Rejected petition End the routine attachment of the prefix 'honourable' - unmodified or modifed, to the names of MPs

More details

In the current climate of dishonour, brought about by serial improprieties and unabated behaviours, there is no justification in continuance of the term 'honourable' when addressing MPs. It serves no useful purpose; government should end it.
