Well deserved

Fabulous news.

Sharron was nominated by Kemi Badenoch.

The Leader of the Opposition is allowed a certain number of nominations in every Honours List, so what's your point?

Dollymylove · 10/12/2025 20:42

Go Sharron 😍😍😍

GrooveArmada · 10/12/2025 20:42

Very pleased about this. Well deserved!

I lived near Ms Davies for many years when she was married to Derek Redmond. As I was always taught "if you can't say anything good about someone, say nothing" I shall leave it there.

A pity you didn't take note of what you were taught and not bother posting at all.

Well as you haven't said nothing, I'll assume you only have good things to say about her.

I'm delighted for her, she's been a voice of reason in recent years when it's much needed.

MrsOvertonsWindow · 10/12/2025 20:26

This is such good news. She's a fantastic advocate for women's sport.

I don't believe that. Nope. Didn't happen.

Well done, Baroness Sharron!

😆Well I'll concede the good lady has a great name😉 so I'm sure she's adorable!

ProfDrILikeDungs · 10/12/2025 20:00

This is wonderful news and so very deserved.

She should have had the gold medal as well, but nobody cared enough so the cheating East Germans got it instead (I don't blame the athletes, they were used by their state). She is now fighting for fairness in women's sport. She will be an excellent sensible voice for justice.

Apropos of nothing, I find that disingenuous people are usually a lot less clever than they think they are.

I shall leave it there.

Brilliant

If it's parking related we will need a diagram.

SirChenjins · 10/12/2025 19:36

Excellent news - well deserved!

MinnieCauldwell · 10/12/2025 19:32

Sharon dis a huge amount of fund raising for MS.

JanesLittleGirl · 10/12/2025 19:29

GreenSoapandSeeds · 10/12/2025 18:57

From someone who lived near her 25 years ago, no less. I wonder what Sharron did to upset the neighbours. I bet it’s got something to do with recycling

My money's on an AIBU type parking issue.

Sharron was nominated by Kemi Badenoch.

Well we didn't think it was Sir Keir or Lisa Nando's!

illuminada · 10/12/2025 19:26

Oh the bitter idiots are crawling out of the woodwork!

SwirlyGates · 10/12/2025 19:25

From the BBC, "The Tories said it was in recognition of her sporting achievements and her campaigning on women's rights." Yay.

@IdentifyingAsAWoollyMammoth I used to work for a v large company. My manager told me SD had once telephoned in and actually said, " do you know who I am?"

No,said my manager! 😂

Gerat news for women. An advocate in the HoL!

PrizedPickledPopcorn · 10/12/2025 19:08

She’ll be targeted with character assassinations. The bile being spewed about SP is awful.

You do realise this post makes you look like the dick who was probably the nightmare neighbour and not her don't you? 😂
