So. The wonderful woman who runs Park Lane Stables, which provides riding for disabled children and for which she has had to put in an almighty fundraising effort just to keep it afloat, gets an MBE. Two young lads who have made huge efforts over many months to raise hundreds of thousands for charities get a BEM each.

Tony Blair, who lied to this country about WMDs and whose part in the invasion of Iraq helped to kill hundreds of thousands of civilians and who made our country a favourite target for Islamic terrorists, gets the highest honour in the land, bestowed personally by the Queen. She must be mad, poor dear.

Well I believe in an honours system. But when I see incredibly dodgy people such as Blair and business barons getting the top gongs, and really dedicated people sacrificing everything for their communities getting the scraps, and thousands of NHS and care workers who have worked their fingers selflessly to the bone in extremely difficult and dangerous conditions getting no recognition at all, from now on I'm going to turn the honours list upside down.
