What was said
"I would do it by the stripping of honors. It seems to me that the, it is entirely appropriate that people like May be stripped of her peerage. I think it is entirely appropriate that Blair be stripped of the garter. And this seems, there needs to be an act of public shaming."
David Starkey proposed that former Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Theresa May should be stripped of their honors as an act of public accountability for their role in destroying Britain's constitutional framework. He compared them to appeasement-era politicians who will be remembered as 'guilty men' in future histories. Starkey argued this public shaming is necessary while stopping short of punitive legal measures.
