        PC Palmer spent his life as a serviceman & Policeman. He lost his life defending the core of democracy he should be posthumously knighted

        Well deserved for some. Not convinced that a lifetime of acting or selling frozen food should reach the threshold of a knighthood.

        Pleased for all three to be recognised, but sad the Policeman got murdered! Must say though, ALL service personnel should be rewarded.

        The best reward would be an ousted Tory party and a reversal to the cuts and pay freeze. They've endured a lot in the last few years.

        Great shout for PC Palmer. Damehood for Julie Walters long, long overdue imo-she is one of our finest, most versatile actresses-I love her!

        No offense #BBC, but there should be national mourning for #GrenfellTower victims - #QueensBirthdayHonours can wait.
