A peerage for Bercow? You're having a right giraffe there me old china.

If Bercow had done his job properly, acted impartially and not tried to derail the will of the people he would be sitting in his Ermine right now.

As I'm sure most on here know by now I am in the abolish the HOL and replace with an elected body camp.

Abolish the RF too, but dont elect any more :-)

As for Sir Ian, it does nt seem right that he gets it for being pro Brexit but I dont trust the MSM so need to understand the reason from the PM's gob.

[Bobbisox1]

I admire what he's done for charity , no question of that but as it's been said, he's already a Knight , why a peerage?

[teacake44]

Smacks of jealousy and bitterness.

[Bobbisox1]

In reference to who?

[teacake44]

[Bobbisox1]

[dannyk13]

Bobbie, just had a look but can't see what TC is on about.Never mind it i isn't important.

[Bobbisox1]

Yr right it isn't at all important , back to the OP ( hopefully )

[Gromit]

Nothing for Marcus Rashford then ?

[Peter Pedant]

nothing for Marcus Rashfor because it was Lord Botham who brought home the Brexit bacon !

[Old_Geezer]

Well all us deserve to be, for standing up to all the remoaning and acting to get our sovereignty returned. Difficult to find a more worthy act to honour with some title or gong.

I am really not sure how much good Beefy's support did for Brexit but when he was at the height of his fame, he gave up quite a few nights to ride around on the top of a Mini in the various Somerset Carnivals. I belive he stayed on at the end of each procession to sign autographs too....and it was FREEZING that year...the carnivals are in November.
