Mary Earps Gets an MBE. Are They Serious?

In the News

Mary Earps is going to get a MBE in the New Year's Honours List for making a couple of good saves in a bang average sport against poor opposition.

It's gone beyond a joke now, they are just giving out gongs like confetti.

I'm hoping to get nominated for one next time for going for a crap on my own.

Your thoughts?

I agree, in fact I think the whole system should be scrapped and replaced with one prestigious award for those who serve their fellow man and communities, not for playing sport. Most are self serving folk who do nothing to justify receiving an honour.

Lynibis I'm not quite sure about the Archbishop of Canterbury getting knighted for conducting the Coronation either 🤔

TheChimp I know it is ridiculous when people get honoured just for doing a job they are paid to do.

TheChimp All top or senior Archbishops gets knighted automatically. Especially those with "woke" views. These medals has done its time and needs to be abolish and no replacements sought whatsoever.

Another deeply disturbing societal way of worshipping (undeserving 🤔) people by allowing them a certain titled status. Nonsense.

At least she has done something productive and is inspiring the next generation of women. Some of the people who get these kind of awards have done nothing but like their own pockets

I have absolutely no idea who she is and nor do I care. Whenever the honours list comes out I have no idea who 90% of the people are. If they want to give them an award then let them, it doesn't affect me or my everyday life.

I don't think any should go to famous people, for the most part they are getting very well paid to do something they love.

I guess the only exception being if they do a lot of good for charity.

It's much more heart warming and worthy when local heroes are recognised.
