He deserves the best Honour imo, not just for contributions to music but for his determination and courage to conquer his demons and demonstrate to us all that you can turn around a bad situatation into good one. Not only that, but in dealing with himself he has healed and comforted all those who have listened over the years.
Anyone who survives a childhood like he survived, and who does not resort to self destruction, deserves a medal. The chronic social phobia he has only recently overcome. He's obviously chuffed with himself that he can do interviews now, the fight in him obviously doesn't stop. In one interview I saw last year, he was told that he was a "British treasure" and he looked taken a back, but it appeared to warm his heart.
He's a fighter and a winner. He could so easily have been a loser.
I don't know what the process is, but if he needs nominating I guess we need to nominate him |

Tell me if i am wrong but i thought he was really appreciated in UK !... and i think to have read , i don't remember where now , an article about the fact he would have received something , a price or anything else from the hands of the Queen herself . There's a Spanish video in the net where he receives a price but don't remember the link ... But he has the Honours of my heart for his music and his way of life anyway !! 
Yes of course we would like to see him again with seventeen years old and always composing progressive music but don't forget that everybody becomes old one day and he makes now the music in totally harmony with his own way of thinking and his age . i think you are a little bit rough when you say after The Killing Fields there is no interesting albums except Amarok , Tubular Bells 2 is really good for me and TSODE has given me much emotional satisfaction ... and Music of the spheres is so so beautiful ...
