Northern Ireland people most likely to receive an honour from the Queen

Anyone desiring a Queen s Birthday or New Year honour might want to consider moving to Northern Ireland, after it was revealed that people here are the most likely in the UK to be given a gong. The awards are handed out every year to famous and deserving figures in the arts, science, politics and charitable sectors after the Queen approves nominations received from the Government. Since 2016 Northern Ireland has punched above its weight in the list, with people here having received twice as many New Year honours per head of population compared to London, according to the Sunday Times. Since 2016, 5,760 New Year honours have been handed out, with those living in London having received 58% of them, despite southern England and London being home to only 45% of the population.
