When you look at the recipients and what they have or have not done,surely most people must ask why such a system should continue.
I suppose that while singing a few songs is considered more worthwhile than working in a factory, it may well continue !
We don't see too many lathe / milling machine operators receiving their knighthoods !
But again, are there any manufacturing people left in the UK ?
