We don't have to listen to all those people. We can just do our own stuff. I am deciding what the word of the year for 2025 is and who is receiving my special new year honours (not a euphemism). I am knighting you all. MBEs and CBEs and OBEs for all. Order of the Benish Empire. It entitles you to call yourself whatever the hell you want and you can redeem it against a free meal round at my gaff. Also everyone has to be nice to you or we'll raise an army to destroy them. Word of the year is Blobby.

Wow! Everything's enshittified but Booglin'. Turns out this Mary PoppBens is an amazing person. So many unacknowledged achievements. Cooks a mean free meal. Err. Mean as is in good, not mean as in Mr Scrooge.

Tbh, I had no idea how saintly they are. I strongly recommend sending them the sum of £1,000,000. My cheque's already in the mail.

Gods damn it.

This was all sounding intriguing until you spoke that profanity "B**bby".

@TheBreadmonkey@beige.party Maybe an Order of the Bennish Empire and an Earldom. Then I could be an EarlOBE.

@TheBreadmonkey Thanks for the honour. I’m considering whether to accept. Do you have to come at us with a sword, or is the honour bestowed remotely? There’s a medal though yeah? 🥉 #Blobby

@TheBreadmonkey Be careful - in Australia we had a Prime Minister who did this. Decided on his own to revert the Order of Australia back to knighthoods (which had been separated from royal British Honours in the 70s.) The first worthy recipient, according to Tony Abbott?

Prince Philip.

He was pushed out of office within months.

I take it on the chin: PM stands by knighthood decision

Prime Minister Tony Abbott has admitted his decision to award Prince Philip a knighthood has been a distraction and says he'll consult more in future.
