A good example is Prince Harry who seems to be as radically refreshing as a cup of cheap decaffeinated coffee. His squeeze even more so. Two dorks for the price of one, but should we expect anything better?
Having said that, Scrobs' suggestion of Michael Heseltine
seems a good one to me. With all his advantages the man is still unable to put his political
conceits behind him and make the best of where we are.

I was minded to go for Welby for being a good general-purpose ineffectual tit, but I refrain from giving him my support because of his comments in the wake of the Carlile Report into the Church's mishandling of the George Bell paedophile allegations. They are worth checking out, if anyone is in need of sharpening up their anti-clericalism. In my view, they push Welby beyond the boundaries of dorkdom and into scumbaggery, so, Sorry, Justin - not this year!
Instead, I make a heartfelt plea that Clegg be given the prize. He has for several years now languished as the bridesmaid, and 2017 should be his year as bride. He lost his seat - to useless chump Jared O'Mara who himself has good reason to be nominated for DotY. He has published a book called How to Stop Brexit. And he has now, despite being a political failure, accepted a knighthood. I make a heartfelt plea that you honour poor Nick before he sinks completely from sight - it's the last chance we have.
Oh, and another one. Grudge-bearing ex-copper Bob Quick, who resurrected allegations about porn on Damian Green's computer years after the event. Spite and stupidity in equal measure. Although, come to think of it, Green himself is also more than averagely qualified for the DotY award. Porn at work, no knowledge of how to hide browsing history, lying, and opposition to Brexit.
I am humbled, Mr H!
Having just carried out a straw poll with my dog, and a couple of insects hanging round, the votes are as follows...
Welby 8
Quick 9
Corbyn 12
Clegg 19
Heseltine 4,000,463
I case my rest and wish you all on this required reading site, a happy and prosperous 2018!
Sam - all excellent points and maybe there should be more than one DotY because we certainly won't run out. Something like a DotY team of the year would be good. I haven't read the Carlile Report but I'll take a look, although not until next year, it sounds depressing.
Scrobs - interesting voting pattern although I'm sure Clegg will attract more now he is Sir Nicholas. I think the idea behind the knighthood was to make fun of him.
