Their should always be an honours system. However empire and royalty should not be associated with the names of awards. An independent panel of people from all walks of life should be involved in the awards themselves. No political awards should be permitted. Awards should be for extraordinary service for the the country. Political party campaigns should be funded from the public purse, therefore preventing individuals or company's from influencing government policy.

There should be no right to sit in the Upper House of Parliament unless you're elected to it by the people. Even if it remains an appointed chamber, the balance of appointments should reflect the last set of General Election results, it should be cleared out every time there's a General Election- and there should be no religious or aristocratic component.

Constantly industry and government departments are told to innovate and move with the times, yet we see a central government system buried in archaic, costly and corrupt practices with any challenge.
The honours system is only a mere fraction of what needs transformation but it would be a great place to start … especially by removing the elite from the list of recipients who constantly buy their way in.

The upper chamber is a revising chamber. Therefore members must have experience and wisdom. Experience of planning, decision making, evaluating and the like. Scrap 'The Lords' its time now. But release members gradually. Have time to form a new house of graded age and wisdom. Members need experience of being in that chamber to function better there so it cant be elected in line with general elections. Members should sit for e.g. 12 years if still competent. Political parties should not be represented in the upper chamber. Political leaders, the clergy, etc... should have the amount of people they can elect to this house capped.

There are two different issues here.
1 - Honours: ok removing "Empire" is easy and it's arguably anachronistic but it doesn't really affect the system; however, the system is logical (MBE local impact, OBE national impact, KBE international impact - making the argument for keeping an international reference to it); clearly those who are more powerful/successful are more likely to have a greater impact, would you want to remove the link between impact and recognition? That would be in fundamental conflict of the meritocratic basis of not only our society but nature itself.
2 - the structure of Parliament. Having an unelected revisionary body (in the House of Lords) is good as it doesn't set up a conflict in electoral mandate yet allows what are supposed to be the best within our society to improve legislation. The issue isn't in having a HoL but in their term, how they're appointed, and the underlying issue is the flawed party political system within the electoral process and preselection of candidates interacting with the unattracttlive role (due to press, comparitively low renumeration, lack of effectiveness, etc.)

The best part, no Brits are discussing or even aware how horrible leaving the EU is for the economy. The UK is going to spend the next 10 to 15 years continuing to spiral. As an American, I enjoyed spending Christmas in London, it was so freaking cheap! Staying in Westminster, a 2 minute walk from Buckingham for less than $100 USD a night is phenomenal. Thanks for a very inexpensive holiday.

With the current system, shouldn't it be restricted to one set of nominations per elected government. Not linked to the number of PMs we have during that term? We're basically rewarding incompetence with the current arrangements.
Personally I feel like we should have an elected upper house, selected and elected by the people. It should be stocked with the finest minds in key fields, Legal, business, education, health, arts etc., rather than the rabble we have at the moment.
