Really? I always thought the honors list was a brilliant marketing scheme. There is no currency more valuable to humans than the admiration of their fellows, and here is a way for the Queen to hand out doses of that admiration, at no cost to herself whatsoever.

Brilliant. No downside.

If I were offered a knighthood, or ladyship, or whatever, I'd turn it down. Silly idea.

Agree.

Especially the knighthood part.
