According to the Times, Stanley Johnson is among up to 100 names put forward for honours by the former prime minister.

One assumes Nadine Dorries will be on there somewhere!

A spokesperson for Boris Johnson told the paper: “We don’t comment on honours.”

The Times is reporting that Stanley Johnson has been nominated for a knighthood by Boris Johnson… so this will ignite a row about cronyism & propriety, b/c Caroline Nokes has accused him of touching her inappropriately & it's claimed he broke the jaw of his 1st wife#KayBurley pic.twitter.com/6OCPyUEaIM

Given Stanley Johnson looks set for a knighthood…

It’s him talking about UK immigrants needing population control

Basically, Johnson's Honours List is to remove the word 'Honour'. Rather than recognising the talented or the good, they're taking the entire system back to its Medieval origins of rewarding the corrupt and the cronies.

Not a group most decent people would want to join.

The UK "honours" system is a joke that that has been flagrantly abused by the current uber corrupt kleptocratic Tory cabal to appoint fraudsters like Michele Mone and obvious security risks e.g. Evgeny Lebedev to the House & it should be abolished.

This ain't Democracy this is Plutocracy or Kakistocracy (a government in which the worst people are in charge)
This is Brexit in action.
Only the monarch can change this blatant Favouritism/ Nepotism?
Otherwise we're powerless
