Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #houseoflords, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Keir #Starmer is reportedly planning to send Morgan #McSweeney to the #HouseOfLords in his #ResignationHonours.

    #PaulHolden's book "The Fraud" exposed McSweeney's conspiracy. He has extra info to show that McSweeney is unfit for a #peerage.

    McSweeney is also the man who pushed for #Mandelson to be appointed aa British Ambassador to the USA. That too should disqualify and him.

  10. My plea to MPs: this is the final chance to save the assisted dying bill. Make your mark on history | Polly Toynbee
    By Polly Toynbee

    Any MP not voting for it on Friday will condemn thousands of us to die in agony. The public is hugely in favour too, so do the right thing

  12. #Starmer's ''reforms' have taken the UK's #HouseOfLords from 85% appointed cronies to 96% appointed #cronies. He ejected the 92 #HereditaryPeers, but kept the 26 bishops and about 700 cronies.

    It's over a century since the Parliament Act 1911 promised the UK an elected upper house, but not "immediately". The number of elected members remains 0%. Zilch. Nada. Nothing.

    96% appointed cronies. And they call it "democracy".
