Abolish the unelected House of Lords
Abolish the Lords and replace with a representative elected Senate to oversee Parliament taken from the general population, preferably with no political party affiliation.
Why is this important?
The House of Lords is an anachronism and is stuffed full of politicians cronies and buddy pals sent there as a reward for services rendered to them that is not necessarily to the benefit of the electorate.
We need an accountable second chamber to curb the excesses of the elitist Commons who have lost touch with the electorate.
