King Charles strips 9 people of MBEs and OBEs - including Owl Sanctuary founder
Nine UK honours were revoked for criminal convictions, professional censure, or conduct discrediting the honours system, including Paul Rose for animal welfare offences.
- A Gazette notice on Thursday, March 5, announced King Charles has stripped nine people of honours, including Paul Allen Rose, for reasons such as criminal convictions.
- The Cabinet Office's forfeiture process explains that cases are referred to the Honours Forfeiture Committee, which advises the monarch based on grounds like serious crimes or conduct that 'brings the honours system into disrepute'.
- In May 2024, Paul Allen Rose pleaded guilty to two counts of causing unnecessary suffering and one of failing to ensure animal welfare, receiving a 20-week jail sentence suspended for two years.
- The list also cites several other named individuals, including Stuart Hogg, former rugby captain, Ian Ashbold , Lloyd Hamilton , and Angela Middleton , removed this year for convictions or 'bringing the honours system into disrepute'.
- Formal thresholds for removal state that a prison sentence of three months or more, professional censure by relevant bodies, or misconduct that 'brings the honours system into disrepute' can trigger forfeiture under honours system criteria.
