So it's about REAL POWER then! Not about revising proposed legislation in order to get good laws. Just more snouts in the trough seeking REAL POWER!!
Get rid of the bishops! OK, onward secular soldiers! Get rid of the cross-benchers! OK, no more independent thinking. Get rid of the hereditaries. No more of the Earl of Onslow or Countess of Mar, who can both see a spin merchant at 50 yards!
Just more politicians seeking to create more mayhem. Couldn't it just be that their Lordships serve us well in keeping the more contentious legislation in check?
