My reaction to the news that Labour in Scotland's failed branch manager Anas Sarwar has been allowed to fail upwards in a blatant example of political cronyism and will be buggering off to the Lords, tragically, he's not taking Jackie Baillie with him.

The next time a 'Labour socialist' tells you that they advocate for the abolishion of The House of Lords, Just remind them how many they have packed in there in times gone by & how many they have now.

Numbers of Labour supporters pointed at Lords Reform as a sign that Starmer’s government was actually going to be radical, comparing it to Blair’s devolution, telling me I was wrong to be cynical.
Starmer in 2020: "Abolish the House of Lords - replace it with an elected chamber of regions and nations"
Govt minister this morning, after Starmer announces the creation of 25 new peers: "We will be bringing forward reforms in the future"

Why TF is Michelle Mone being asked to stand down as a Tory peer and not being removed? Of course she's going to defy calls to stand down, she's a greedy, callous bitch.

Tarzan looked good more recently compared to the final (I hope) incarnation of Tory trash! Redwood looked impossibly stupid but there was always a darkness about him. Bozo made him a peer. Daniel Hannan too.

Apparently some are salaried - committee chairs, Speaker and Government ministers. I never realised that till I looked it up last night! I still think the vast majority of the 800+ members of HoL are leeches.
