I'm totally opposed to the House of Lords being peopled by those there because of their birthright, and am against hereditary peerages, but when you have replaced (most) of them with snivelling lackys, cronies, toadying sycophants, and people so lacking in morals such as Baroness Uddin, Lord Taylor of Blackburn, and Lord Ashcroft, we're really no better off.

The sooner we have an elected second Chamber, with people accountable to the public that put them there, the better.

(If only to stop that other waste of space, Mark Thatcher, from eventually taking his seat, and lording it over us.)
