Ian Hislop says UK honours system is 'permanently ludicrous' | Andrew Marr on LBC

As calls grow for former Post Office boss Paula Vennells to lose her CBE in the wake of the Horizon scandal, Andrew Marr speaks to Private Eye Editor Ian Hislop. Private Eye were one of the first news outlets to cover the scandal, with Nick Wallis and Richard Brooks' special report uncovering 'How the Post Office wrecked the lives of its own workers.'
