Barbara Kendall calls out sexist Honours system

The Queen's Birthday honours list is soon to be announced and one of our great Olympians has commented on the gender imbalance in who the recipients are. Dame Barbara Kendall says our Honours system needs an overhaul when it comes to the number of sportswomen to get damehoods compared to the number of sportsmen getting knighted. Sportsmen are seven-times more likely to get an honour than women.
