  2. The #UK is ejecting hereditary #nobles from #Parliament after 700 years

    By Jill Lawless, March 11, 2026

    Excerpt: "Centuries of British political tradition will end within weeks after Parliament voted to remove hereditary #aristocrats from the unelected House of Lords.

    "On Tuesday night members of the upper chamber dropped objections to legislation passed by the House of Commons ousting dozens of #dukes, #earls and #viscounts who inherited seats in Parliament along with their aristocratic titles.

    "Government minister Nick Thomas-Symonds said the change put an end to 'an archaic and undemocratic principle.'

    " 'Our parliament should always be a place where talents are recognized and merit counts,' he said. 'It should never be a gallery of old boysโ€™ networks, nor a place where titles, many of which were handed out centuries ago, hold power over the will of the people.' "

    Not being on #Twitter we can miss all the #Royalist bots ripping into that couple that turned their back on all that regressive, racist nonsense.
    Whatever tiny details they are upset about dont matter to our lives in any way.
