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 hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"
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?
