TORY donors and fatcat bosses have been showered with top accolades in today's New Year Honours List.
Downing Street also slipped out Liz Truss's long-awaited resignation honours at the same time. The shameless ex-PM bestowed honours cronies on 11 one for every four-and-a-half days she was in Downing Street.
A long list of tycoons were named as Sirs and Dames in the New Year Honours List, including Addison Lee taxi mogul John Griffin, who donated more than £ 4 million to the Tories.
Brexit-backing Wetherspoon boss Tim Martin, left, who has given money to the Tories in the past, also got a knighthood.
Other wealthy supporters were also recognised in the honours, which is supposed to recognise selflessness and heroism.
The list included 10 donors or partners of donors who have contributed £7.8million to Tory coffers between them. These include philanthropist Cristina Taylor, wife of oil tycoon lan Taylor, who was made a Dame.
Taylor, who gave £2.8million to the Tories, previously withdrew his name for a knighthood amid a cronyism row over David Cameron's resignation honours.
