A long overdue honour for one of the country's greatest cricketers - from the era when cricketers were sportsmen first and "celebrities" second.
Controversial, it's bound to be, but for me, "Congratulations Sir Geoffrey Boycott" - one of Theresa May's better decisions!

Sorry, M but I totally disagree. Then again I think the Honours system is a shambles, full of cronyism, pay back for favours done and too easily brought into disrepute.
As for Boycott. Someone should give him a slap, preferably a woman!

We normal mortals don’t get honours for doing our daily jobs no matter how well we do them. All these honours for so called personalities, sportsmen/women, politicians and civil servants need to be stopped in favour of ordinary people who contribute so much to our society doing what they do often without reward
