Business question from Andrew Mackinlay (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 30 March 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
: May we have a statement about senior civil servants getting honours? I should like to know why Sir Nigel Crisp was given a peerage. My working-class constituents get the sack if they screw up and, if they think that that is wrong, have to muster the courage to go to an industrial tribunal to argue for unfair dismissal. Why is it so different for senior people? Is there not a culture in our society that means that the ones who make the biggest cock-ups get the highest rewards?
