Re: New Years Honours.
I did once look at nominating someone, but was put off by the amount of support needed from others. I think that Ken Hargreaves already has a gong. but if not I would nominate him.

Ken Hargreaves already has the M.B.E.. would you want to re-nominate him for presiding over the mass destruction of the industry in Accrington and the North West by his Government?

Re: New Years Honours.
