Best laugh this year.
Of 'privileged' course it should get the chop, but no need for Madame-G. But even less chance of that than a speedy Brexit.
Be interesting to see if the commentariat on here who swallowed the Referendum result elation pill fall for this hilarious nonsense,
"The Prime Minister is also working on a new list of peers. They are due to be unveiled towards the end of January. Former cabinet member David Liddington and Patrick McLoughlin are expected to be ennobled." --- even the Donald would recognise this as 'fake news(paper)

Sevenop still bitter about Brexit are you?
I am in general a traditionalist and consider some of our older traditions as quaint and worth the trouble they occasionally cause..
However Brexit has shown in stark evidence how unelected knowitalls think they can do anything and everything to change a democratic decision.
For me they simply went beyond the pale and no longer deserve the respect they have been given.
A second chamber of elected representatives that have no more than perhaps three consecutive terms in office should shake them up a bit.
There is no getting away with the fact career politicians will always get to be MPs and such like. It’s basically all they know and strive for.
I would have MPs no younger than 35 who have had at least 15yrs in the normal workplace. And that does not include going from university to an intern with a political party or candidate etc.
But that will never happen.

Cassa. I totally agree! I have been saying this for years. I also think that every MP in the Commons should have at least 5 years experience in the workplace (and also teachers for that matter)!
