mozz: "Oh, I agree that the article is bow locks, as most of Gully's tend to be, it's just the whole "if anyone other than the OP posts a link, I won't read it" schtick is utterly pathetic." - I have read the link and we already established that the headline is wrong if it is referring to danny's link so I was and usually am with Gulliver, wondering what he has actually read and therefore talking about. Getting him to link to the story HE is talking about would help us address the points made from the position of the OP. Seems logical to me. If I blurted out a loud inaccurate headline you'd all, rightly, press me for where I got the info, I'm simply doing the same.
selling honours - as a con
well my dears - clearly you dont learn from my stories
Mushie dear mushie mentioned that OBE stood for - other bagguz efforts.
when they were invented 1915 to show recognition of war work ( The great war that is!) - they all said war profiteers would get them ( like Viscount Stansgate)
and hem hem - - the P M said to the honours-seller extraordinaire Maundy Gregory - "how much can we get for an OBE" - a thousand I think they answer was ( not sure)
and the P M was - - - lloyd George - Lib and not con for those who just scraped history o level.
Lloyd George had sold the Lord Chancellorship ( chief law officer and speaker of the lords) to the highest bidder ( £100,000 then money) Lord Birkenhead ( old F E Smith) - - and I was always surprised as a law student that Birkenhead wasnt a BAD LC
just trying to bring a seam of common sense into this crazy thread

Let's not forget that the "Cash for Honours Scandal" was under a Labour government:

I think that, even if it was shown that Charles had accepted cash for honours (which it won't be), associating it with the "Cons" would be a mistake. Politics in our country is truly broken, probably beyond all repair ...

weighing and balances occurs in two themes
in hieroglyphic - the old religion had - in the Book of the Dead (sometimes I think that is another name for AB) - weighing of the pharaohs heart against a feather - big thing i Exodus apparently
Ammut gets to eat it if it had been too heavy
and in Aristophanes the Frogs - the authors' one liners are weighed against each other ( cant remember who wins)
Prince Chazza would win in either
