And Rob Burrow for his immense courage in adversity clap

Team mates until the end.

I often think unless you have played rugby you don't really understand close teamwork and love for your fellow players.

Personally, I think no-one should be made a 'Sir' unless they can demonstrate a decent ability to wield a sword in anger!! 🙂

Gone from 'old boy's network' to 'populism' ... I firmly predict we'll see our first drag-queen in the House of Lords during this Parliament! 😀

No issues with that, except I would prefer there to be no reference to ‘Empire’

"Does the King have no power of veto then ?"

Yes he does -- and so did our late queen's consort. Prince Philip consistently over many decades vetoed any kind of award for the late, great, Englishman David Niven: A man who did not run off to California in the war like so many thespians of the time but stayed and fought in the navy. While the British great and the good of the theatre and movies were all getting awards post war -- many were knighted -- the Duke of Edinburgh assiduously crossed out Niven's name from the lists for anything whenever he saw it. He held the grudge right up until David's death in 1983. He and (Sir) Roger Moore were neighbours of mine in the early 80's in Chateau d'Oex. We both attended David's funeral. Afterwards Moore told me the reason David was left out in the cold was because he got slightly tipsy (as he was want to do) at one of Princess Margaret and the then Princess Elizabeth's popular soirees in Buck House. Unfortunately Philip overheard David saying to someone "oh God, she's with that greasy Greek again". He never forgot.
