Honours in the United Kingdom.

A knighthood for Bono is a further example of the total irrelevance of the whole charade.

If we must endure the award of these meaningless baubles to mainly irrelevant people can we at least ensure that those rewarded reside in the United Kingdom for taxation purposes and that we do not make non-UK citizens part of the whole Gilbert and Sullivan experience.

The whole process has come so debased that the time has surely come to stop the Prime Minister (any Prime Minister) awarding honours at all.
