Gerrin there! Hopefully HMTQ will take a harder stance all round with regards Gongs, Awards and the earning and retention of them. Far too many people being awarded them and not taking the responsibility that comes with the award.

*sits and gloats*

I can think of a few dozen I'd strip of them, not including MP's.

How come Archer kept his gong then?



Gio ... your sig made me jump ... I'm on French Telecom

I cant recall now.. something to do with He's a Lord and he'd have to have a bill brought in or somesuch.. cant remember..

Oh and Gio's Sig is harmless. only you can see your details. it's basic webgeekery involving code

Aye, smacks of a soft target to me, although I'm not disagreeing that he deserves to lose his gong. What a wasted talent.

If serious offences cause someone to lose their gong, doesn’t that disqualify half the ageing rock stars that have been gonged in the last few years? Sir Mick and his drug convictions (albeit a long time ago) anyone?
