Even in the 'voluntary sector' (cold phrase that somehow) I'd turn one down, it just wouldn't mean anything to me :|

Still a damn sight more honourable than most politicians. He is right that politicians do not deserve honours for doing their job. That should also apply to the head of the Metropolitan Police. Far too many business men who have made donations to the Tory party in this news years honours as well.

Allegedly Danny Boyle turned down a knighthood.
