The House of Lords is like Broadband in Caithness......an expensive, out of date and totally ineffectual anachronism. It appears to be jam-packed (nearly 800 of them) with people like the Earl of Caithness, who lives in Oxfordshire, retired trades union officials whose socialist principles seem to have fled at the prospect of a comfy seat to sleep in and subsidised food and drink and Church of England bishops. It should be abolished, not "reformed".
There is no need for a second chamber, only an informed and effective opposition.
The Lib-Dems are proposing that these parasites are given a salary of £50,000 a year and (after election) left in place for 15 years. Well, that secures a place at the trough for all the MPs we manage to shed in the future.
