What the petition asks

A petition for the total abolition of the Honours system including the House of Lords.

The award of honours has become so devalued owing to the type's of recipient who are now considered worthy of awards such as Politicians, Actors, Singers and Athletes.
As to the why I'm asking the Government or Parliament to implement this change, it is because only the Government or Parliament has the power to legislate for such change.
