But it's just getting rid of the remaining hereditary peers? Like, yes that's undemocratic, but the real problem with the lords is that they're in there for life. The second issue being that none of them are elected, hereditary or not. And what's even the point of House of Lords reform if the Lords Spiritual are kept around?
I'd forgotten this but in 2022 they were planning to scrap the lords completely and replace it...
...then their manifesto included just cutting the hereditary peers and imposing retirement on lords over the age of 80...
...and now they've cut that second part.
They suck so much. Even when they're doing something I agree with there's just no ambition. A massive majority going to waste.
Rail renationalisation good, no-fault eviction ban good. Conversion therapy ban good in theory, but given their stance on trans people I'm skeptical.
