Re: House of Lords Reform (none / 1)
Sadly, it is the usual special interests carve up.

I've never really thought about the best way to reform the lords, but I remember that Blly Bragg had a couple of smart idea back in the mid 90s.

I can't find a link to it now but it was something to do with having large constituencies and having 2 or 3 members per constituency.

What the heck are the bishops doing there ?
