New Year Honours 2016: Lynton Crosby knighthood criticised by Labour per the Labour Party media arm the BBC News

The BBC's lead report on the New Year's honours http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-35201149 leads on Labour's faux outrage about Lynton Crosby.

'... Mr Burnham said the strategist's knighthood suggested "the Tories think they can get away with whatever they like"."

It is a timely reminder that Labour must make it a new year's resolution to stop facing inwards and expose them for what they are," he added.

Fellow Labour MP Graham Jones added: "The honours system is supposed to recognise dedicated public service, not simply be a vehicle to reward Tory cronies and donors."'

Of course Rosie Winterton this year and other Labour politicians and such as Philip Gould in previous years are irrelevant to the Labour Party hypocrites and their willing allies at the Labour Party mouthpiece the BBC. 

Happy New Year!
