and with one way or another getting money from the EU . Hypercritical w@nkers

The only Conservative candidate to lose his seat at the GE who was a Conservative MP before the GE was Zak Goldsmith. Now elevated to the House of Lords! So he won in the end a job for life.

Wow! What an incredible piece of information signed by approx 0.3% of the population, does this startling fact therefore say that 99.7% either don’t care or support him. Statistics can prove anything. Not quite sure of the connection to Leyton Orient but suppose IDS is MP for Chingford and Woodford which is quite close.

Happy New Year
