The Right Honourable
editTaylor is a baron and therefore has the honorific of The Right Honourable. This not linked with be a member of the Privy Counsel which is indicated with the post-nom of "PC" in peers. So, "|honorific-prefix = The Right Honourable" is correct. It is not about consensus in the case, but correctness. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 19:07, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

- Thank you for the ping. By virtue of being a baron in the peerage of the UK Taylor is entitled to the style 'The Right Honourable'. When writing to a peer that is not a member of the privy council, 'The Right Honourable' is simply truncated to 'The'. I think that this may be the source of contention. Equally, you would not write an invitation to 'His Grace the Duke of Devonshire'. You'd just say 'The Duke of Devonshire, [postnominals]'. (Debretts). I would leave the style in the infobox. It is part of his title but customary to leave out of correspondence. · | (talk - contributions) 14:28, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
