Gavin Williamson is getting a knighthood.

And I think this sends out a very strong message of hope to everyone who is really shit at their job and sucks up to their boss on a regular basis.

Gavin Williamson getting a knighthood would be proof that, under the Tories, anyone can succeed no matter what your background, as long as you have enough dirt on the Prime Minister.

With Gavin Williamson getting a knighthood it's only fair Nadine Dorries gets recognised too, there must be a panto somewhere looking for a Dame?

The absolutely wonderful satirist The Secret Tory had this one hope.

I hope Gavin Williamson has a nice fireplace to put his knighthood certificate on.

If not, he probably knows where to get one.
