Er...no I wouldn't.
I may be many things, but I am a man of my word.
I don't believe in the honours system.
Doubly so, as a republican.
Remember, for every nice lollipop lady, there's also a hundred Whitehall pen pushers, receiving a similar gong.
Merely for getting the 7.20 to Waterloo every day...after already being paid a more than generous salary, for their efforts.
Personally I think the whole antiquated system stinks, and should be scrapped.
