Just a little side note, I heard on the radio that the last of the inbreds unelected lords will be got rid of soon [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img]
What is significant about this is that it was a labour *safe seat* - rather than a marginal. The conservatives expected to come lose there.

As for the Lords reform, the unelected hereditary peers will finally disappear - to be replaced by unelected PM appointed peers. Some reform!
