Hey Brits, why doesn't the Queen knight Roger Daltrey? |

She knighted Paul McCartney and Mick Jagger. Or is it that Roger doesn't have enough money?

The Queen doesn't get much choice, with only a few honours remaining in her personal gift...it's on the recommendation of the Prime Minister most of the time :eyes:

7. i still trying to figure out why the queen |
|
hasn't brought me into "the most noble order of the garter."
i would settle for supernumerary knighthood.
