Re: Are these people a special case

In refererence to 'another paid tier of government', if the current hereditary/crony filled House of Lords was abolished in favour of a more democratic, elected body, we are already paying for it now.

It isn't 'free'.

It costs £152,500,000.00 per annum....and that doesn't include all the fiddling that's been going on, by the 'noble' Lords.
