Baron Martin?

So Ex-Speaker Martin - the first Speaker to be 'ousted' for more than 300 years - is to be 'ennobled'.

And what a surprise - not, that this announcement was done in a very 'quiet' way via the London Gazette.

Is it not incredible that all these 'failed' Parliamentarians seem to receive 'promotion', or as in this case, 'honoured' - and for what? Being the failures they are? Heaven knows what 'promotion' they would receive were they successful!

Can Parliament sink any lower? Probably - Yes!
