Article Name

Boris Johnson and Liz Truss both resigned as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in 2022, both published their resignation honours in 2023. What is the logic for using 2022 in Johnson's list and 2023 in Truss's? Robin S. Taylor (talk) 21:03, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Came here with the same question. Every other list I've found has been issued in the same year as the prime minister in question resigned, so it's not clear to me whether the logic should be the year the resignation occurred or the year the list was issued. estar8806 (talk) ★ 01:24, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The 2019 Dissolution Honours weren't published until mid-2020, whereas New Year Honours (including the ones simultaneous with Truss's) are published a few days before the new year, so it's clear that lists should be named after the year of the event they're commemorating, not the year of publication. I recommend merging this page with 2022 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours.

I've tried a different format where they're both on the same page. Robin S. Taylor (talk) 10:26, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

According to gov.uk, the 2019 Dissolution Honours were called "Dissolution Peerages 2019". While the Resignation Honours for Johnson Truss were called "Resignation Honours: June 2023" and "Resignation Honours: December 2023" Mike Rohsopht (talk) 12:24, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why not use just their names without a year? -- DeFacto (talk). 11:21, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to agree with your point but the Cabinet Office refer to them as the 2023 resignation honours and so should adopt that name even if it fails logical tests. Keirstitt (talk) 20:04, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
