Cameron 'abused' honours system with knighthoods for Tory favourites
DAVID CAMERON was accused yesterday of “abusing” the honours system yesterday after revealing plans to dish out knighthoods to three Tory pals leaving the government.
Axed ex-ministers Alan Duncan, Hugh Robertson and Oliver Heald are all in line to be nominated for sympathy honours by the Prime Minister.
Mr Robertson and and Mr Duncan are set to take on the archaic titles of “Knights Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George,” according to the Evening Standard.
