    Abbott said those absurd knight and dame trinkets were for "pre-eminent Australians". A Greek billionaire living in the UK is Australian?

        @BernardKeane What's really funny is everyone objecting to the "honour" going to a foreign national.The knight/dame thing itself is bizarre

        @simpsubhswf it's just holding Abbott to his own claims. Bizarre or not, they are supposed to be for "preeminent Australians".

        @BernardKeane Acceptance of these embarrassing 'honours' tells us a bit more about the ones who are conferred. I cringe.
